Lyne House: The building, in its current form, was constructed in 1865 by the Broadwood family, renowned for their piano and harpsichord manufacture. The family held onto the property until the passing of the last surviving member, Captain Evelyn Henry Shudi Broadwood, in 1975. After lying empty for several years, the property was converted into apartments between 1985 and 1987. The Lyne House Residents Company Ltd was incorporated in 1994, and it wasn't until 1997 that the Freehold was acquired, enabling the leaseholders to take over the property's management.

Share of Freehold: The property owns a share of the freehold and has a long lease of 215 years (from 25th December 1985). There is an annual service charge of £3,240 per year (payable in monthly instalments of £270), which includes building insurance. Further information is available upon request. – To be confirmed
