Kisiel Ltd

Kisiel Group is proud to have won this prestigious award in recognition of our quality work building new homes in London.

The award was for the construction of seven new homes built on the site of an old MOT centre.  

The judges praised the development as a great example of repurposing a site "to a very high visual standard' enhancing the surroundings".

Our property developer client saw the opportunity to convert an old MOT testing station into a modern Mews Development, on land tucked away behind a row of shops on a main road in South East London.

Originally a one story building with a mezzanine floor, the foresight and vision of our client was to create a block of seven modern apartments.  Demolishing some of the walls at the start of the project, we retained the bricks to use along with matching bricks from a reclamation specialist merging them seamlessly with the existing ones during construction. Restrictive access down a narrow road and round a bend to the site limited the access as there was no turning space so deliveries were managed with precision.

Our team constructed a building in this unique air space development delivering a fabulous conversion from what had been an unused commercial property.

Just off a tree-lined avenue in a quiet cul-de-sac, we have enabled quality and design to come together with the construction of four new houses for our client.

Where many people living in London are stuck for space, these homes have a light and spacious feel throughout the 4 bedroomed properties. The design for each home has made excellent use of space with the notable creation of a basement level where the master bedroom and study room look out on to a small courtyard. This has created both light filled rooms and a private area to sit outside.

Working closely with the Metropolitan Police and meeting their strict standards of the Secured by Design initiative, Kisiel Group gained a Gold Award for these homes. We are keen to build new homes that are designed to significantly reduce the opportunity for crime and anti-social behaviour.

This project was the London 2019 winner for the category 'Large Renovation' at the Master Builder Awards. 

Situated within a conservation area, our developer client was keen to maintain as much of the original features as possible.  The Kisiel team transformed this run down house into a 5 stylish apartments in this award winning major renovation.

The conditions of the planning permission meant that the front facade needed to be restored to its original state and the side and rear extensions were not to visible from the front of the property.  Throughout we had the old style mixing seamlessly with the contemporary and at an outstanding quality of finish.

The challenge on this project was to convert a dated 2-bed apartment working within the constraints of late 1940s building on the 8th floor to create a fabulous entertaining space.

Highlights include creating an open welcoming atmosphere through the installation of a 200Kg glass panel measuring over 2 metres in height and 1.70 metres in width to give an impressive entrance.  We constructed a suspended ceiling in the living area to create lighting effects to beautifully set the mood.  With consent needed for alterations, we had lengthy discussions with the Estate surveyor and negotiated a compromise to enable the footprint of the tiny ensuite bathroom to be extended into the main bedroom.

Our client comment really says it all about the quality of our work “We are loving the space you have created for us and we have had fantastic feedback from all our guests." 

Situated within a conservation area in West London, our client was keen to maintain as much of the original features as possible.  Our skilled craftsmen ensured that this major renovation combined the old style mixing seamlessly with the contemporary and at an outstanding quality of finish.

Through making a good use of space and incorporating a rear extension, side extension and a loft conversion this semi-detached house has been adapted into 5 luxury apartments.
