AGENTS NOTE
In 2019 the property was subject to a subsidence insurance claim for cracking that was identified to the first-floor extension area on the front left-hand side when facing the property. The level of damage was classified as category 2 on a scale of 1-5 so deemed as minor. In the Insurers professional opinion, the damage was caused by moisture extraction by roots altering the moisture content of the clay subsoil. The mitigation measures were the removal of mature shrubbery adjacent to the property and assessing the likely impact of the council owned Oak Tree on the verge outside the neighbouring property. The adjacent shrubbery has been removed, and the Council subsequently assessed the Oak Tree and put in place an evidence led intervention that materially reduces risk by maintaining the crown size on a three yearly schedule. The property was monitored between 2019 and 2020 for 10 months and found to be stable. Repair work was undertaken which consisted of general crack repairs and some internal redecorating. The property is sold with a certificate of structural adequacy along with the final schedule of work issued by the insurer in September 2020. The seller confirms that they have had no issue in acquiring full and comprehensive insurance when changing to another insurer in 2025. Naturally; all the information regarding to the claim can be viewed in our offices by appointment and will be sent to any purchasers solicitor for their approval also.
