The property is currently vacant, and the agent encourages interested parties to feel free to inquire about arranging a viewing on their preferred date. Critical agent notes have been translated for full disclosure: The property is subject to the Landscape Act and the Urban Regeneration Special Measures Act. Several boundary and structural conditions are noted for transfer in their current state: structural framework columns encroach on the southern and eastern neighboring lots; a retaining wall on the western side is located on the boundary line; branches and leaves of garden trees encroach onto neighboring properties; and there are water leak marks in a second-floor north-facing Western-style room. On a positive note, the roof was painted in 2020, and the windows were replaced with Low-E glass in 2005.
Inside, the home is well-equipped for comfortable living. It includes a system kitchen with a three-burner gas stove, a dedicated toilet, a shower-equipped bathroom, and storage in every room including a shoe cupboard.
