Planning

There is an opportunity to reconfigure the upper floors to form 2 x 1-bedroom flats and 4 x 2-bedroom flats. Generally, all of the newly configured flats would have open living/kitchen space and shower rooms.

Flat 8 was refurbished recently to demonstrate how the space can be used to unlock better layouts, the result allowed the rent to rise to market otherwise the rest.

The recent refurbishment also included re-roofing over the residential part and new windows to the whole of the residential part of the rear elevation and four refurbished (overhauled frames, new sashes/ double glazing) to the front elevation. The common parts serving flats 5-8 have also been recently been redecorated.
