Sinead Campbell of London Flats Insurance looks at some amazing apartments that are currently for sale in London.
London is never short of outstanding properties for sale; running into millions of pounds and offering the most luxurious of accommodation with incredible views. Sometimes overlooked are the luxury apartments up for grabs. Often in central London locations and tucked away in beautiful buildings, these apartments are the epitome of city-living for those with a wallet that can stretch far enough.
We headed to Sotheby’s for a run-down of the elegant apartments listed for sale this June:
