Beach hut prices now higher than London properties – London Removal responds
 Property removal experts London Removal has responded to a claim that beach hut prices have risen by such a margin in the last few years that they’ve outperformed some of London’s prime property.

 

The Nation’s Capital has experienced a massive growth in property prices over the course of the last year, rising as much as 25% in properties located in affluent boroughs of London. However, in comparison, there have been reports of beach hut prices soaring by as much as 53% within the last 12 months alone.

 

With many individuals and families making the move to sell their smaller London properties and purchase more spacious homes in rural areas with money to spare, there is a growing demand for exclusive beach huts, with one unit being snapped up for as much as £225,000.

 

The 13ft x 13ft, £225,000 hut has no electricity or a bathroom, providing its new owner with a simple layout and minimalist features and amenities. The key point of interest is the location, situated near Christchurch, on Mudeford Spit, classed as the epicentre of ‘Beach hut Mayfair’.

 

London based removal specialists ‘London Removal’ responds to relevant news, surveys and research within the property industry on a regular basis. A company spokesperson believes the huge increase in value of seaside and summer properties, including huts is a reflection of both improved conservation of the UK’s coastline and the surge in popularity for coastal property of any description:

 

“Although not as spacious as rural properties that are available for the same price, the demand for beach hut properties is off the scale from both UK and overseas bidders. We believe that the high price for one particular beach hut doesn’t reflect figures overall but with many selling at over £120,000 for single room, basic beach huts, there is every possibility that more will sell for these exaggerated sums of money.”
