Description
***GUIDE PRICE £800,000 TO £850,000***
***CASH BUYERS ONLY*** Four/five bedroom detached house near Clare House School with a structural engineer's report indicating the double storey side extension requires underpinning. The property as a whole needs modernisation and the cost quoted by a local specialist firm for remedial underpinning is in the region of £25,000 plus VAT. Having been a much loved family home for many years, the property is priced to reflect this work, giving cash buyers who are willing to take on the expense of remedying the structural defects and updating the accommodation, the opportunity to end up with a long term family home in a prime location.
