Probate Sale Please be advised that the sale of this property is subject to probate.
This means that before the sale can be legally completed, a Grant of Probate must be obtained from the Probate Registry. Probate is the legal process by which the estate of a deceased person is administered, and the Grant of Probate confirms the authority of the executors named in the Will (or administrators, if there is no Will) to deal with the deceased’s assets, including the sale of any property.

In this case, an application for probate has already been submitted, and the executors are currently awaiting the official grant. Until this is received, the property cannot be legally transferred to a new owner. We understand this may result in a degree of uncertainty regarding timescales, and we will make every effort to keep all interested parties informed as the matter progresses. For further information regarding the probate status or any other aspect of the sale, please do not hesitate to contact our office.

Japanese Knotweed. Please note that Japanese knotweed is present at the property. To proceed with mortgage finance, most lenders will require a professional Japanese knotweed survey and a management/treatment plan prepared by a PCA-accredited contractor, in line with RICS guidance.
This usually includes an insurance-backed guarantee (often 5–10 years). Buyers should check their specific lender’s requirements early, as conditions can vary, and ensure their solicitor and surveyor are satisfied before progressing.
