DESCRIPTION AND CONSTRUCTION:
Alderbank is believed to date back to the early 1960's and is of traditional construction, under a tiled roof, the property lends itself for both enlargement and some modernisation subject to obtaining the necessary consent. The property has much charm and character and enjoys the benefit of a superb landscaped garden of 0.27 of an acre, which offers seclusion.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: A structural engineers report,recently undertaken by our vendor clients, has identified that the bungalow floors (concrete) have compacted & will all need to be replaced. A copy of the report is available for inspection, upon request. The n++familyn++ have confirmed that they are not going to complete the remedial works, simply,because they can see little point duplicating this work, if the property is going to be structurally altered/refurbished.

We, as the selling agents, believe the property, in its current condition, will be difficult to mortgage & would, therefore, respectfully request that any funding requirement would need to be discussed, with your chosen lender, prior to pursuing the purchase. This would not be necessary in the event of a cash purchasern++.
