Location

The property is a freestanding building located next to the main station building.

The train operator wishes to ensure that stations have a high quality retail offer for their passengers benefit. Our aim is to ensure that their stations are best in class and the retail should reflect those aspirations.
The premises are currently trading as a coffee shop. The premises have the following approximate floor areas, measured on a net internal basis:

• Total Area 17.84 sq. m

The premises are being offered by way of a new 6-year tri-partite lease from 18th August 2024. The lease will be contracted out of the security of tenure and provisions of the 1954 Landlord & Tenant Act. Standard Railway Lease Terms will apply. The lease will not permit assignment or sub-letting.
If the tenant requires a longer lease then subject to Network Rail Infrastructure Limited, a longer term may be available. The incoming tenant will be expected to pay the landlord and if a longer lease is required, the superior landlords costs associated with the grant of this lease.

The landlord is seeking Minimum Guaranteed Rental offers in the region of £11,000 per annum along with supporting turnover rent provision. Subject to the landlord's formal approval, a rent free period may be available for the tenant undertaking agreed investment to the premises.

Our client is anticipating interest from catering retailers.

The tenant will be responsible for all utilities. Should the landlord permit use of the station bins then the tenant will pay towards the costs of refuse collection.

Building Insurance is currently £410.00 per annum plus vat

There is currently no service charge for the premises. The landlord reserves the right to introduce any charge in the future.

The incoming tenant will be required to provide detailed annotated shop fit plans and signage proposals demonstrating a high quality shopfit for the Superior Landlord and Landlord’s approval.

The payment of business rates will be the responsibilty of the tenant. A search on HM Government website has been unsuccessful in finding the premises within the Rating List. Interested parties should contact Hounslow Local Authority for further information.
*An incoming tenant may benefit from Small Business Rates Relief. Interested parties are to make their own enquiries in this regard
