Norland Square
Holland Park
“As I was giving up, Edingtons kept me focused on continuing the search - their enthusiasm was an inspiration.“
OUR CLIENT
British couple.
OUR CHALLENGE
Having spent close to two years searching on their own and experiencing loosing out on a ‘perfect house’ to another buyer, our clients instructed us to help them with their search. We searched across Little Venice, Maida Vale, Marylebone, St James, Notting Hill and Holland Park looking for a house or apartment with grand proportions, expansive entertaining space and outside space, demised or nearby, for a much-loved dog. With the 3% enhanced SDLT on second homes announced but not yet in effect the race was on to deliver a quick result.
THE RESULT
We acquired a wonderful house on Norland Square, an architecturally special house on a pretty garden square in Holland Park, which was in reasonable condition but ready for updating.
Despite the asking price of £6m we acquired at under £5.3m and by pushing through the purchase on the eve of the SDLT changes our client saved a further £200k. Our clients plan to update the property and will be left with a fine family home on a prime Holland Park square.
