A tiny London ticket kiosk near the Garrick Theatre has gone on sale – for a staggering £3.3million.
The Tourist Island includes a small ticket kiosk near Charing Cross which was once used to sell theatre tickets – with cast-iron stairs that lead to a larger basement area, according to MyLondon.
The above ground portion of the property is 250 square feet.
The former theatre tickets kiosk (pictured in 2018) stands in the shadow of the Garrick Theatre near Charing Cross and Shaftesbury Avenue – the heart of London’s theatre district.
The kiosk is on the market for a hefty £3.3million asking price – which doesn’t even include the VAT on the price tag
The larger basement, however, is a much more roomy 1448 square feet.
The West End kiosk is situated moments from several landmarks.
Traflagar Square and Leicester Square are minutes away from the kiosk with the £3.3million booth a short walk away from Shaftesbury Avenue – the heart of London’s theatre district.
The kiosk looks small from the outside but the Charing Cross structure includes a large basement underneath the surrounding pavement
Social media users in the London Urban Oddities Facebook group were bemused at the hefty price tag on the small structure.
One quipped: ‘What’s the going rate? £3 million per square foot or something?’
Another said they were looking forward to seeing the kiosk appear on an episode of Channel 4 property show Grand Designs.
The memorable structure is a noticable part of the West End and agents will be looking to captialise on this notability to drive interest in a sale.
The kiosk has been boarded up for a number of months as theatres endured a torrid time due to the pandemic restricting their ability to perform.
