“A ‘building designed or adapted for living in’ was a ‘house … reasonably so called’ within s 2(1) of the Leasehold Reform Act 1967 if it was constructed as a house for single occupation and the result of the most recent works which altered the building, assessed objectively, was that the property had been adapted for living in, the emphasis being on the physical appearance and character of the property rather than the user.”
