July 2009 The Penthouse Flat at Queen Mary’s Place is a real penthouse with an all day huge sunny terrace as its crowning glory – I have visited many times and as of November 2009 it is now rented out! It has two bedrooms and two bathrooms ; a huge kitchen living area with black granite surfaces and a white and turquoise modern theme leading onto the terrace.  Both bedrooms have access to this terrace.  The apartment has all around sound, wooden flooring, and luxury appliances. There is a dedicated underground parking space with direct access to the top floor so security is guaranteed.  The views from the terrace encompass Richmond Park and beyond – it is a wonderful entertaining space!  The site offers a gym and private commuter transport to East Putney as well as a base for Street Cars so that transport can be rented by the hour. The profit that is generated from the rental of these 2 apartments will all be distributed to the Charities that Give it Away continues to support. August 2007 "Since all the houses are now sold, details below, I am concentrating on the Charities to whom I have given the money.  I am closely involved in the projects they are running and am in regular contact with them.  It is very rewarding to actaully meet the children who are taking delivery of their new motorised wheelchairs, to see the young Polka Theatre group taking shape, to know that the Fairbridge youngsters are out there taking part in projetcs and learning how to trade and make money.  Being a Patron of "Yes 2 Life" will be a new experience for me and I intend to work closely with them and others in their marketing and future planning. The last 2 years has been an enormous learing curve for me and I have been priviledged to have been given access to so much information and have received such kindness from the Charities I am involved with. I hope after my year end in September to take a break and then think how to earn that £300,000 to make my Give Away a total of £1million! The project was more successful that I could ever have imagined and some needy and disadvantaged lives have already been changed as a result." Charlotte Grobien Managing Director   The Final Result! February 2007 : 11 and 12 Akehurst street from the outside are both sold! The 29ft kitchen dining room opens onto a wooden deck which leads to the garden - 92ft and west facing it is mature and secluded Posted March 2007

	Demolition Day! These are some of the pictures we took - it was an exciting process to watch! The site was soon cleared and excavated ready for the basement installation. As both houses were a timber frame constuction, progress was rapid. 20th August 2005 This property in Akehurst Street, a lovely, quiet cul-de-sac in the Putney Heath/Roehampton area, was demolished at the beginning of July and was Give it Away’s first project. we created two new luxury, four bedroom, three bathroom houses with a full basement including, a utility room, cloakroom and play/study/recreation area with natural light. The kitchen is a delightful open plan design with full lenght sliding folding glass doors leading out onto a deck overlooking the garden. The garden is a delight – it is a mature, woodland garden more associated with country, than town living. There are numerous flowering trees, shrubs, climbers and roses providing a safe and private haven. There is also off street parking for one car. On the first floor there are two bedrooms with bathrooms en suite and the second floor has a further two bedrooms and one bathroom. It is an ideal family home or a spacious house for young professionals looking for extra rooms for guests and entertaining. We installed all the latest extras which are part of today’s luxury living standards, with elegant bathrooms, state of the art kitchens, underfloor heating, all around sound, modern security systems, outdoor lighting and so on!   To see the full photo gallery, CLICK HERE.
