LEASE DETAILS

The property is leasehold (approx 88 years remaining).

AGENT'S NOTES

It is very important to note: these buildings are some of many post-war local authority homes which are classed as 'non standard construction' (these particular flats are 'Wimpey No Fines' construction – which is the name given to this type of cast in situ concrete structure, used by the house building contractor, George Wimpey Homes). There are some mortgage lenders who do not include such NSC properties in their approved construction type lending criteria. Therefore, we would ask any purchaser who might require a mortgage to make initial enquiries with their broker/lender on the matter. Please contact us if you would like further details. To book a viewing, to ask any questions, or to make an offer, you are very welcome to contact us 7 days a week by phone or email. We are the exclusive selling agent for this property. Viewings are by appointment only.
