When converted the apartment block was set up as leasehold however in 2016 the owners of the 5 flats in Litchfield House decided to purchase the freehold from Marshall Park Estates. The purchase was made by their company Litchfield House Management Ltd under a Collective Enfranchisement arrangement. The 5 owners are all directors of Litchfield House Management Ltd and anyone buying into the building would become a director and part owner.
