Complete Collection in view: What to expect from a Signature Collection
Published on
July 11, 2024
The lengthy painstaking process of property search and purchase, through to full renovation and interior design is well worth it to allow our co-owners to enjoy incredible homes that are beautifully designed and completely hassle-free. Our expert teams think of everything to ensure your home feels a part of the community in which it is built and that the antiques, furniture and finishing make it feel like you have lived here forever as soon as you step across the threshold.
The August Philosophy
It takes a lot of property viewing and expertise to identify and purchase an August home. We view around 2,000 homes a year and currently, only 50 have made the cut. The homes must be perfectly located (location, location, location after all!) close to amenities, and entrenched in the local community, but also within proximity and easy access to an international airport to ensure travel to your homes is effortless. We renovate and refurbish the homes to bring them back to their former glory, we will always be sympathetic to the area and destination, sourcing local materials and finishes so your home feels like it belongs, as much as you do in this community.
The attention to detail and heritage doesn't stop with the refurbishments, we interior design the homes and scour local antique markets and furnish your dream home so it will feel lived in and loved from the moment you arrive.
