Grade II Georgian terrace building offers a fantastic opportunity to refurbish internally for a range of uses, subject to planning.
1 Unity Street comprises a Grade II Georgian terraced building set out over ground, three upper floors and basement. The configuration of the buildings provides for a front building, known as Block A facing Unity Street with a second interconnected building known as Block B accessed via an internal lightwell.
Fantastic opportunity to refurbish internally for a range of uses, subject to planning. The buildings have most recently been used as a part office and part clinic on the upper floors and are currently home to a Nightclub in the basement.
A unique aspect of the building is the presence of a Banksy mural*, visible from Park Street. The mural known as Well Hung Lover is one of Banksy's most famous works and gives the building a unique character.

Tenure
The accommodation is to be made available with vacant possession of the ground and upper floors. The basement is let to Forest Bars Ltd on a lease expiring 21/12/2032 at a current rental of £9,800 per annum. The rent is subject to 3 yearly upward only rent reviews, with the next being due in December 2021, which has not yet been actioned. Our clients will consider disposal of the premises on a long leasehold basis and offers are invited on the basis of a 125 year interest.
Our client’s intention is to generate both a capital receipt and a future income either by way of a ground rent or through retention of the income from the basement nightclub with a peppercorn being paid for the long leasehold of the remainder of the premises. A blend of both elements together with a capital receipt will also be considered.
