Principle Estate Management has been appointed to manage Ovington Court, a distinguished 38-unit mixed-use Art Deco building on Brompton Road in Knightsbridge.
The purpose-built mansion block, designed by Murrell and Pigott in 1930, is located between South Kensington and Knightsbridge tube stations, with world-class amenities, restaurants, shops and transport facilities on the doorstep.
The portered block is at the top of Ovington Gardens by Brompton Road, with the green open spaces of Hyde Park and the museums of South Kensington located less than half a mile away, and minutes away from Harrods.
The building comprises commercial premises across the basement, ground floor and parts of the first and second floors, with residential flats spanning from part of the basement and ground floor through to the eighth floor.
Brett Williams, managing director at Principle Estate Management, said: “With this instruction we’re building real momentum in this part of London which is home to some of the UK’s best prime real estate and heritage buildings. We recently won the management contracts for Empire House and Dalmeny House in Kensington and we see significant growth in high-end, resident-led mansion buildings such as Ovington Court.”
Principle was recommended to the head lessor for Ovington Court at Wall Properties Limited following their proven track record in managing prestigious London properties.
A spokesperson for Wall Properties Ltd said: “We needed expert, professional support at Ovington Court and Principle fits the bill with a proven track record and a growing reputation in London.
“We are now in the process of carrying out their 100-day action plan as part of the Principle Promise, which includes a review of Building Safety Act requirements and a Long Term Maintenance Plan. We’re looking forward to seeing improvements in the building.”
The management of Ovington Court demonstrates Principle’s continued expansion in London’s most sought-after locations, where their expertise in heritage and mixed-use buildings is increasingly in demand.
