Recent Activity in Holland Park W14

Our client chose to instruct a Level 3 Building Survey for this maisonette that forms the upper floors of a converted middle of terrace house built in about 1900, with the inspection undertaken by our senior surveyor Shaun Blake.

The maisonette shared a separating floor with the flat below so, bearing in mind that it was an older style conversion, one of the significant factors raised was the potential problems that can arise with the construction of the separating floor providing inadequate fire separation and sound insulation. In modern conversions, a sound test would be undertaken but that was not the case when these works were undertaken.

Other key issues addressed by the survey related to the conversion of the roof space to provide the second floor, where problems were identified with the means of escape provision, the condition of the flat roof (by means of GoPro camera and camara pole) and inadequate levels of insulation. Each of these factors presented significant costs to address.

About Holland Park

Holland Park is a picturesque neighbourhood located in West London. Nestled between the renowned areas of Fulham and Shepherd’s Bush, it boasts a prime location that combines the tranquillity of a residential area with the convenience of nearby urban hubs.

The neighbourhood is well-served by several tube stations, including Holland Park Station and Shepherd’s Bush Station, which provide direct connections to central London and other parts of the city.

Holland Park itself is a true gem, a green oasis that lends its name to the neighbourhood. It is a stunning park filled with lush gardens, winding paths, and beautiful open spaces. Visitors can revel in the natural beauty, take leisurely strolls, or simply relax amidst the serene surroundings. The park also features a charming orangery, a peaceful Japanese garden, and the renowned Kyoto Garden, a tranquil space inspired by traditional Japanese landscaping.

Moreover, Holland Park W14 is in close proximity to a wealth of cultural attractions. The Design Museum, located nearby in Kensington, showcases innovative design and contemporary art. The Leighton House Museum, just a stone’s throw away, provides a glimpse into the life and work of acclaimed artist Frederic, Lord Leighton.

I had a really positive experience with Shaun Blake at Peter Barry. The survey was very thorough and Shaun was on hand to answer several follow-up questions I hand. I would recommend them to anyone.
Requested a level 2 survey with Peter Barry and was very happy with the service, the survey goes above and beyond what I have experienced before and gave a very thorough breakdown of the risks and what next steps both I and the solicitor should take. I highly recommend going with them!
