It is always pleasing to have our services recommended to land owner, and particulars gratifying to subsequently receive instructions to manage the sale of a property that has been in the same family for over 50 years.

Mounts Court occupies an elevated plot on Mounts Road in Greenhithe. Originally one of several local Manor houses, views from the top floor stretch from the Queen Elilzabeth Bridge to Bluewater- two landmarks that certainly didn't exist when our clients family first moved in! Over the years much of the garden has been sold for development, and recently the building has been let as bedsits.

Now in need of major refurbishment, the ongoing maintenance and management of the tenancies has been preventing our client from enjoying her retirement.

Whilst our client was keen for a prompt, unconditional sale at the highest price possible, she also confirmed she would show preference to a buyer that intended to preserve the character of Mounts Court.

Although the building is not listed, nor in a Conservation Area, Erinvale Estate Ltd conceived a scheme involving the retention, conversion and extension of Mounts Court to provide a development of luxury apartments. In addition to the building, the remainder of the original gardens will also be restored to their former glory.

Despite the fact keen interest was shown by several other firms, Erinvale's offer was accepted and contracts promptly exchanged.
