These were classic Victorian townhouses facing directly onto Regents Park in Central London. The development was undertaken in the mid nineties, funded by an African Business Cartel. Pyramid Builders Ltd’s works were carried out over a 1 year contract with large areas of brickwork completely rebuilt internally and externally.
At the rear of the development mews houses and horse stables were converted to high quality accommodation units. All existing cobbled streets, feature chimneys, corbels and feature brickwork courses were restored. Bricks used during construction were either site- salvaged or from reclamation yards specialising in materials from this period. Predominantly lime mortar was used to build in keeping with original building practises.
