The seller has received provisional approval for a five-storey rear extension that would increase the total gross floor area to 8,828 sq ft and yield up to seven more rooms. The differential premium required to intensify the land use was paid for this year.

According to Danial Arun, senior marketing executive of investment sales at OrangeTee Advisory, the new owner has the flexibility to retain the existing hotel operator or could take over the property with vacant possession and rebrand it. “The prospect of expanding the hotel to 31 rooms will appeal to potential buyers seeking a sizeable boutique hotel with an investment quantum that is relatively (palatable),” he says.
