— 01 / Philosophy

We don't build houses.
We compose homes.

Novira Living acquires, restores and develops residential property across London, from sensitive Victorian conservation work to contemporary new-build. Every project is led by a single belief: that a home should feel as considered in its joinery as in its silhouette.

We transform overlooked properties into exceptional homes, carefully designed to honour their character while enhancing the way people live today.

— 02 / SERVICES

A full service, held in one hand.

From the first viewing of a derelict shell to the moment the keys are handed over, every stage is delivered, project-managed and quality-controlled by Novira. No outsourced studios. No hand-offs. One name on every detail.

01

Acquisition

Identifying off-market and undervalued residential opportunities across prime and emerging London postcodes.

02

Development

Ground-up residential development, from single villas to small luxury collections, led by our in-house delivery team.

03

Renovation

Sympathetic restoration of period homes, listed terraces, mansion flats, mews and townhouses to modern standards.

04

Extensions

Rear, side and full envelope extensions and interior design that feel inevitable, not added. Crittall, glazing and structural specialists.

05

Conversion

Loft, basement and change-of-use conversions that unlock square footage without compromising the building's voice.

06

Investment

Partner with Novira to invest in carefully curated residential projects, from acquisition through to completion, with transparency at every stage.

MATERIAL STUDIES

— 04 / Approach

One studio.
Four movements.

Each Novira project moves through the same four stages held together by a single project director and a small, recurring team. The result is consistency from first sketch to final fixture.

  1. I

    Source

    Off-market acquisition, due diligence, feasibility.

  2. II

    Design

    In-house architectural studio, planning, interiors.

  3. III

    Build

    Directly employed craftspeople, single point of accountability.

  4. IV

    Deliver

    Snagging, handover, aftercare and ongoing custodianship.

— Words from our clients

"Novira treated our house as if they intended to live in it themselves. Twelve months on, every detail still feels exactly right."
