Agents Notes A structural inspection (Sept 2007) identified historic differential settlement to the rear extension of the property, likely linked to previously defective drainage which has since been addressed.
Movement is considered long-standing with no evidence of recent significant activity. Minor cracking was noted in the bathroom, attributed primarily to thermal movement rather than structural failure.
No related cracking observed elsewhere internally. Recommended actions included monitoring the crack over time and routine maintenance of drainage systems.
The structure was expected to stabilise following remedial drainage works. Potential buyers must do their own research prior to negations.
Agents Notes We have been advised there may be a TPO on the beech trees on the property, but this has not been confirmed.
