28 | LUXlife Magazine n 2003, Belvedere Custom Homes was established by Founder and Director Keith Da Costa, a former lawyer who discovered his love for property projects and was inspired to make a career change. He soon noticed an increasing demand for high-quality and cost-effective self-build property development services and set out to create a company that would cater to the market’s unfulfilled needs. Today, Keith leads Belvedere alongside Director Cris Da Costa, a construction industry professional who began training as a builder at the age of 17, and Director Nick Da Costa, who studied Construction Management at the University of Western England before gaining experience at national companies like Clancy Docwra. With fine-tuned project leadership skills and an unparalleled eye for detail, Cris helps oversee all aspects of Belvedere’s operations, ensuring that customers receive the best value propositions during their build projects. Moreover, with a wealth of managerial experience, Nick takes a leadership role when it comes to the project management side of the business.
