The Renovation Game: Hyde Park, central London
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.What's for sale?
This is a unique investment opportunity for someone with deep pockets. Five of the seven flats constituting this seven-bedroom property are for sale (with the freehold rights), including a four-bedroom penthouse suite. Each has floor-to-ceiling windows and most of the original features are intact, including the sweeping staircase.
How much?
Guide price of £4.4m, freehold.
What's needed?
Though structurally sound, the place needs to be brought up to date. The garden is well kept and the exterior is in great condition, but the lift shaft needs re-installing and more than a lick of paint will be required to restore the interior to its former glory.
Profit potential
In a fantastic location, just minutes from Hyde Park and the array of schools, shops and transport links that central London has to offer, this would provide great rental opportunity. You would need to put around £1.2m into the renovations – a lot of money to invest right now, but this could be worth around £9m if you play your cards right.
