About FolkTale

Why we created this directory

FolkTale is a design-led estate agency specialising in the sale of distinctive homes.

With backgrounds in architecture, design, construction and development, our team understands everything from simple repairs and cosmetic improvements to full renovations and complex redevelopment, a perspective that goes well beyond the conventional agency model.

Along the way, we've learned that one of the most valuable things we can offer clients is an introduction to the right people. This directory is a distillation of that network.

FolkTale Projects

FolkTale also operates FolkTale Projects, a creative placemaking consultancy guiding projects from initial concept through design, delivery and completion.

Working across renovations, extensions, adaptive reuse and ground-up residential developments, we help clients shape projects with a strong emphasis on design quality, materiality and long-term value.

Our role adapts to the scale and requirements of each project. For some clients, this may involve early-stage strategic advice and consultant introductions; for others, we provide a fully integrated creative direction and project management service overseeing the entire process from concept to completion.

Through our trusted network of architects, interior designers, contractors, makers and specialist trades — many of whom feature within this directory — we are able to assemble highly tailored teams suited to the ambition, character and budget of each project.

Because of these long-standing working relationships, projects often benefit from stronger communication, smoother coordination and a more cohesive end result.

Depending on the project, our services can include:

    We are particularly interested in projects that require thoughtful design thinking, careful restoration, adaptive reuse, or a strong sensitivity to character and context.

    Whether undertaking a modest refurbishment or a large-scale redevelopment project, our aim is always the same: to help create homes that feel considered, enduring and deeply personal.
