Doswell was established in 2005 as an offshoot of the highly successful Drew Smith, with a clear remit to deliver carefully selected, one-off speculative developments beyond the scope of the main group’s core operations.
Today, Doswell operates as a specialist SME housebuilder, combining industry expertise with a strong focus on quality. The business remains under the same family ownership, providing continuity, experience and a consistent commitment to excellence.
