Location, location, location...

Fancy owning your own bijou 12 seat brass band concert hall box in the heart of London? Just check your loose change for a spare few quid...

Albert Hall
  Box with a view...

Have you ever wondered why seats at the Royal Albert Hall cost such a premium price for listening to the likes of Dionne Warwick or the Proms, enjoying numerous awards evenings or even sitting back for the National Championship of Great Britain?

Eye opener

Even if you have, then the rare sale of a Grand Tier box by the Harrods Estate may still come as a bit of an eye opener...

The purchase of 12 seat Grand Tier Box (close to the Royal Box) in the Grade 1 listed building does come with membership to the Corporation of the Halls of Arts and Science and the responsibility for such duties as electing the Council and the Hall's President.

It is also only the second Grand Tier Box to have been made available through Harrods Estates in almost a decade and is offered for sale leasehold with 848 years left unexpired.

Harry and Meghan

And as Jake Irwin-Brown, Sales Negotiator for Harrods Estates states: "Grand Tier Boxes at The Royal Albert Hall rarely come to market, this is only the second in nearly a decade that Harrods Estates has been instructed on and this particular Box is located only two boxes away from The Royal Box: perhaps Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will be part of the audience at future events, post their wedding next month."

Offers please

It is available exclusively through Harrods Estates with offers invited in excess of… £3,000,000

Yep. £3 million…
