Sunday 22 May 2022 12:07 AM Barrister Kathryn Blair's one-bed mews house in central London sells for £1.9M trends now

A one-bedroom mews house made a £700,000 profit for Tony Blair’s family after it was sold this year, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.

The central London property is thought to have been bought by Sir Tony’s wife Cherie for their daughter Kathryn in 2014 for £1.2 million. It was recently snapped up for £1.9 million, an increase of 58 per cent in eight years.

Prices in the area have climbed by an average of 43 per cent in that period, but the Blairs carried out renovations, planning documents reveal. A basement extension and enclosed courtyard were added by the family.

The house is one of nearly 40 properties owned by the former Labour Prime Minister, his wife and their four adult children.
