DESCRIPTION

Blythe House comprises a 2-storey residential building consisting of 43 self-contained flats (38 x studio and 5 x 1 bed units) extending to approximately 14,033ft2 in total.

The property benefits from 16 surface level car parking spaces (with potential to create further parking) and landscaped communal gardens. The total site area is approximately 1.1 acres.

Blythe House was constructed in the 1970’s and a full programme of refurbishment works took place in 2012. All of the flats are maintained to a high standard.

There is a vacant communal area at ground floor which benefits from planning permission to convert to 4 flats. LOCATION

The nearest station is Bracknell which is located approximately 1.7 miles from the property, providing National rail services to Reading and Central London.

PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL

The existing property benefits from C3 (residential) Use Class, being arranged as 43 self- contained apartments.

Planning permission was granted on 8th May 2015 (reference: 15/00023/FUL) for the conversion of the existing communal space at ground floor to create 4 apartments (3 x studio and 1 x 1 bed units) totalling 1,455ft2 plus cycle storage.

An additional studio flat could be created by converting the proposed cycle store area to provide 5 units, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

A planning application has been submitted (reference: 17/01097/FUL) proposing part demolition of the existing building, involving the loss of 3 existing flats and the communal area, and the erection of a 2-storey extension (with accommodation in the roofspace) creating 14 apartments (12 x studio & 2 x 2 bed units) totalling 6,852ft2 with associated parking. Should the application be granted, this development would result in 11 additional units, creating 54 in total. TENANCIES

All 43 flats are let with each subject to an Assured Shorthold Tenancy agreement. All flats are subject to 12-month agreements and incorporate 6-month break clauses.

The flats are let on an unfurnished basis and the total current rent reserved from all 43 flats is £356,700 per annum, inclusive of water and electricity bills. Council Tax is paid by the tenants.

The net rental income (excluding utilities, insurance, property maintenance and management fees) is forecasted at circa £276,000 for the 12 months from March 2017 - March 2018. www.kingsbury-consultants.co.uk Blythe House, Great Hollands Square, Bracknell, Berkshire RG12 8QH
