About Metropolitan Development Consultancy Ltd

Your Vision, Managed by a Single Lead Professional

We believe property development shouldn't be a fragmented process. Since our founding in 1988, we have evolved a transparent, "one-stop" service that provides you with a single lead professional. Whether you are a developer tackling a 50-unit scheme or a private client creating a luxury home, we umbrella every discipline—from initial feasibility to the final account.

Three Decades of London Expertise

Based in the heart of London’s West End, our multi-disciplinary team brings over 35 years of experience to the table. We don't impose a "house style"; instead, we listen. Our portfolio spans the UK, but our heart is in the capital’s most prestigious postcodes, including Regent’s Park, Marylebone, and Highgate.

Specialists in Listed Buildings & Conservation

Navigating the complexities of Grade II listed properties requires a delicate touch and technical rigour. We have a proven track record with sensitive sites and historic conversions, such as:

  • St Dominic’s Priory, NW5: Conversion of a Grade II listed priory into 21 residential units.
  • Devonshire Place, W1: Luxury refurbishment of a listed house including a new swimming pool.
  • Clarence Terrace, Regent’s Park: High-end refurbishment of a luxury flat within a historic setting.

A Multi-Disciplinary Powerhouse

Our strength lies in our people. Led by Robert Shutler (FRICS) and Jon Evans (RIBA), our team blends the precision of chartered surveying with the creativity of award-winning architecture. This dual perspective ensures that our designs are not only beautiful but financially viable and structurally sound.

"We work with a site-specific approach, tailoring every project to the individual brief to provide the highest quality design within budget and programme constraints."

From Concept to Turn-Key Completion

We handle the heavy lifting so you don't have to. Our internal capabilities allow us to manage the entire lifecycle of a building:

  1. Architecture & Planning: Coordinating specialist reports (Arboricultural, Traffic, Engineering) to secure complex permissions.
  2. Quantity Surveying: Rigorous cost control, tendering, and final account agreement to protect your investment.
  3. Project Management: Programming construction professionals and managing contractors on-site.
  4. Interior Design: Bespoke FF&E solutions for a complete turn-key finish.

Whether we are converting warehouses into modern offices or constructing new-build luxury apartments in Radlett, we remain committed to the same high-quality, independent service that has defined us for over 30 years.
