Clarendon Group

What Clarendon Group does

Clarendon Group Limited is a privately-held, design-led property developer and landlord based in London, operating from its headquarters at The Chapel, Wellington Road, London NW10 (a converted Victorian chapel that also forms part of its own commercial portfolio). Founded in 1987, the firm specialises in the adaptive reuse of heritage and industrial buildings — including Victorian chapels, fire stations, and furniture factories — alongside brownfield site development and new-build residential schemes, with a portfolio of roughly 15 properties concentrated in prime West London (Notting Hill, Holland Park, Kensal Green, Battersea, North Kensington) and Buckinghamshire (High Wycombe).

The company's operations span three revenue streams: one-time residential property sales (Notting Hill, Argyll Place, The Penthouse, Alma Road, McGregor Road, Princess Louise Walk, Wellington House), recurring commercial office lettings (The Chapel, Beechwood Hall, Regent Street studios, Maple Court, Ivory Place, Discovery House), and managed residential rentals in West London. Sales and leasing are conducted on a direct-to-consumer basis via the company website and inbound email enquiries ([email protected], [email protected]), with no intermediaries, channels, or online transaction capability. Pricing for both residential units and commercial floorspace is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.

The business is run by a small team of 1-10 employees with no public management team disclosed in the source data, no outside funding, no subsidiaries, no patents, no public-facing APIs or digital products, and no certifications or compliance disclosures. Marketing is limited to a static company website portfolio and direct email enquiries; no social media profiles were identified. The firm self-describes as "award-winning" with multiple industry recognitions cited for individual commercial schemes (Maple Court, Discovery House) though specific awarding bodies and years are not specified.
