Crouch End to Hadley Wood
Start: Studio Flat Converted to One-Bedroom
Finish: Six-Bedroom Detached Home
Time Taken: 12 Years
Backdrop: In 2002, a client purchased a studio flat in Crouch End for £96,000. Recognizing the opportunity to increase its value, the layout was reconfigured into a one-bedroom apartment, making it more appealing to buyers.
After a swift renovation and with the benefit of a rising market, the property was sold in 2004 for £160,000, generating capital to invest in a larger property priced at £334,000.
Over the next decade, the value of this second property soared to £800,000. This appreciation allowed the client to take the next step in their property journey, leveraging the gains to purchase a six-bedroom detached home in Hadley Wood for £1.8 million.
This 12-year journey highlights the power of strategic property investment and timing. Our expertise and market insights provide clients with the ability to unlock opportunities and achieve their dream homes.
