Agents Note

Ground Water During the vendors’ 26 years of ownership, clear groundwater has entered the property on approximately five or six occasions. The house sits on a steep hillside, allowing water to drain away naturally. An old well at the north-east corner of the property is believed to date from the 16th/17th century and may help manage groundwater levels. An electric pump is used to remove excess water from the well and redirect it to a lower-level surface water drain/culvert in the lane. No insurance claims have been made, and the vendors have not found additional preventative measures necessary to date.
