    A prime opportunity in a prestigious

    address116 - 118 Chancery Lane is an attractive Grade II listed office property with significant reversionary potential and further

    benefiting from an implemented residential consent.

    * * *

    Freehold

    Located in the heart of Central London, Chancery Lane is a premier address within the Midtown market

    The property comprises 12,954 sq ft NIA of office and retail accommodation arranged over lower ground, ground and

    four upper floors

    The property is multi-let to eight tenants and produces an annual rental income of £326,585 reflecting a highly

    reversionary overall rent of £25.21 per sq ft

    The Vendor will provide a 12-month rental top up on the two vacant floors at current asking rents of £35.00 per sq ft. The total annual rent for the building will therefore be £399,840

    Vacant possession of the office accommodation achievable in March 2021

    The property offers significant asset management opportunities including office refurbishment or change of use

    A residential planning permission has been implemented, to provide 14 private residential flats totalling 11,845 sq ft NSA

    We are instructed to seek offers for the freehold interest in excess of £12,250,000, subject to contract and exclusive of VAT

    A purchase at this level reflects a low capital value of £946 per sq ft and a net initial yield of 3.06% on a topped-up basis and

    assuming purchaser’s costs of 6.80%

    An iconic and historic London location

    From the heritage and architecture of the immediate local area to the bright lights, culture and entertainment of the nearby West End, all of the elements that make London an iconic global city are within easy reach. It is just a short

    walk to Lincoln’s Inn Fields – the largest public square in London – whilst Covent Garden is around half a mile west, home to the renowned Royal Opera

    House and an eclectic offering of shops, theatres, restaurants and bars.

    London's most famous legal establishments, such as the Royal Courts of Justice, on your doorstop. As are outstanding education facilities including

    King’s College London and London School of Economics. The business hub of the City is easily reached from nearby Temple tube, with Holborn

    and Chancery Lane stations are also just a short walk away. The imminent arrival of Crossrail at Farringdon will provide links to Stratford, Canary Wharf,

    Paddington and Heathrow.

    Heritage character with modern comforts

    116-118 Chancery Lane is a Grade II Listed building constructed in the early 19th century as two townhouses, comprising lower ground, ground and four upper floors. Subsequent redevelopment maintained the attractive façade and period features, which will form part of any

    refurbishment programme.

    The existing building provides retail on part ground and lower ground floors and office accommodation on the upper floors, with a substantial external rear courtyard. The ground

    floor entrance from Chancery Lane provides access to a central core serving all floors. The floors are split between

    front and rear sections, and are laid out as two self-contained offices suites per floor, separated by a communal area,

    with with WCs serving each floor. There is comfort cooling and gas central heating throughout the building, and a lift

    serving all floors.
