PRIME CENTRAL LONDON RETAIL & RESIDENTIAL INVESTMENT

A rare opportunity to acquire the freehold interest in two prime Central London retail and residential buildings

Executive Summary • A rare opportunity to acquire the freehold interest in two prime Central London retail and residential buildings with potential for residential development. • The property is located in the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea, in close proximity to High Street Kensington Underground station. • Two attractive period buildings comprising ten retail units, a dental practice and nineteen residential flats providing total accommodation of 35,981 sq ft (3,342.7 sq m). • Freehold. • Let to nationally recognised retail tenants including Russell & Bromley, East, Body Shop, Everything Everywhere and Oliver Bonas. • Total Gross Current Rental Income of £2,366,704 per annum of which 92% is derived from the retail component, 7% from the residential flats and the remainder from the dental practice. • An opportunity to redevelop the residential upper floors of 129-137 Kensington High Street and create further net saleable residential space by adding an additional floor to the property subject to planning. • The residential element is let on a combination of Assured Shorthold Tenancies and Regulated Tenancies providing scope for a significant reversion. • Additional short term value enhancement through taking direct management control of five flats currently let to Body Shop on an over-riding lease expiring in 2017. • Further potential value enhancement opportunities within the retail component to extend lease terms, reconfigure units and improve the tenant mix. • Offers are sought for our client’s freehold interest. Consideration will be given to offers for the whole and for the individual blocks as two separate lots. The guide price for the entire property is £54,000,000 (Fifty Four Million Pounds) subject to contract and exclusive of VAT. • A purchase at this level reflects a Net Initial Yield of 4.54% on the retail component, assuming purchaser’s costs of 5.80%, with a capital value of £868 per sq ft attributable to the residential component.

London London is the largest city in Europe with a population of 8.16 million and a global destination for business, retailing, investment, education and tourism. The capital is the number one global financial centre and the driving force of the UK economy, accounting for 22% of the country’s GDP. It is also the centre of operations for two thirds of all Fortune 500 companies and ranks 1st in the Zen Global Financial Centre’s Index. In addition to London’s strength as a global business centre the city boasts a unique heritage, an internationally renowned retail offer, world class universities and a diverse mix of cultures that together make it one of the global capitals of the world. London’s ongoing ability to attract international tourists, which now total almost 17 million visitors annually, has led to an estimated spend of approaching £11 billion pounds per annum. International flights to London come via six major airports including London Heathrow, the world’s busiest international airport.

The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea The Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea, located two miles west of Mayfair, is one of London’s most prestigious and affluent areas and home to some of London’s finest residential dwellings. The Royal Borough occupies an area of approximately five square miles bordered by the River Thames to the south and Hyde Park to the east. It is home to an estimated 190,000 people making it one of the most densely populated districts in London. Within a one mile radius of Kensington High Street 77.5% of the population is classified in the most affluent social groups of ABC1 and 48.5% of the resident population is employed within managerial or professional positions. Kensington is primarily residential in character and yet is home to 12,000 businesses providing 120,000 jobs. The Royal Borough also has a number of world class tourist attractions including the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Natural History Museum, The Royal Albert Hall and the Science Museum. The area further benefits from its proximity to the public open spaces of Hyde Park and Kensington Palace Gardens. Visitors are a significant driver of the local economy, with over £3 billion coming into the Borough from non-resident spending. The Borough is home to prestigious events such as The Chelsea Flower Show, held in the grounds of The Royal Hospital, which attracts 150,000 visitors each year.

129-137 & 151-161 KENSINGTON HIGH STREET, LONDON, W8

Retailing in Kensington Kensington High Street is one of Central London’s premier shopping destinations providing approximately 750,000 sq ft of prime retail accommodation in a compact and attractive shopping environment. Kensington is popular with major national and international retailers with a critical mass of large flagship stores including Marks & Spencer, Whole Foods, Boots The Chemist, H&M, Gap, Next, Top Shop and Waitrose. The retail offer is set to improve further with the ongoing redevelopment of the 50,000 sq ft Barker’s Arcade where work is underway to create four units which we understand have already attracted strong interest from international retail brands. In addition to being one of London’s principal retail locations the Borough is internationally recognised for some of the world’s finest five star hotels and Michelin star restaurants.

Situation The property provides two substantial retail and residential parades within the heart of Kensington High Street on the popular south side of the Street and a short walk from High Street Kensington London Underground station. The property is situated opposite the new Zara Home store and in close proximity to Massimo Dutti, Marks & Spencer, Boots The Chemist, Tesco Metro and the popular Kensington Arcade. Kensington Church Street is within a few minutes’ walk providing a boutique retail offer leading to the busy and fashionable Notting Hill area.

Kensington Investment Market Investor demand for Central London retail remains strong with demand significantly outweighing supply. Overseas investors are attracted by the political stability of the UK and the liquidity of the Central London market whilst domestic investors are attracted by the excellent growth prospects, asset management potential and scope for further capital growth. This strong demand and limited availability of stock has seen significant capital growth with yields on key streets such as Bond Street and Oxford Street hardening by approximately 75 basis points in the last 9 months, to between 2.00%-2.50% NIY.

PRIME CENTRAL LONDON RETAIL & RESIDENTIAL INVESTMENT

Kensington Residential Market Central London’s prime residential market is one of the strongest real estate markets in the world. The prime London market has seen a cumulative price growth of 66% since Q2 2009. Current economic and demographic conditions provide a solid platform for continued growth and performance, particularly within the most prime locations. There is continued demand from both domestic and overseas investors competing for highly limited supply. Kensington High Street is a desirable residential location due to its good local amenities which, combined with the historic

significance of the area, means that Kensington and Chelsea has commanded some of the highest residential prices in London. The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea is also home to one of the most exclusive streets in the world, namely Kensington Palace Gardens, which hosts some of the most expensive homes in the world. Kensington rental value growth increased 2.6% in the 3 months to September 2014, which is above the prime Central London average.

Residential Development Opportunity 129-137 Kensington High Street presents an exciting opportunity to reconfigure and refurbish the existing building and extend the residential upper floors, subject to obtaining vacant possession and the usual consents. The owner has drawn up indicative plans for a comprehensive remodelling of the first to fourth floors, which will improve the layout and density of the accommodation. The plans, which would be subject to planning consent and vacant possession, include: • Alteration of the current roof line (see photo and plan below) to create a new 5th floor of approximately 2,484 sq ft (230.8 sq m) of net saleable area. This approach has successfully been achieved on the adjoining properties which are of a similar design and age. • Conversion of the dental practice (currently let at only £24,842 per annum) to residential use and redeveloped into a prime first floor apartment of approximately 92.90 sq m (1,000 sq ft). • New lift and stair core to all floors allowing for the conversion of the entrance stairwell and lobby to 2 Wright’s Lane to residential accommodation. • Removal of the self-contained stair cores at 135 and 137 Kensington High Street and redevelopment of this space to create further net saleable area. The proposed scheme would extend to approximately 19,563 sq ft (1,718 sq m) net saleable area of residential accommodation. Indicative plans of this scheme are available on the marketing dataroom. A very similar scheme was consented at 151-161 Kensington High Street in 2012, which included change of use of D1 (non-residential institutions) at 1st floor level, reconfiguring the existing accommodation, remodelling the access to include a new lift and stair core and the addition of a new floor at 5th floor level. Please refer to planning consents PP/12/04968, PP/12/03067 and PP/13/01064 for further information.

The nineteen flats provide an exciting opportunity for a comprehensive redevelopment and extension of the residential component subject to vacant possession and planning consent

In addition to the wider potential for redevelopment of the residential upper floors (subject to planning permission) there are a number of other short and medium term opportunities to enhance value:

• Negotiate out tenant break options on units 129 and 131 Kensington High Street to improve the Weighted Average Unexpired Lease Term.

• Negotiate a surrender of the lease at 159-161 Kensington High Street (DSG Retail) to facilitate a regear with the subtenant, Vision Express, at 159 Kensington High Street and a new letting of 161 Kensington High Street. • Open discussions with Russell & Bromley to regear their lease and extend the lease term. • Take a surrender of the Body Shop lease to obtain direct management control of the five residential flats above number 137 Kensington High Street thus potentially creating an opportunity for a larger residential development whilst also securing a new longer lease of the retail premises.

32

• Improve short term residential income by leasing flats C and M, 129-133 Kensington High Street on new Assured Shorthold Tenancies. • Significant reversionary potential within the Regulated Tenancies as and when vacant possession can be obtained with new lettings on market terms. • Take a surrender of the lease of the 1,183 sq ft dental practice, currently let at a low passing rent of only £21 per sq ft and obtain change of use to residential, subject to planning.
