A monthly round-up of property news,

at home and abroad

BY ROSEMARY BROOKE

FRIENDS IN THE

RIGHT PLACES

Many of the country’s finest

properties are never advertised

on the open market, so an

independent buying agent is an

invaluable asset if you’re searching

for your ideal home. With excellent

contacts across prime central

London, Robert Bailey Property can

arrange for its clients to be among

the first through the door, ensuring

that in the fiercely

competitive world of real estate,

you’re ahead of the crowd.

THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS

Set in Essex’s affluent ‘golden triangle’,

Chigwell is a highly desirable spot

for those seeking a rural haven with

easy access to the capital – Liverpool

Street is 31 minutes by train. London

Square Chigwell Village is a gated

community of four- and five-bedroom

houses, close to schools, shops and

transport links. Prices from £1.195

million. For more information, visit

GET WITH THE SMART SET

Few addresses in SW3 are as conveniently situated as 100 Sydney Street –

tucked away off the King’s Road, opposite Chelsea Farmers’ Market, it’s a few steps away from

the green space of St Luke’s Square, with The Ivy Chelsea Garden just around the corner. The

boutique development comprises seven apartments and a penthouse, with off-street parking

and a share of the freehold. From £5.75 million for a two-bedroom apartment.

LUXURY LIVING IN LAGOS

Lagos is one of the fastest-growing cities in Africa,

and demand for property is booming. This autumn sees

the launch of a 29-hectare waterfront development

in the heart of the Nigerian capital. As the first luxury

mixed-use development, Ilubirin will provide a vibrant

array of homes, retail units, performance venues and

restaurants, in a well-connected spot on the

north-west coast of Lagos Island.

Apartments are priced from around £158,200.
