Important practical points: tenure is not confirmed and must be checked with your solicitor. The vendor information advises buyers to verify fixtures, fittings and any past extensions for planning or building-control consent. There are two bathrooms for five bedrooms and the property condition/working order of services is not guaranteed, so factor potential maintenance or modernisation into your plans.
