Information

The current existing owners will be installing the new drop kerbs to the main road and will also be demolishing part of the front brick boundary wall to create the new driveway access. They will also be erecting the new boundary fence to separate their existing house from the plot, saving the buyer this expense. The new owners of the building plot will be responsible for the left hand side boundary, which is currently a hedge and also the rear hedge boundary. The current owners can provide temporary electric and water to help with starting the construction. Prior to the new property being occupied the existing brick outbuilding will need to be demolished, however this could provide useful storage whilst the build is in progress.

Plot Size

The main plot is approximately 18.6m wide and 30m deep with a long 4m wide driveway accessed from King Edward Road and continuing to the left side of the existing house (73a King Edward Road) to access the site. The property house will be approximately 194.9sq.m/2,097 sq.ft excluding the garage.
