Doswell was originally founded in 2005 as an off-shoot of the hugely successful Drew Smith to undertake one-off speculative projects outside of the main group business function. Doswell now operates as an SME house builder and remains under the same family ownership and guidance that has underpinned its success over the years. As we build homes for the future to which sustainability and biodiversity are a key factor, we seek to maintain our long-standing commitment to high-quality, safety and timely delivery.
