Walton Street
Knightsbridge
“We were consistently impressed with Edingtons expertise and deep understanding of the market. Dan provided us with invaluable, sound advice helping us navigate what can be a very complex process with confidence.
Edingtons extensive network and connections were also an enormous help. Giving us access to opportunities and resources we wouldn't have found otherwise. Their reputation is well-deserved. Thanks to Dan’s guidance, we were able to achieve an outcome that exceeded our expectations and we will definitely be using them again.“
OUR CLIENT
A family from Cape Town.
OUR CHALLENGE
To find a pied-a-terre in a vibrant area suitabe for occasional holiday lets.
THE RESULT
Our search spanned Notting Hill, Holland Park, Kensington, Chelsea and Knightsbridge. We sent updates on each area of focus, agreed a shortlist and scheduled tours of each area viewing the shortlisted properties. We identified a handful of properties for second viewings and negotiated the acquisition of a fine Grade II Listed property on Walton Street.
We did not agree with the £2.65m asking price nor were we persuaded by the selling agents assurance the vendor would not accept much below asking price. We acquired the flat at £2.2m thereby achieving a £450k discount from the asking price.
Our client will be embarking on a sentitive restoration of the property with an architect we recommended. We are looking forward to seeing the transformation.
