When purchased this property had been unofficially split into two units: a three bedroom duplex and a studio flat. We secured planning permission and listed building consent to reconfigure the space as one large duplex penthouse, reinstating the original Victorian facade to the front and adding a full width terrace to the rear.

We also undertook a particularly involved process to purchase the fourth and fifth floor communal hallways, enlarging the flat by around 150 sq ft and creating a far more impressive entrance hall and living space.

On the lower floor we created three bedrooms and three marble-clad bathrooms, with a principal suite of some 400 sq ft in size.

To the upper floor we created one vast open-plan kitchen and living area with a bar and two sets of French doors leading out onto the terrace.

The flat was sold with a share in the freehold and a long lease.
