History & Focus Of The Group The Penhurst Group was founded in 1987 by John Elkington with the aim of investing in quality property located in specifically targeted areas of London. Since then it has become a substantial operation with assets exceeding £60 million.
From the outset our philosophy has been to build a portfolio of mostly residential properties suitable for letting to highly mobile young professional people. The properties identified for acquisition were those with a price and size which would appeal to the specific needs of those people.
Geographically our focus has largely been on areas within a 5 mile radius of Lavender Hill and south of the Thames. These areas, which include Wimbledon, Clapham, Battersea, Wandsworth and (to the north of the river) Fulham, are well known to John Elkington and his fellow directors, whose first-hand experience of the typical properties to be found in them, have given us a strong competitive advantage in respect of acquisition and management. In addition, we have avoided large, speculative or fashionable purchases.
The combination of these factors has enabled us to secure consistent and sustained income and capital growth since 1987.
