Agents Note

The front retaining wall with the road had to be rebuilt by the Council in 2017. At the time the Council approached the current owners to pay for the work as they felt it was the owners responsibility. This request was refused on the advice of their solicitor as they felt the retaining wall was the responsibility of the council. Since nothing more has been heard from the Council relating to this matter and it hasn't been fully resolved so we would suggest that anyone wishing to make an offer requests their solicitor to communicate with the vendors solicitor to ensure that all parties are happy to proceed. Details of the solicitor can be provided by the John Goodwin Malvern Office.
