BUSINESS
Westbrook House - Planning permission is sought for HMO, full residential status. This will allow you the freedom of choice. You could simply occupy the two bedroom flat whilst receiving a gross income of £43,000 from upstairs. Alternatively rent out the entire building and place it under professional management as it currently is. Gross income including the flat would be in the region of £60000/annum. The property
offers long-term flexibility for an owner, with planning for residential conversion creating the opportunity for a high end HMO/House Share, self-contained flats, or a mixed-use scheme. Full planning permission
should be received in the next few weeks.
