I founded Stone & Linen after a long career working in property development, construction and interior furnishing across the UK and Southern Europe.
For over 15 years, I lived and worked in Portugal on high-end residential and golf resort projects across the Algarve and Spain. This background gave me a strong understanding of how properties are built, marketed and sold — not just how they look.
My Background
After working in property construction and development, I moved into interior furnishing for international buyers.
While working with Jose & Oliver Interiors in Almancil, I created the Pack & Go furniture package concept. This allowed overseas clients to purchase investment properties and have them fully furnished in clear, tiered packages for the holiday rental market.
This made it possible for buyers living in the UK, Ireland and elsewhere to invest remotely, with their properties prepared for rental or resale without the need to manage multiple suppliers.
Alongside this, I also ran a gardening and landscaping business, which gave me a practical understanding of how homes perform both inside and out — from layout and flow to external presentation.
I hold a Portuguese real estate licence and speak English, Portuguese, Spanish and French.
Stone & Linen brings together property knowledge, commercial awareness and interior styling to help homes perform better on the market.
I don’t style properties simply to look attractive — I style them with purpose. Every decision is guided by:
​
• how a property will photograph
• how it will feel to view
• who the target buyer or tenant is
• and what will help it stand out in a competitive market
My interiors are calm, collected and lifestyle-led, moving beyond cold, empty staging to create spaces that feel warm, believable and aspirational — without feeling personal or polarising
