MICHAEL SEGGIE / DIRECTOR

Michael, from Carlisle, joined the Royal Navy after completing his education, embarking on a promising career. However, Michael had to transition back to Carlisle, where he sought new opportunities. Michael’s professional journey began in the motor trade, where he gained valuable experience working with renowned brands like Citroen and Audi. His passion for business and commitment to transparency led him to establish his first venture in 2017. This entrepreneurial spirit has been a driving force in his career.

In 2023, Michael took a significant step by purchasing into Lakes Estates, a decision rooted in his belief that transparency is essential for successful business practices. He is dedicated to fostering a culture of openness and trust within the organisation, ensuring that clients receive the highest level of service and integrity.

Michael is a devoted family man, happily married with four children who keep him on his toes. Balancing the demands of family life with his professional aspirations, he finds joy in their activities and cherishes the time they spend together. In his spare time, he is an avid supporter of Carlisle United, holding a season ticket and attending every home game.
