Cedar Rise develops homes that people love to live in.
We work with the current street scene to interpret local architecture and trends which are then reflected inside and outside our developments.
An established Interior Designer, Founder Hilary ensures the design aesthetic of our developments is at the forefront of what we do, through considered space planning and seamlessly designed interiors.
OUR STORY
“We broke ground in March 2020 having invested everything and more into what was now just a giant hole in the ground.
As lockdown stretched indefinitely ahead of us we couldn’t have picked a worse time for our build.”
The ambitious project tested their capacity and resilience daily. The two year process saw the couple hone their creative thinking and problem solving.
Despite seemingly endless setbacks they are delighted with the results. The build has given them an immense sense of pride and achievement.
In fact, Hilary & Clive collaborated so successfully in self building their ambitious family home that they were inspired to form Cedar Rise. Transitioning into property development from senior roles in alternative but related sectors, they bring abundant appropriate skills, experience, capability and drive.
OUR TEAM
We have proven track records in running successful businesses and brands over many years which translate comfortably into property development.
HILARY TAYLOR SPANSWICK
Hilary enjoyed a successful career in fragrance and beauty over two decades and held regional and national roles in both sales management and in marketing, ultimately as marketing director, for well known American apparel designer.
Experienced and comfortable in both corporate and design settings the construction industry presented a very different environment to master and a completely new code of attire!
CLIVE SPANSWICK
Clive is an accomplished tech industry and business executive. For the last 10 years he has led the European arm for a global software business, acquiring many blue chip companies as customers and growing revenues 38% year on year.
His strong business and financial management skills led him into property management & development in 2000. He has since worked on many projects and brings a rich and diverse set of property experience into Cedar Rise.
PROFESSIONALS
We celebrate experience and work with the best professionals across each discipline. Architects are the authors of any successful development. Similarly, we revere excellence in Building Contractors, Project Managers, Engineers, Planning and Cost Consultants, all of whom are vital to any scheme.
DEVELOPMENT
Design has been integral to Hilary, throughout her life and career. As a qualified Interior Designer her obsession with the aesthetics of the house and home began well before her self-build project was even ‘out of the ground’.
Trends, styles and materials are extensively researched in order to, where possible, future proof developments at Cedar Rise. During her own self -build she engaged in competitive procurement to add value, utilising and expanding her network of industry professionals and artisans. Particular attention was paid to space planning, home integration, smart appliances, and AI.
