Anita Buys Interior Designed, Ready To Go Show Home Apartment
CFO, Anita Szarek, came to the UK for one day from Columbia and tasked herself to find a new, luxurious apartment to use as her base whilst she travelled around Europe for work. She was delighted when she was shown the exclusive gated development of Osborne House in Sunningdale, Berkshire, built by award-winning house builder Kebbell.
Why were you looking to move?
“I am Polish but was recently living in Columbia but because of my job I needed to move back to Europe. I chose the UK to be my base, but I regularly travel across Europe. Whilst living in Colombia I came to the UK for one day to see prospective houses. Knight Frank took me to see Osborne House and I immediately liked the development and the apartments.
"I am a single person who doesn’t have the time to decorate and furnish an apartment and I loved what the interior designers had done in the show apartment, so I decided to buy that one with all of the fittings and furniture as well. We negotiated a deal, I placed an offer and it was all very convenient. Apart from that one day at looking at apartments, I could do all the rest from abroad online or on the phone. It was all super-efficient.
"Because I travel a lot I didn’t need the apartment immediately, so I then rented the apartment back to Kebbell to continue to use as a show apartment for six months. When I moved in, the sales team were there, and they were very helpful in accepting my parcels and belongings when I was away and helping me set up the house and utilities. Kebbell’s customer service access, responsiveness and support have been very good.”
What were you looking for in your new home?
“I needed to move because of my job but I really wanted a lovely garden, privacy, to enjoy a green landscape and peace and quiet in the country. I like the feeling of country life living. I need to easily commute to London two to three times a week and I enjoy the lovely shops and restaurants and the outside lifestyle. I also have friends in the area but the most important thing for me was that the apartment was furnished and fully decorated and interior designed so it was easy, ready to go and without hassle to move in. I also really loved the bathroom design!”
