Case Studies: Real Projects, Real Results

Every project we take on is about more than just bricks and mortar. It’s about unlocking potential, creating value, and delivering lasting quality homes that enhance communities. Below are a few examples of how we’ve transformed underutilised properties into thriving residential spaces.

Meet the Team – The People Behind Kingsleigh Developments

George Bailey | Director

George Bailey

I’m a family man with three daughters, sharing all the joys and challenges that come with raising them.


I’ve worked in construction for over 30 years, starting straight out of college after studying landscape and construction. My career began in the family business, working on large landscaping projects before moving into home extensions and new builds.


Building my business from the ground up, I’ve honed the ability to spot master tradespeople, creating a strong, reliable team and a trusted network. My approach is built on respect, people and quality, this allowed me to grow my business solely through recommendations. When I find an exceptional agent or tradesperson, they quickly become part of my extended team.


I founded Kingsleigh Developments to rejuvenate and enhance lost spaces. Too often, young people are forced to move further away from family to get on the property ladder—I know this all too well with three daughters of my own.

The solution isn’t just large-scale developments. We must maximise the spaces we have, restore forgotten buildings, and create smart, high-quality homes within existing communities. Housing shortages are real, and while large developments are necessary, we can reduce demand by repurposing underutilised spaces in a way that benefits the road and community.
