'Covent Garden is a vibrant place to live, with an array of high quality shops and restaurants a short stroll away. The current owners are from Asia, a nationality which is becoming increasingly interested in property in WC2 for both investment and a place to live, due to its proximity to cultural delights such as the Opera House and to be close to the river.
'We have also received a surge of enquiries from Middle Easterners looking to move into the area. The property also comes with a separate parking space by negotiation, further adding to its appeal.'
