This acquisition was more than a transaction, it was the beginning of a continued relationship built on trust, discretion, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. Over the years, we have remained a constant presence in our client’s property journey, offering guidance and support beyond the purchase itself.

Most recently, our client chose to engage our Vacant Home Management service, ensuring her Belgravia residence remains secure, immaculate, and fully operational during her travels abroad. From proactive maintenance to reactive works, our team oversees every detail with precision and care, preserving the integrity and elegance of her home.

At Quintessentially Estates, we believe that our role extends far beyond the initial acquisition. We are not simply present during transactions, we are there in the quiet moments too, safeguarding what matters most.

Our client, an international family relocating to London, sought:
A classic family home with substantial internal width

Privacy, security, and long-term investment potential

Client Testimonial
"The team at Quintessentially Estates allowed me to enjoy my home without worrying about the details. They liaised perfectly with my housekeeper and sorted things before I even noticed they were a problem." – Q Member, Chelsea

A high-net-worth client was relocating to a new main residence in Notting Hill and required full-service property management, including move coordination, contractor oversight, and ongoing operational support. Quintessentially Estates was engaged to ensure a seamless transition and provide long-term, preventative home management tailored to the client’s lifestyle and portfolio.

Quintessentially Estates provided hands-on move coordination, set up and managed all property services, and assigned a dedicated Property Manager for ongoing personalised care. This included utility and contractor management, cleaning, and preventative maintenance with weekly inspections.

The client experienced a seamless transition into their new home with complete peace of mind. All systems were proactively managed from day one, ensuring the property remained in optimal condition and day-to-day life was effortlessly maintained.

Our client, a London-based individual relocating to the UAE, sought a discreet yet luxurious home that offered privacy, convenience, and world-class amenities — all within a vibrant international hub.

Leveraging our global network and off-market access, we presented a carefully curated shortlist of prime options, both on and off-market, across Dubai’s most prestigious addresses. Every property matched their lifestyle, investment goals, and desire for an ultra-refined living experience.

After exploring a range of exceptional options, we were delighted to secure their perfect new home at the iconic One Za’abeel — a landmark destination known for its striking design, legendary hospitality, and world-class amenities.

Our client was looking for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment around Clerkenwell, Kings Cross, Angel, Old Street and Highbury. Prioritising a high-floor, lateral layout with a lift. While outside space wasn’t a requirement, they wanted a second bedroom for when their parents visited.

By leveraging our market expertise and strong negotiation skills, we secured the property at £950K, well below the £1.1M asking price and her £1.5M budget. This allowed them to reallocate funds for upgrades rather than overpaying. While they initially had a broad search area, we helped our client realise that being closer to Angel was crucial for family convenience. We strategically narrowed the search to ensure the right location fit.

A perfectly located home, secured £550K under budget, with a bespoke interior tailored to our clients needs, offering both personal enjoyment and long-term investment value.
