The Brief
An International buyer.
The Challenge
Our client was looking for a pied-a-terre providing a quiet and safe lock-up and leave apartment in central London. As they only spend a limited amount of time in London high on the list of requirements was a building with a porter, located close to shops and restaurants and with little refurbishment required.
What We Did
Black Brick successfully agreed the purchase of a stunning and truly unique mansion flat £150,000 below the asking price. The flat had recently been stripped back to the shell and meticulously refurbished by the vendors. We are now providing further support to the client through our vacant care service specifically designed for overseas clients.
Testimonial
"My wife and I used Black Brick’s buying service to acquire our property in Drayton Gardens in 2014 as a secondary residence. We were very happy with the buying service so when it came to considering engaging someone to look after the property in our absence it made sense for us to consider Black Brick’s vacant care service. We have now used the service for 9 months and are as pleased with this service as we were with the buying service. Since we are based overseas it is important to us to have someone on the ground in London who we are confident will maintain our property in an efficient and professional manner. Black Brick’s service has fully met our requirements. The weekly inspections and prompt addressing of any maintenance issues and pre arrival and post departure services, have meant that on our visits to London, we have been able fully to enjoy the property rather than spend time trying to deal with property related issues ourselves".
The property has ideal lateral space, stretching across two buildings, with six windows across. The street is also wider than average, offering an abundance of light…
