Description

Description

A charming and historic property located in the picturesque town of Royal Tunbridge Wells. The Major Yorke offers unique, but flexible, accommodation on a medium to long term basis.

Previously a public house, it has been converted into a series of studio rooms with kitchenette’s in all.

The property has had a new electric boiler installed and has CCTV fitted throughout.

Location

The property sits to the west of the town centre opposite the Spa Hotel and next to Tunbridge Wells Common.

The town itself is an affluent Spa town, situated in North West Kent, only 35 miles south east of central London, 25 miles east of Gatwick and 16 miles west of Maidstone. There is a fast and frequent train service to London terminals, with Charing Cross a 50 minute journey.

Internal Details

The main property features eight bed-sits of different sizes and one studio to suit a range of tenants, with ancillary WC’s, a laundry room, shower rooms and a large basement currently used for storage.

There is also a self-contained one bedroom flat laid out over two floors.

All accommodation is currently let on AST’s.

The Opportunity

The current owner is selling to concentrate on other investments.

The property has previously had planning consent granted for three separate dwellings as follows:-

Unit 1 – 4/5 bed 212 sq m / 2181 sq ft
Unit 2 – 2 bed 110 sq m / 1184 sq ft
Unit 3 – 2 bed 109 sq m / 1173 sq ft

All to make use of the basement, and these plans could be revisited and we believe make an attractive proposition for a local developer.

With a large basement currently unused, we also believe there is scope for refurbishment offering a large open plan space available to rent for short term local groups, subject to local planning regulations. It could also be rented out for storage, something which has already been granted by Tunbridge Wells Borough Council.

Trading Information

The property is currently fully let and generates an annual income £78,300, representing a gross yield of 8.7%.

There is also a laundry room with coin operated machines which generate further ancillary income.
