Some homes are so intrinsically beautiful and beguiling that the question, 'What made you want to buy it?' seems redundant. It would probably be more appropriate to ask, "Why wouldn't anyone want to snap up a gorgeous property like this?" - budget and location permitting, of course.

It was one of those rare finds,' says Jo leGleud, co-founder with Scott Maddux of Maddux Creative, who were brought in to help tackle the refurbishment. 'It met all their requirements for a pied-à-terre. It had original features and a bit of history, but they could make it their own.
