Demised premises

What a leaseholder owns is often defined in the lease as the “Demised Premises”. The leasehold ownership of a flat usually relates to everything within the four walls of the flat, including floorboards and plaster to walls and ceiling, but does not usually include the external or structural walls. A garden can be included, unless it is a communal garden for the building.
