A freehold interest for the entire Grade II listed Georgian premises of 3 and 4 Almeida Street c.1837 (subject to a short lease 58 years, 4 first floor flat).
A rare opportunity to acquire a pair of attached freehold semi-detached properties. Number 3, the family home was bought in 1975, with the residence extended into the ground floor at number 4, following the purchase of the freehold of 4 Almeida Street 1988. Included in the sale are the lower ground flat at 4a, and the upper maisonette at 4c, and freehold of 4 Almeida Street. The first floor flat is owned separately on a leasehold with 58 years to run.
The current extension allows for a flexible living space, with double fronted reception rooms, which currently lead into a ground floor bedroom on the (nos. 4) side but could be used as a study or playroom.
Number 4, the lower ground floor flat and second and third floor maisonette are both let on assured shorthold tenancies (AST). The first floor flat was sold on a separate 99-year lease back in 1983.
The main entrance to number 3 is set to the side and leads into a wide 2m wide entrance hall. To the rear of the entrance hall is a most useful utility room and boot/cloaks room. The inner hallway leads into the glorious front reception room with two large sash windows and a delightful array of period features. To the rear is a fitted kitchen which opens to a rear walkway and gardens. The front reception was opened into the neighbouring reception room some years ago and we understand has permissions to retain. The second reception is of the same proportions and similar features. To the rear is currently a bedroom/ former dining room, which leads to a rear bathroom, workshop, utility, and store cupboards. This also provides further access to the rear garden and into the entrance hall of the attached property.
