INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY | 6 BAMBOROUGH GARDENS, SHEPHERD’S BUSH, LONDON W12 8QN 3 DESCRIPTION CGI for illustrative purposes only The property is a mid-terraced, period townhouse comprising eight studios. It has an overall GIA (including communal areas) of 2,219 sq ft (206 sq m) and is arranged over four storeys. Six of the studios comprise a kitchen unit and the remaining two have access to a shared kitchen. The studios have access to two shared bathrooms, which are situated on the ground and first floors. The building itself benefits from grand ceiling heights and a rear garden. Two of the studios have been refurbished to a good standard; the rest of the building is in reasonable internal order, although now there is an opportunity to add value through refurbishment. The property will be sold with the benefit of vacant possession. MARKET OVERVIEW The investment market for sui-generis HMO, hostel and serviced apartment blocks has rapidly evolved over the past two years. Such buildings have the potential to optimize rent ‘per square foot,’ enabling an enhanced yield to be achieved above mainstream residential assets. INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY | 6 BAMBOROUGH GARDENS, SHEPHERD’S BUSH, LONDON W12 8QN 4 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL The property received full planning consent (ref: 2016/03107/FUL) in October 2016 to extend the rear at lower ground level and construct a rear roof extension, providing a overall GIA (including communal areas) of 2,808 sq ft (261 sq m). The proposed works would increase the number of studios to nine and allow for two units to be converted into en-suite studios. Furthermore, it is proposed that the shared kitchen is redeveloped into a larger kitchen, living and dinning area. Subject to the necessary planning consents, there is scope to increase the number of studios, self-contain the rooms and improve the specification throughout.

  • Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale-Expanded
    PNCR Network for SMA March 7th Expanded Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale for SMA (HFMSE) 2009 Add-on module presented by PNCR - Expanded Hammersmith Functional Smartnet Motor Scale (HFMSE) &PNCR Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale for SMA (HFMS) With add-on module presented by PNCR - Expanded Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale (HFMSE) Introduction to this collaboration In the UK physiotherapists involved in Smartnet (neuromuscular network aimed at improving the management of individuals with SMA) have been working on establishing a written manual for the Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale (HFMS) which has been shown to successfully assess the ability of non-ambulant individuals with SMA. At the same time, yet independently, in the U.S. the Pediatric Neuromuscular Clinical Research Group (PNCR) has been aiming to achieve the same thing for their Expanded version of the Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale (HFMSE) which combines the original HMFS with an add-on module, consisting of items adapted from the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM). The 13 add-on items were selected based on their ability to distinguish motor skills among individuals with SMA II and III and has been shown to do this successfully. This manual provides proforma’s and a detailed manual on operating procedures for both the HFMS and the HFMSE. This is in an effort to reduce fragmentation and promote harmonisation across the international community. Notes on Testing Procedure 1. Intended Population The HFMS is intended to be used with the non-ambulant SMA population and this manual clarifies the procedures. 2. Motor Scale Evaluators HFMS assessments should be performed by individuals who have experience in the handling of children and adults with SMA, such as physical or occupational therapists.
