bringing new life to disused spaces

About Us

We’re Burrows Developments - a small, design-led team based in Surrey, driven to transform underutilised and overlooked sites into beautiful, functional spaces.

We are not a volume developer. We care deeply about protecting local culture, history and nature, and bringing individuality to the Surrey property market. Our work spans residential, commercial and mixed-use redevelopment. We’re particularly drawn to agricultural, heritage and brownfield sites, where thoughtful development can make a genuine difference to the people and communities around them. 

We work in close partnership with Woods Home Design, a family-run planning, design, and build firm with over 25 years of experience across Surrey and the surrounding areas.

Acquisitions

We're looking for redevelopment opportunities in Surrey and the surrounding areas, with a particular focus on the following site types. If you have a property that could be suitable for redevelopment, please contact us on 07517811184.
