Talking about our latest 6-bed HMO project Marstanningley.
Mardesign is proud to unveil the latest addition to our design portfolio our 6-bed HMO Marstanningley.
Located in Leeds, this unique project involved the conversion of a 3-bed terraced house into a high-end 6-bed HMO with 6 bathrooms/ensuites. Our goal was to create a functional yet comfortable space for professional tenants, with a high-end finish and design.
To make the most of this property, we optimised the internal space planning, creating spacious and functional rooms. One of the most exciting aspects of this project was the unique attic space that allowed us to create 2 new ensuite bedrooms.
On the ground floor, we created a communal space with a kitchen and dining area that accommodates all tenants at the same time. Each tenant has their own allocated storage area, and there is also additional shared storage. As the clients wanted to separate the clothing washing area, we relocated this to the basement creating a dedicated utility room; this alows the tenants to have a noise-free space perfect for them to socialize with each other or their guests.
In the first floor we designed 2 ensuite bedrooms and one bedroom with an off-suite. Each room has plenty of storage, a dedicated work area; On the loft conversion added 2 more ensuite bedrooms which included the same features of the first floor bedrooms. The bedroom 06 if the biggest room in this property and it has it’s own lounge area.
To enable this design we provided the builder with all required tehnical drawings.
For example, to ensure that all the power sockets and switches were positioned correctly and according to the furniture layout, we created a drawing that indicatid each fixture position, type and specification so that the electrician knew which and where to add each fixture.
For the lighting layout, we designed each lighting layout indication all light points and their circuits, this not only emphasizes each room unique features, but provides the right ambient and fuctional lighting, providing comfort to the tenant.
This approach not only future-proofs this property, but also takes into consideration how tenants live in HMO developments, making their lifestyle simpler and ensuring longer tenancies with minimal void periods.
Our clients' primary goal was to create a comfortable and functional home for their tenants, while also delivering a high-end finish to attract the top end of the market for the highest rents.
Despite the inevitable challenges that arise during any refurbishment project, we were able to overcome them through our problem-solving skills and quick decision-making process.
For instance, when the builder set out the wrong partition walls in bedroom 1, we worked closely with the client to re-design the internal floor plan layout and make adjustments to ensure the original concept still came to life.
Our ability to work efficiently and collaboratively with the client was key in pushing the project forward and keeping it on track.
We are particularly grateful that our clients valued our expertise and trusted us to make design recommendations that ultimately led to the exceptional end result. This level of trust and collaboration allowed us to create a truly functional and beautiful living space for the tenants.
The experience of working with Mardesign was described as amazing by our clients!

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Raquel from Mardesign and I cannot recommend her highly enough! As an interior designer, Raquel has an incredible eye for detail and was able to transform my 7 bed HMO into a beautiful, stylish and functional space that exceeded all of my expectations.
From the initial consultation through to the final design, Raquel was professional, knowledgeable and truly passionate about her work. She took the time to understand my needs and preferences, and worked closely with me to create a space that was not only beautiful but also practical and functional.
Raquel's attention to detail and creative flair were evident in every aspect of the design, from the colour schemes to the furniture selection and even the smallest decorative touches. She was also mindful of my budget and offered cost-effective solutions without compromising on quality or style.
The end result was a space that was not only stunning but also comfortable and inviting, and my tenants have been absolutely delighted with the transformation. I have no doubt that Raquel's expertise and creativity have added significant value to my property, and I would not hesitate to work with her again in the future.
