Three years ago we sold a 2 bed basement flat in South Ken for £425K, a slightly smaller version of ours was sold at the same time for £355K - this was sold in May 2007 for £640K (an increase of £275K in roughly 3 and a half years).

Absolute madness - of course you can only afford to live in Central London if you are a merchant banker now.

Bought our Hackney terrace for £110k in 1998. Sold it this year for £600k. Within 3 months of us selling it, similar houses on our road have been selling for 660k and 670k. My mum bought her 3 bed flat in Camden in 1990 for £100k. Sold it in 2001 for £400k. Just saw it sold again this year for 720k. Can it continue like this? Its bloody madness.

is that the garden ?

for £17m ?

feck.


'Tis a gorgeous house though, in an excellent area.

I wonder what it would be worth once done up ?

Mind you, it'd cost a few bob to do up. You could hardly fit it out with DIY-barn stuff, could you ?!
