First Choice House

This scheme is an impressive office to residential conversation project, located close to Gatwick airport.  The development consists of 6000 sqm (or 65,ooo sq ft).  The developer approached us shortly after purchasing the building. 

We worked closely with the developer and their solicitor to ensure the leases were consistent with our client’s practical management plans..

The property benefits from the following assets and services:

• Smart metering for gas and electric
• Two passenger lifts which have undergone major refurbishment
• Three dry risers
• Fire alarm and emergency lighting
• CCTV and TV Comms
• Caretaker
• Lightning conductors
• 6 water and waste pumps. Water comes up from storm drains on the road and is held in 2 large storage tanks. It is then pumped from the tanks out into the sewage treatment system
• Door intercom and automated gates
• Underground car park for approx. 140 cars.

The property is very well located and the flats have proven to be an ideal investment for buy to let investors. There is a bus stop directly outside the building which can take residents into Crawley or towards Gatwick airport. The building is also on the edge of an industrial estate and there are several four star hotels in the near vicinity.

We continue to manage the development on behalf of the Landlord and also collect the ground rent.
