Tenure
Tenure / There are a number of leasehold interests relating to the whole block on this island
site. The freehold interest in the whole building is vested in The Trustees of the Will
of the Most Noble the Second Duke of Westminster, deceased.
/ 2-3 West Halkin Street is subject to a lease dated 3rd February 1983 granted for a
term of 71.25 years (less three days) from 29th September 1974 (thus expiring on
22nd December 2045) at an initial annual ground rent of £1,000, subject to review
to an amount equal to 10% of the open market rental value of 2-3 West Halkin Street
on 24th June in each of the years 2014, 2028 and 2042. The current ground rent is
£18,570 per annum and was last reviewed in 2000. This lease is vested in Lovat
Estates Ltd and title is registered at the Land Registry under title no. NGL447414.
/ Under the terms of The Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development
Act 1993 (“the 1993 Act”) it may be possible to pursue a collective enfranchisement
to acquire the freehold and superior leasehold interests, but potential purchasers
should seek their own professional and legal advice in relation to this before making
any offer for the subject property.
/ In addition to collective rights to acquire the freehold and intermediate leasehold
interests in the building, the 1993 Act also grants to the tenant of a leasehold flat,
held under a lease, which the tenant has owned for a period of at least two years,
the right to acquire a new extended lease. The extended lease is for a term of
90 years added to the existing term at a peppercorn rent.

Planning
Planning / The property has been in residential use but is currently part vacant. Vacant
possession of the whole building will be provided prior to completion of the
proposed sale. A kitchen and maids’ accommodation at lower ground floor level
would have served the building as a whole and the residential layout dates from a
time when it was common to have ‘galley’ kitchens and rely on restaurants and/or
the ‘house’ kitchen for the provision of food.
/ The building falls within the jurisdiction of the City of Westminster Council and
is Grade II Listed. It is also situated within the Belgravia Conservation Area. While
the property has retained its original floor to ceiling heights and its staircase,
partitions appear to have been formed on each floor level to achieve the current
accommodation layout, but without further detailed historical research and the
advice of a heritage expert, it cannot be determined when these were installed.
However, it would appear that the current layout is of ‘some age’ and quite possibly
pre-dates the listing of the building (1970).
/ There is potential to re-configure and amalgamate units within the property to create
larger, better quality dwellings, subject to the necessary consents. A detailed planning
appraisal has been prepared and is available via the dedicated project data room,
which is listed below under ‘Further Information’.

Tenure
Tenure / There are a number of leasehold interests relating to the whole block on this island
site. The freehold interest in the whole building is vested in The Trustees of the Will
of the Most Noble the Second Duke of Westminster, deceased.
/ 2-3 West Halkin Street is subject to a lease dated 3rd February 1983 granted for a
term of 71.25 years (less three days) from 29th September 1974 (thus expiring on
22nd December 2045) at an initial annual ground rent of £1,000, subject to review
to an amount equal to 10% of the open market rental value of 2-3 West Halkin Street
on 24th June in each of the years 2014, 2028 and 2042. The current ground rent is
£18,570 per annum and was last reviewed in 2000. This lease is vested in Lovat
Estates Ltd and title is registered at the Land Registry under title no. NGL447414.
/ Under the terms of The Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development
Act 1993 (“the 1993 Act”) it may be possible to pursue a collective enfranchisement
to acquire the freehold and superior leasehold interests, but potential purchasers
should seek their own professional and legal advice in relation to this before making
any offer for the subject property.
/ In addition to collective rights to acquire the freehold and intermediate leasehold
interests in the building, the 1993 Act also grants to the tenant of a leasehold flat,
held under a lease, which the tenant has owned for a period of at least two years,
the right to acquire a new extended lease. The extended lease is for a term of
90 years added to the existing term at a peppercorn rent.

Planning
Planning / The property has been in residential use but is currently part vacant. Vacant
possession of the whole building will be provided prior to completion of the
proposed sale. A kitchen and maids’ accommodation at lower ground floor level
would have served the building as a whole and the residential layout dates from a
time when it was common to have ‘galley’ kitchens and rely on restaurants and/or
the ‘house’ kitchen for the provision of food.
/ The building falls within the jurisdiction of the City of Westminster Council and
is Grade II Listed. It is also situated within the Belgravia Conservation Area. While
the property has retained its original floor to ceiling heights and its staircase,
partitions appear to have been formed on each floor level to achieve the current
accommodation layout, but without further detailed historical research and the
advice of a heritage expert, it cannot be determined when these were installed.
However, it would appear that the current layout is of ‘some age’ and quite possibly
pre-dates the listing of the building (1970).
/ There is potential to re-configure and amalgamate units within the property to create
larger, better quality dwellings, subject to the necessary consents. A detailed planning
appraisal has been prepared and is available via the dedicated project data room,
which is listed below under ‘Further Information’.
