All flats are held on leases of 125 years commencing from 25th March 1992, with a ground rent of £100 per annum. Ground rents are currently receivable only from Flats 9 and 10, which are separately owned leasehold interests.

The leases contain a provision requiring leaseholders to first offer their flat to the freeholder prior to any sale. Under the terms of the leases, the freeholder has 28 days from receipt of written notice to purchase the property at a price agreed between the parties, or otherwise determined by a single RICS-appointed valuer acting as expert. Accordingly, should the leaseholders of Flats 9 and 10 decide to sell their interests, the freeholder would benefit from the opportunity to acquire the remaining leasehold interests within the development, creating the potential for complete ownership control of the block.

The development is currently managed by Encore Estate Management Ltd. The estimated service charge for the period 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027 is approximately £1,635 per apartment per annum. The service charge includes: -Buildings insurance -Water charges -General maintenance -CCTV system maintenance -Sinking fund contributions Subject to compliance with the landlord obligations contained within the leases whilst Flats 9 and 10 remain under separate ownership, a purchaser may elect to implement alternative management arrangements. Should Flats 9 and 10 be acquired in the future, there would no longer be a requirement to formally collect service charges, although block management obligations would still remain.

Our client has advised that the development has a healthy sinking fund of approximately £21,000 in place for future maintenance works.

The property occupies a highly sought-after city centre position within an area experiencing substantial residential redevelopment, including numerous high-rise schemes nearby. The site may offer future redevelopment potential, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.
