Description Mid terrace period former warehouse arranged over lower ground, ground and three upper floors. The property comprises the midsection of a small island site, bounded by Dufferin Street to the south, Cahill Street to the west and Dufferin Avenue to the north and east. Access to the building is via the main entrance on Dufferin Street and secondary entrance from Dufferin Avenue at the rear.

The floor to ceiling heights are excellent with natural light front and back. Floor plates are regular and centrally heated. All floors are accessed by a lift and specification comprises perimeter trunking and plaster painted walls and ceilings.

Tenancy The entire property is let to the National Deaf Children’s Society (NDCS) at a rent of £108,000 per annum on a lease expiring 14th March 2014. The lease is outside the 1954 Act. The tenant may require their lease to be extended to 31st March 2014. www.ndcs.org.uk

Planning The site is located in the London Borough of Islington, within The St Lukes Conservation Area, the Clerkenwell Action Area Plan and the London Central Activities Zone.

GPAD Architects (www.gpadltd.com ref: Sam Caldwell) recently achieved two planing permissions:

Option 1: Mansard extension at roof level to add an additional 1,076.4 sq ft of B1 office space. (Ref: 2013/3493/FUL)

Option 2: Redevelopment of the property behind a retained facade, creating a total of 8,976sq ft NIA, an additional 2,714 sq ft, comprising an extension of an existing office building at roof level with a mansard roof and internal rearrangement of the office staircase and lift core and adjustment of the floor levels to provide additional office accommodation. (Ref: P2013/1900/FUL)

Potential for Residential Use Our client has explored the potential for residential use and we believe there is a possibility of achieving a mansard extension at roof level to add an additional circa 92.9 sq m (1,000 sq ft), subject to receiving the necessary planning consents.

Our clients believe that the November 2013 consent achieved above could have included four residential units, subject to agreeing an affordable housing contribution. Illustrations, details and plans are available on the website.
