Additional Note - We are aware that as well as requiring a general program of refurbishment the property has been subject to ground water flooding in the past on numerous occasions (this may effect insurance premiums). We understand that some of this relates to surface water flooding with grants being proposed to try and alleviate some of the local risk but there may be further works required at the property. We would therefore suggest that the property is only open to cash buyers as opposed to those looking to raise a mortgage against the property. Obviously buyers will have to make their own inquiries.
We understand in 1984 the first floor gable walls were strengthened from single to double skin.
We understand there has been an application on a property further down the lane, for change of use to a "children's home" for up to three "young people". We understand planning was declined. Further details can be found on Melton Borough Councils planning portal under ref:- 24/00238/CL
We are informed the property is on mains gas, electric, drainage and water (information taken from Energy performance certificate and/or vendor).
