Lesley was born and raised in the remote regions of Malawi and Kenya. She received her education at St. Andrews Private School in Yorkshire, England, where she served as Head Girl. Her parents were involved in the civil engineering business in Kenya, and her father was a non-commercial professional hunter for the Game Parks. School holidays were always special, filled with the contrast of bitter Yorkshire winters and the warmth of the African bush.
Lesley has built a remarkable career in property work and sales, spanning 42 years and covering all aspects of the business. She eventually established her own company in Johannesburg, with her initial success in Financial Business Management paving the way for her ongoing achievements in the property industry.
The family decided to relocate after a handshake agreement to "Let’s go back" to the "Last Outpost" and embrace the Natal lifestyle. This move was made for the sake of freedom, happiness, and access to top-tier schooling.
Lesley is married to Kit (69), and they have a son, Keaton (27). The family shares a love for the great outdoors and sports, creating many cherished memories together. Kit spent 20 years in the corporate world of the South African Poultry Industry before owning Karabuni Fine Art Gallery and two other businesses. Keaton attended Clifton Nottingham Road and later Hilton College on a Major Sports Scholarship. He graduated from Hartpury University in England in 2020.
With the constraints of COVID-19, Keaton chose to pursue farming, working in England, America, and Australia. His dream of traveling the world continues, balancing five months of work with seven months of international adventure travel and the mantra “African Boy travelling the world”.
Lesley is deeply committed to her real estate family business, her husband and son, travel, sports, her spiritual and community support, and gardening. She takes pride in her property work, boasting hundreds of testimonials from satisfied clients. Her mantra, "42 years of open, honest, and professional property dealings," guides her daily, reminding her always to remain humble and kind.
