Sokolovská 129/50, Praha 8 / Karlín
History of the publishing house in Karlín
It was in 1866 when Mamert Knapp and his associate established the company Mikuláš a Knapp bookshop, printing office, lithography, publishing house and bindery in Karlín. Mamert Knapp died in 1896.
His sons, František (1874-1919) and Václav (1875 - 1941), took his place in the company. In 1903 they bought their own house at the then Královská (now Sokolovská) street no. 129/500. They also bought new book-printing machines and tried to achieve the best possible results in colour reproduction. They were successful and the company achieved the finest three-color book printing.
Location
The property we offer is plot no. 74 with an area of 561 m² a three-storey building with an attic and a basement, i.e. apartment building, with a total useable floor area of 1500 m², including the basement and attic. The property is located at Sokolovská 129/50, 186 00, Praha 8 - Karlín. The property is listed as the Certificate of Title (LV) no. 38, for cadastral territory 730955 Karlín, Prague municipality, registered with the Cadastral Office for the capital city of Prague (copy of the respective Certificate of Title no. 566, cadastral territory Nové Město, Prague municipality, is attached to this offer).
The property is located in a heritage protected area in Prague 8 - Karlín, near Karlínské náměstí. Building no. 129 is built as a terraced house, similar to the surrounding buildings in the area of nowadays mostly administrative and residential buildings. The location of this part of Prague is suitable both for accommodation and commercial use (offices, shops, services, etc.) as well as for residential living. From the point of view of residential living and business activities it belongs to one of the most and consistently desired parts of Prague thanks to its location, close to the centre of the capital, similar buildings in the surrounding area and good civic amenities. Florenc and Križíkova metro stations are within 500 meters (7 minutes walking distance), the city centre of Náměstí Republiky is 1.5 km away. The tram stop is less than 100 m.
The house was built around 1830. It is currently divided into several parts: apartments, shops, offices, storage, cellars and attics. Most parts are rented out. The highest value in relation to rental income is provided by apartments, shops and offices. The other parts will have added value in the future (after reconstruction), especially as there is the potential to build more floors.
The residential part of the house consists of five apartments with the disposition of one studio, 2kk, 3kk, 4kk and 4kk. Some apartments are rented, some are used by the current owners. The commercial parts of the house are currently being rented by a printing office, a leather haberdashery, a shop selling air conditioning systems and a photo studio. Offices on the 2nd floor are rented under market terms. Cellars are not used for the time being. Most of the space in the attic is available, in part serving as a storage space.
The current annual rental yield is CZK 1,250,000. The lower yield is affected by the fact that the maximum market terms in the rental market of residential and commercial premises are not achieved in the lease of some parts of the building. The potential yield from the annual lease amounts to CZK 2,000,000.
