Queenstown Mews, SW8: A strategic sale in challenging circumstances

The sale of Queenstown Mews, SW8 demonstrates our ability to deliver strong results in complex situations. The property was sold following a probate, with limited documentation and scant historical knowledge available from the vendor, requiring a highly proactive and hands-on approach throughout the transaction.

Initially marketed as a residential opportunity, the property attracted interest and several agreed sales. However, site-specific constraints, combined with the lack of supporting information, ultimately caused a number of residential transactions to fall away during due diligence.

Recognising that a residential sale would not deliver certainty or best value, we strategically repositioned the property for commercial sale, unlocking a stronger outcome for our client. The eventual transaction was complex, involving a conditional exchange and multiple technical surveys, all of which required careful coordination and persistence.

By adapting strategy and driving the process at every stage, we successfully completed a commercial sale that reflected the true value of the freehold, delivering clarity and certainty where others could not in the lovely neighbourhood of Battersea, close to Battersea Power Station.
Well done to Cameron Power on this sale!
