Leasehold
Lease is 250 years with 239 years remaining.
Ground Rent is £250 per annum, which we understand from the Vendor, does not increase.
Service charge is £1500 per annum and is reviewed annually and adjusted according to related costs.
There is also a communal area service charges to Premier Estates of £1014 per annum.
A separate management company has been set up by leaseholders, which has played a role in reviewing and challenging the charges / budgets set out by Premier Estates to take as much of the unnecessary cost increases away from Premier where possible. There is still ongoing work by many of the residents who formed the management company to try to take Premier Estates out of the picture for the areas they still manage, and that may well happen in the near future.
All mains services connected.
