CHEYNE WALK | SW3
Having sold the basement property in this building, we were duly instructed to sell the ground floor apartment. Due to the length of lease, the property took some time to sell and we worked closely with another agent. In the end we achieved a record price per square foot for the client of a £1 million for the short lease.
LOCAL AREA
Cheyne Walk is a historic road in Chelsea, London, situated in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. It runs parallel with the River Thames. Before the construction of Chelsea Embankment reduced the width of the Thames here, it fronted the river along its whole length.
Cheyne Walk itself enjoys a rich and diverse history which is reflected in many of the grand buildings which dominate this part of Chelsea. It takes its name from William Cheyne, Viscount Newhaven who owned the manor of Chelsea until 1712. Most of the houses were built in the early 18th century. Before the construction in the 19th century of the busy Chelsea Embankment, which now runs in front of it, the houses fronted the River Thames. The most prominent building is Carlyle Mansions. Chelsea Old Church dates from 1157 and Crosby Hall is a reconstructed medieval merchant's house relocated from the City of London in 1910.
