Tenure - We are advised that the property is LEASEHOLD.
The vendor/s have informed us these details/charges are applicable:
Approximate Length of lease remaining is 179 years (199 years from the 1st January 2005)
Ground rent TBC
Ground rent review date and price increase TBC
Service charge TBC
The above charges/lease details have not been verified and confirmation will be forthcoming from the vendor's solicitors during pre-contract enquiries.

Agents Note - The solicitors have advised the following-

'The ground rent starts for the first year as a peppercorn rent and then increases for the next 49 years at £100.00 p.a. This increases by £100.00 for the next 2 50th years and then once more for the final 49 years. This will take it over the threshold above which the lease itself could be considered as an Assured Shorthold Tenancy under the definition contained in the Housing Act 1988. If a lease is classed as an AST under the Act this means that the landlord has the right to forfeit the lease and recover possession of the property by an Order of the Court under the Act, if the rent is unpaid for 21 days. The Court normally has the power to grant relief from forfeiture but in these circumstances the Court has no discretion and must grant the Order for possession. The ground rent provisions may affect marketability as they may not be acceptable to some mortgage lenders.'
