Our Approach

From proportion and natural light to the weight of a door handle, our approach is always the same: the utmost care and attention to the finer points.

These are details most people never consciously notice, yet they decide whether a home feels right, and what it is worth.

Project Modillion was founded by a prime property specialist with more than 25 years’ experience of what buyers look for, and what creates value. That knowledge underpins every decision, and protects every penny invested.

We keep the number of projects we take on small, so every client has our full time and attention, and every project is given the care it deserves.

The person behind every project

Alexander Woodleigh-Smith has spent more than 25 years in prime London property. He works with homeowners refurbishing homes they love, investors and private clients developing new acquisitions, and owners preparing to sell, where the right works can add far more to the price than they cost.

A sharp eye for detail and an uncompromising demand for a perfect finish run through every project, along with a clear sense of what people notice in a home. He oversees each one personally, from the first visit to the final detail.

Refurbishment and development, down to the last detail.
