LEASE DETAILS

This property is being sold with a share of the freehold giving the owner peace of mind over the management and control of the development for the future as it ultimately controlled by the leaseholders of the properties.

Lease length – 125 years from 1 December 2005

Ground rent – £0 (as you are the freeholder)

Service charge – Jan - June 2024 - £1292

Letting – The lease allows for the property to be let on an AST or as a short term serviced let. However, with regard to holiday letting, the freeholder has advised the following: Holiday letting has been widespread at County House for many years and the freeholder has always allowed that position informally, but note that the lease does not specifically permit it, so it cannot be assumed as a legal right and the freeholders position could in theory change. A copy of the freeholder’s holiday letting policy is available on request.

COUNCIL TAX

As the current owner has been using the property as a holiday let, commercial rates are paid at approx. £600 per annum. However, the seller informs us that the tax band as a purely residential property would be D = approx. £2038 per annum. This would need to be verified with the council.
