Delightful house in secluded location
Spring Cottage, Sawley.
Prices £245,000
THE property of the week is a modern detached house, delightfully located in a
secluded position in Sawley. The house was built seven years
ago by the vendors and is of tim berframed construction. It is in a
delightful position on the fringe of the village in the former grounds of Riverside Court Nursing Home. The property is beautifully located, with mature trees to the west and rear gardens adjoining open farm
land. A large ornamental pond with two
fountains and a waterfall lies in the garden to the side of the house.
Well stocked with marginal and aquatic plants, the pond is sur rounded by a limestone rockery
BUYING a home for the first time can be a daunting prospect, so Property Profile has compiled a 10-point tips guide for
first-time buyers. and there is an adjoining patio and
seating area. The accommodation comprises
hallway, cloakroom, a large lounge, “L” shaped dining kitchen, utility room and study/4th bedroom on the ground floor. On the first floor there is a master bedroom, with en suite shower room, front bedroom, shower room, side bedroom and
family bathroom. The lounge is a very pleasant
entertaining room, with many inter esting features, including French windows leading to the garden and a feature rustic brick inglenook- style fireplace with a dog grate fire and copper canopy. The house has a double garage with an additional car/boat/caravan
parking area to one side. For an appointment to view, con
tact Mortimer Gorse and Ross, 5 &7 Castle Street, Clitheroe (tele phone 01200 427331).
1) Set your own agenda There are many people, not just sellers but lenders and other professionals in the hous ing market who are falling over themselves to get your business and our money. It’s up to you to set your own agenda, oth
erwise you’ll find they set it for you. Start by making a checklist of what you want in your ideal home. Then add a series of searching questions which you can put to the estate agents and would-be sellers to see how far their properties measure up to your expec
tations. 2) Go around with your eyes open When inspecting potential homes, don’t be
blinded by the decor -after all, it’s only paper-thin — but use your eyes to spot the less obvious features. Is the roof in a good state of repair? Are there any cracks in the walls or ceilings? Is the closed door under the kitchen sink hiding a damp patch? If you think you really like a property, go
back at a different time of day or week, preferably when it’s raining. You’ll not only see if the traffic’s any heavier but you’ll find out if the gutters need repair too! Also, ask the neighbours what the area s
like to live in. If the nearest shop’s a mile away and you do not have a car, it could soon lose its attraction. 3) Take advice You must take professional advice, prefer ably from a professional surveyor, if you are really serious about a property. Don’t rely simply on a valuation prepared
for your lender. That report is very basic and it’s prepared to safeguard your lender’s interests, not yours. Ask for a house or flat buyer’s report, which will tell you a good
deal more.
If the property was built before 1900, a full structural survey would be worthwhile. It’s more expensive but it will buy peace of
■
mind. 4) Read between the lines You have to ask how long that special dis
counted rate will last. What’s the annual percentage rate (APR), which shows what
you pay for borrowing all the money in the deal, including the cost of “hidden” extras such as valuation, arrangement and legal
f@6S* Also, ask yourself if you have to buy some thing else — a particular form of insurance
5) Consider getting a fixed rate When choosing a mortgage, think about a fixed rate loan as well as the traditional vari able rate option. Fixed rate mortgages bring
policy perhaps -to get that “special” rate. P R O P E R T Y P R O F I L E - I t ’ s to p s fo r a l l th e Electricians ■
