We couldn’t be prouder of where we are now. 

We always knew when we started this journey, we wanted to build something that reflected us as a couple and our company philosophy. Design led, however not compromised in practical daily usage. Bespoke quality that we at team Chiselwood pride ourselves with. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. We knew this would not be to everyone's taste, however we think our new homes are beautiful inside and out. We are thankful that even people who did not like the concept have come to view and appreciate what we have created.
