Description
The proposed scheme provides 3 x studio, 2 x 1 bed and 3 x 2 bed units with a NSA of 5,328 sq ft (495 sqm).
The proposed accommodation provides a separate bin store and cycle parking within the building. The S106 Unilateral Undertaking requires the developer to pay a SANG contribution of £45,080.38, SAMM contribution of £5,289.15 and Monitoring Fee of £895.
Although Regent House is Grade II Listed, the interior was comprehensively stripped out approximately 25 - 30 years ago. As a result, the only remaining listed feature internally is the original roof trusses. This makes a significant difference when it comes to adapting or converting the space, offering far greater flexibility than typically found in listed buildings.
Unconditional offers are sought for the freehold interest subject to vacant possession.
