About

Thirzie began her career in property by launching a group of workspaces in East London with a focus on innovative design, before pivoting into the establishment of an industry leading restaurant in Berlin. In 2017 she consolidated her creative and commercial interests by founding London’s first multidisciplinary estate agency.

Immersed in a rich world of artistic inspiration, Thirzie developed an early fascination with architecture and design. Her grandfather’s company Hull Traders revolutionised the design and production of interior textiles in the mid twentieth century. Thirzie is also aesthetically influenced by the artisan tastes of her literary family who, in 1911, were trailblazers in their decision to reimagine a rural estate in West Sussex as an early artists’ retreat, which included the commision of an Arts and Crafts library. The property remains in the family and continues to be an inspiration in all of its understated charm.

From the outset, the agency appealed to London’s creative community. Thirzie’s first clients remain firm advocates of her founder-led approach that ensures all transactions are conducted with a grace and understanding that is unique in the world of property. Through her innovatively empathetic approach, Thirzie has created an ethos in which property representation is treated as more than just a transaction, but a process of exploring how human relationships interact with the built environment and the places we call home.

Elsa studied English Literature at the University of Nottingham before completing a Master’s degree at the London School of Economics. She brings the curiosity and empathy developed through her academic work into her professional practice, applying a thoughtful and people-focused approach to everything she does.

After relocating to Hackney in 2021, Elsa began her career at an independent, female-founded agency, where she supported the Founder and Managing Director. This fast-paced role instilled a strong organisational foundation and a meticulous eye for detail. She later moved into a position as Studio Manager at a dynamic and highly creative studio in Clerkenwell, further refining her strengths in operations and the management of complex workflows.

At the agency, Elsa plays a pivotal role in supporting its founder-led structure, overseeing the day-to-day operations of a high-end lettings portfolio while ensuring a seamless experience for clients. She is also responsible for the management of the Galerie and store, bringing together her organisational expertise and strong visual sensibility to maintain a cohesive and elevated brand presence.

Based in Hackney, Elsa is immersed in East London life, with a genuine understanding of its neighbourhoods and culture. From Dalston to Broadway Market, she maintains a close connection to the area’s social and creative communities, balancing city life with time spent in her home county of Norfolk.

Hannah has joined the Thirzie Hull team to cover the Cotswolds and the wider West of England. Having worked part time for an agency in the area, she is collaborating with us to bring listings from the region to our audience. Trained as an illustrator, she built a career running studios and managing production for high-profile artists, galleries and institutions, among them Damien Hirst and David Bailey, taking complex, exacting projects from concept through to delivery.

Born and raised in Stroud, Hannah moved back following a career in London, fully renovating her own Grade II listed cottage as a home for her and her lurcher, March. The renovation set a practical understanding of historic buildings alongside the instinct for space and proportion that years in the studio have given her.

Hannah knows the area at first hand, its towns and villages, its houses and its strong tradition of art and craft. With a foot in both London and the country, she is well placed to bring the region’s homes to a discerning London and international audience.
