Urban Cape Interiors Nets 400% Return on Investment at Height of Recession!!!

Oct. 14, 2009 - PRLog -- Urban Cape, the international interior design consultancy based in London, recently undertook the redesign and renovation project of a five bedroom villa located in the South of France netting 400% return on investment at the height of recession.

The property was designed by a local architect and built in the 1980s. The exterior took on a nautical inspiration in attempt to align it with its coastal surroundings, but had become run down and dated.

Urban Cape was commissioned to give the property a new lease of life. The new interior features an open plan kitchen and living area with sunken dining. Internal walls were demolished to open up the space allowing natural light to wash throughout and maximising views of the garden overlooking the exclusive Cap Ferrat. Extensive landscaping to the grounds was undertaken, extending the garden by 20 square meters to include a suspended deck and the addition of a Japanese garden.

The house has just sold netting a 400% profit to the owners and was achieved through the design consultancy’s flexible approach to budget and time frame.

“Urban Cape has made tremendous improvements to the property for us. I believe the transformation was a key factor in being able to achieve a maximum return on the sale of our property.” C. Baxter.

Note to editors: Urban Cape was established in 2003, and has recently relocated to a studio in Parsons Green. Under the directorship of Charlotte Candillier, and award winning lead interior designer Sarah Radhanuath, the firm’s other projects have included completely renovating riverside apartments and city period houses to furnishing homes in Geneva and Australia.  The company also designs and manufactures a collection of handcrafted bespoke furniture, serving both the commercial and residential sectors.
