The Houses Within The House

MAJIK HOUSE

Award winning smart home design and installation home cinema, lighting, audio, control and security, designed in from the first sketch so the technology disappears into the home.

Our Story

When tech disappears, Majik happens.

One of the longest established smart home specialists in the country.

Founded in 1998 by Tim and Carol Burrow, Majik House has spent more than twenty-five years making technology feel like part of the house rather than an addition to it. From its base at Gatebeck, near Kendal, the team designs cinema rooms, intelligent lighting, audio, security and whole home control systems for prestigious projects across the North West, Lancashire, Cheshire, Manchester, Cumbria and the Lake District.

Every system is designed in from the first sketch, working hand in hand with architects, interior designers and builders so that screens, speakers and switches serve the room quietly or vanish from it altogether. CEDIA certification sets the standard for every engineer on every install.

Still family run and still guided by the people who founded it, Majik House brought its craft to House of Carvetii in 2025 the element of intelligence in a house built on four.

In Summary

Technology, considered with the architecture.

  • The Skills

  • The Relationships

    A family firm across two generations, trusted by architects and interior designers who bring Majik House to the table at sketch stage and by clients who are looked after long past completion. At Gatebeck, three sister houses complete the picture.

  • The Strengths

    More than twenty-five years at the forefront of smart living. Nationally awarded work three wins for a single home measured against the best in the world at CEDIA level. And a founding conviction that hasn't changed: the best technology is the kind you stop noticing.
