NOTES
1.  Every care has been taken with the preparation of these particulars, but complete accuracy cannot be guaranteed.  If there is any point, which  is of particular importance to you, please obtain professional confirmation. Alternatively, we will be pleased to check the information for you.  These Particulars do not constitute a contract or part of a contract.  All measurements quoted are approximate.  The Fixtures, Fittings & Appliances have not been tested and therefore no guarantee can be given that they are in working order.  Photographs are reproduced for general information and it cannot be inferred that any item shown is included.  No guarantee can be given that any planning permission or listed building consent or building regulations have been applied for or approved. The agents have not been made aware of any covenants or restrictions that may impact the property, unless stated otherwise.  Any site plans used in the particulars are indicative only and buyers should rely on the Land Registry/transfer plan. 

2. The Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017 require all Estate Agents to obtain sellers’ and buyers’ identity.

3. The Letheringham/Easton area may be impacted by solar panels being installed on nearby agricultural land.  Cherry Tree is in a lower position and focuses on the river rather than views of agricultural land. Therefore, it is the agent’s opinion that the property is not significantly impacted by any proposals.  The agents have plans showing the proposed development that can be emailed to interested parties. 

4.  Whilst the lower part of the garden can flood at times and was impacted by Storm Babet in October 2023, the house and garaging is raised up significantly from the river and is not impacted.
