At £2068 psf this seems quite expensive and though the garden is quite a bonus, paying £8000 per year (£666 per month) is quite a lot as a service charge I must say.
Charming. I could see myself using the shed as an art studio. I am currently learning to paint watercolours.
Ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3 million quid for a flat near an underground train line!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No bloody thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Choooooo Chooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The decor is very bland but I suppose that is easily fixed.
Looks great but be aware the adjoining house is Pelham Cottage/Park Lodge (you featured http://thesteepletimes.com/flicking-cottage/) and when and if they start digging a sub-basement, it will be hell to sit in that garden.
Rod!! imagine what you could buy in Australia for £3.25 million :0
Even though it does look quite nice, I agree with Rod, yes I know, but it is crazy. That amount of money, and also a body corp fee of 8 grand a year, forget it.
