China and Co for sale - for £3m

China and Co

China and Co, the props company based in Shepherd's Bush, are selling up and moving their business to Acton.

If you're looking for a spacious post-industrial building ripe for residential conversion, it could be yours - but you'll have to dig deep in your pockets to find the £3m asking price.

It's a sign how overheated the housing market in Shepherd's Bush has become that such a dizzying asking price is even feasible.

You can see the listing here, described as a "one bedroom commercial property" at RightMove.com.

And, even if your pockets are deep enough, there's Stamp Duty to pay on top of the £3m asking price.  At current rates that is an astonishing £273,750.00 - all of which goes to the Government.
