May be suitable for running your own business (coffee shop etc..) advertising potential or alternative uses subject to planning permission and consents
Full vacant possession

Location:
The Telephone Kiosk is situated outside 30 Kensington Church Street within Kensington, an affluent district in the west of central London. Public transport links include High Street Kensington underground station (Circle and District Lines), Notting Hill Gate underground station (Central, Circle and District Lines) together with a network of local bus services serving the surrounding vicinity.

Description:
These historic listed “K6” red telephone box or “Jubilee” Kiosks commemorating the silver Jubilee of the coronation of King George V. These boxes are approximately 8’3’’ high and 3ft square and were originally
designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott. Historic England have listed to preserve these iconic red kiosks and many have transformed them to coffee shops, libraries, flower shops, bakeries and defibrillators.

Potential:
The red telephone kiosks may be suitable for running your own business (coffee shop etc..) advertising potential or alternative uses subject to planning permission and consents. Prospective purchasers must rely on their own enquires in this respect.

Planning:
The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (www.rbkc.gov.uk)

Tenure
You own the kiosk and can resell at any point, but it is heritage site, so cannot remove them or alter the exterior. The kiosk is registered as a Listed Building at Historic England (www.historicengland.org.uk)

To view:
By careful external application to the telephone kiosk within daylight hours.












Important Notice:
For each Lot, a contract documentation fee of £1,500 (inclusive of VAT) is payable to Barnard Marcus Auctions by the buyer. The seller may charge additional fees payable upon completion. If applicable, such fees are detailed within the Special Conditions of Sale. Buyers are deemed to bid in full knowledge of this.

The Guide Price quoted must not be relied upon by prospective purchasers as a valuation or assessment of value of the property. It is intended to provide purchasers with an indication of the region at which the reserve may be set at the time of going to press. The guide price may be subject to variation and interested parties are advised to make regular checks for variations and should be aware that the reserve price may be either below or above the quoted guide price.

Prospective purchasers should also be aware that the eventual sale price may be above or below the guide level dependent upon competition, and should therefore not presume the guide to be indicative of the final expected sale price or the price the property is available at.

When setting the guide price, the auctioneers have given consideration to the seller’s instructions in respect of their indicated reserve price at the time of instruction. The reserve price, (the level below which the property will not be sold), remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. The guide price therefore, is intended to indicate the region at which the reserve price is intended to be set. The seller will confirm their final reserve price close to the auction date and if appropriate the auctioneers may adjust the guide price to reflect this.
Whilst Barnard Marcus make every effort to ensure the safety and security of viewers at properties, we have not carried out a detailed Health & Safety inspection of properties in our auctions and cannot therefore guarantee the safety and security of viewers.
Prospective purchasers and bidders attend properties entirely at their own risk. Particular care should be taken when accessing cellars, attics, exterior grounds and outbuildings and boundaries. All non-conducted inspections of vacant sites should be made in daylight hours only and entry into such sites is entirely at the viewers risk.
