Wilson’s Conservation Homes is the vision of Geoff Wilson and John McKinley. Their shared ambition is to create the highest standard of traditional rural homes, by combining expertly-sourced architectural salvage and an unrivalled level of building craftsmanship. The team is completed by chartered architect Des Ewing and estate agent Robert Wilson [meet the team]

Geoff and John are passionate about, preservation and conservation. Their partnership is driven by the desire to create homes inspired by centuries of tradition - rural buildings which merge with the rolling landscape, as if they had always been there. New country homes, yet with the spirit and heritage of listed buildings and traditional rural dwellings.

Both men are based in the countryside of County Down, and their love of the area is evident in how they have sensitively and carefully selected the sites. The time-honoured and almost forgotten appreciation of their surroundings has been vital to the success
of Wilson’s Conservation Homes.

The homes, and outbuildings, have a simple beauty all their own - built with a deceptive ease which takes many years of dedicated workmanship to perfect. John has hand-picked a team of skilled craftsmen, and worked closely with them at every stage of the project to create rural homes which are both vernacular and spectacular.

Vision, skill and craftsmanship - the old-fashioned way.
