Description

The property comprises a Victorian terraced house which was converted pre 1970s to form three self-contained flats. Further reconfiguration took place in the 1980s to create the four flats that form the existing layout.

The flats were all originally let on Assured Shorthold Tenancies - we understand that the tenants are holding over under agreements that have expired and have periodic tenancies. There is good scope to improve the current rental income significantly.

The property has generally been maintained to a good standard. The internal finishes, specification of the kitchens and bathroom / shower rooms are of a reasonable quality. The outlook from the rear of the property is particularly pleasant, overlooking gardens and Coolhurst Tennis & Squash Club.

In terms of development potential, the property could be retained in its existing arrangement or converted and refurbished to form a number of self-contained flats or reinstated to form a single family dwelling house subject to obtaining the necessary consents.
