Tennis fans looking to beat the queues are being offered the chance to snap up a property overlooking the All England Lawn Tennis Club.
A stunning two-bedroom apartment in Wimbledon, south west London, has gone on the market for £800,000 – and it offers panoramic views over both the No 1 Court and Centre Court, which are less than a mile away from the front door.
The owner of the third floor home in SW19 could make up to £7,000 if the property was rented out over the tennis championships, according to experts.

‘This two bedroom third floor apartment benefits from outstanding and far-reaching views of the All England Lawn Tennis Club and the London skyline from the balcony.
‘We certainly see an increase in interest for short lets around Wimbledon.
‘Demand for short term accommodation is so strong that most of our clients achieve a substantial increase on their standard rental price over the Wimbledon fortnight.’

The unassuming apartment block could be a big hit among tennis fans because it provides views over the Wimbledon championships
Charles Packer, assistant sales manager at Jackson-Stops’ Wimbledon branch, added: ‘For those not wanting to be cooped-up inside, especially on a sunny day, residents can watch the tennis on the big screen at Henman Hill from their balcony.
‘You can even hear the crowds’ reaction in real-time.
‘Only 50 per cent of the apartments in this block have views of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club – the other half have views up towards Wimbledon Village, Hill and Common, offering a different aspect.
‘The location is also particularly appealing to downsizers who tend to look for a peaceful environment with communal gardens, secure parking, concierge services and a close proximity to the cafes, restaurants and boutiques found in the village.’
