Demographics of the sector
Although anyone can rent in the Single Family Housing sector, the target demographics skew a little older than some rental properties – these developments aim to attract those 35+ and with families.
The priorities of Single Family Housing developments are different to other rental sectors. For example, BTR developments tend to feature amazing, shared amenity spaces and proximity to public transport is key. For Single Family Housing, some of the most important factors are:
- Easy workplace connectivity
- Proximity to good schools
- Access to green space
According to research into the sector from Knight Frank, the current ‘sweet spot’ in terms of scheme size is around 125 units.

Delivery
This is in part thanks to our nationwide capabilities – with two warehouses (in Manchester and London) with a total space of 120,00sqft we are able to deliver furniture across the country. For markets such as Single Family Housing, which are primarily based across suburban and rural areas, this accessibility is key.
Installation and Removals
LOFT’s expert installation teams can assemble furniture exactly where it’s needed. Meaning there’s minimal disruption to family life.
Another service we can provide is the option to remove old furniture which is being replaced by LOFT furniture. This is perfect for Single Family Homes, where the often-busy households require an easy, fast and efficient furniture replacement.
As well as removing the old furniture, we can remove all the product packaging. Again, this saves the residents any hassle. Plus, LOFT boasts a 98% Landfill Diversion rate, so people can feel at ease knowing that their old furniture is either going to be recycled or donated (potentially to be loved by another UK family).
Furniture designed for Single Family Housing
LOFT has a wide range of furniture available to suit different types of accommodation, including the perfect furniture for Single Family Housing properties.
The types of furniture we find to be ideal for single family housing include:
- Durable furniture – to last for the longer rental periods
- Pet and child-proof – perfect for any type of family
- Suitable for different generations
- Neutral to go with stuff they’ve collected over the years
This furniture has to be perfect for the long-term rather than trend-based. However, that’s not to say it should be purely functional. By investing in aspirational and stylish furniture, these developments can stand out to tenants rather than just a traditional rental property which hasn’t been professionally interior designed.
People First Furniture
Finally, one of the reasons LOFT leads in the property market is due to our People First Interior Design principles.
This means that for every interior design scheme we create, we have put the people who will be living there first. Designing consciously for their lifestyles and dreams.
These properties are designed to offer a long-term, family base for people, it’s important that their furniture feels homely and inviting, which is at the forefront of our designs for these developments.
