Original 1937 Du Cane Court Sales Brochure

Porters Estate Agents have scanned a very rare copy of the original 1937 Du Cane Court Sales brochure which is linked below. Whilst there are many myths and rumours about Du Cane Court, including the private restaurant and rooms to let on the top floor, this original sales brochure will put a few of those rumours rest. Although I was also surprised to read about the annual fee for the club, I was more surprised by the inclusion of rail and underground fares in the sales brochure and that some flats have gas! Something, that was not a possibility in the flat I owned at DCC.

Read all about the dust & post chutes, the Du Cane Court club on the 7th floor with the restaurant & bar,  and Japanese Gardens, as well as an insight into the cost of living in one of these amazing apartments.

Click to view a .PDF copy of the sales brochure and enjoy reading, I certainly did. Thanks to Porter Estate Agents for making this document available to all. (Also please note they have great experience in selling and renting flats within the block.)
