For the first time in ten years, a box at the Albert Hall has come onto the market. Seats and boxes in this venue are highly sought-after, and almost impossible to purchase, making this box - which is for sale on a lease of 863 years ? a rare opportunity for any lover of arts, science and sporting events. The box is in the Grand Tier (where there are only 14 in total), and seats ten. It is in close proximity to the Queen?s box, and commands fantastic views of both the auditorium and the stage. Demand is bound to be high for this unusual offering, as the Albert Hall holds a special place in history: it was conceived by Prince Albert as a permanent venue to ?facilitate the enlightenment of the public in terms of both the arts and sciences.? Tim Ridges of Harrods Estates, who are marketing the box, said: ?Harrods Estates has been asked to market the Grand Tier Box thanks to our experience with previous sales of a similar nature. Earlier this year we were asked to market five seats in a similar box, for which the response from prospective buyers was astounding. Therefore we expect much more interest for this complete box.? The box has a guide price of £925,000 and anyone interested in more information can contact Harrods Estates on +44 (0)207 225 6506 or visit www.harrodsestates.com.
