I expect there will be more than a few people working from home the last 2 years, in a corner of the living room, who would quite like that office.
Agreed, the gardens are lovely.1 -
I can only imagine the previous owner was a cabinet maker (hobbyist or by trade) or something?
Some of that is nice but my god, there's just so much of it.1 -
Not to my taste. Think the white curly radiator is awful. The red panel in the lounge and the white panel in the bedroom - are they radiators? And the funny red cross in the shower room? The space seems to be so badly used - like the 'kitchen'. Does it have a sliding worktop?

I think the red and white panels are Infra red heating panels, but I may be wrong. They use much less electricity by warming the person, not the room.
The designer curvy radiators are usually placed in a corner, so it looks a bit odd sited there.
Love the sliding worktop in the kitchen. Makes use of the kitchen sink area.
There is a lot of tech in that house!What I do not give, you must never take by force.

Where to even start with this beauty?!

Firstly, the decor(and then an oddly relatively normal looking kitchen?!)
But you can't live in it until the current occupier dies! Which, if they are, say, 70 or under, could be another 30 years. In the meantime I presume you are the one who has to pay the £17k and £5k fees. So £22k a year for a basement apartment you can't live in.
Oh and the lease only has 29 years left on it. But don't worry you can extend it for just £800k.
(I wonder if, since it's in Knightsbridge, it'll be bought by an overseas investment company who won't care about any of the above?)
