Buyers should note this is an older solid-brick building (constructed before 1900) and walls are assumed uninsulated; further insulation or energy-efficiency works may be desirable. The area shows higher-than-average crime rates and local deprivation indicators, which may concern some purchasers. Maintenance of communal elements is on an as-and-when basis.
