Mount Anvil

What Mount Anvil does

Mount Anvil is a London-based residential property developer founded in 1991, operating exclusively in the UK capital across boroughs including Southwark, Hammersmith and Fulham, Islington, Chelsea, and Clapham. The company's product portfolio comprises named residential developments such as Chelsea Finery, The Broadley, The Edit, Queens Cross, and One Clapham, with completed and planned schemes spanning affordable rent, shared ownership, and market sale tenures. Under founder and CEO Killian Hurley, the firm employs 251-500 people and maintains headquarters in London.

The company delivers turnkey housing developments from planning through completion, incorporating low-carbon building technologies including solar panels and air source heat pumps, and applies an adaptive design management approach that absorbs mid-stage regulatory changes without delaying project programmes. Mount Anvil operates a dual go-to-market: (1) direct property sales to individual homebuyers through its website, on-site sales teams, and a "Find Your Home" portal, supplemented by email and content marketing, and (2) enterprise development partnerships with London borough councils (Southwark, Hammersmith and Fulham, Islington) and housing associations (Peabody, Newlon Housing Trust), often co-funded by the Greater London Authority. Notable institutional partnerships include a 264-home Chelsea Botanica scheme delivered with Peabody and Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, a 786-home Southwark Council contract signed in March 2026 (minimum 60% affordable housing), and a decade-long 1,116-home New Barnsbury Estate joint venture with Newlon Housing Trust signed in December 2025.

Revenue is generated through one-time residential property sales (market-rate and affordable units sold to individual buyers or housing associations) and contract-based professional services for public sector development partnerships. Individual property pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies by development, location, and tenure type. The company markets through its website, email newsletter, news/blog content, and earned media coverage in housing industry publications. Ownership structure, revenue figures, and any external funding are not disclosed in available sources, representing a data gap for investors.
