The lease was originally 999 years from 23/11/1956 (around 930 years remaining) and has a nominal ground rent of £7.35 — buyers should verify lease details with their solicitor. The house was built in the 1960s with cavity walls (assumed uninsulated): while well maintained, the home could benefit from energy-efficiency improvements such as wall insulation to reduce running costs.
Overall this is a well-presented, family-friendly home in a quiet cul-de-sac, offering immediate occupation with realistic potential to personalise and improve energy performance. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the gardens, garage and flexible living space.
