Agents Note 1: Please note, the floor plans and related drawings shown may not be to scale. Agents Note 2: The purchaser will be responsible for paying the relevant Affordable Housing and Community Infrastructure Levy charges, which are believed to amount to approximately £30,000 per plot. They will also be required to reimburse the vendor for a share of the security fencing, at a cost of approximately £1000 per plot. Agents Note 3: The vendors have paid for a 10 year structural guarantee through CRL which applies to the whole site. It may be possible to transfer this to a purchaser upon payment of the relevant premium (understood to be around £2,000 per plot). Agents Note 4: There is currently an amount of top soil on the site which has resulted from the works that have already taken place, and is ready to use for the front and rear gardens to each plot. Agents Note 5: Sporting Rights - The Hopton Court Estate has historic sporting rights over the three building plots, similar to other houses in Hopton Wafers, which allows the hunting and shooting of game, as well as fishing. However, the 1980’s Highways Act forbids any shooting with a gun within 50ft. of a public road, thereby excluding all the front gardens of the three plots. Health and Safety legislation would likely also prevent any shooting in the rear gardens. These Sporting Rights have never been exercised over the ground comprising the three plots or within the gardens of other houses in the village, to the vendors knowledge. Further details and a copy of the clause can be provided by the vendors. Agents Note 6: The vendors have collated significant details with regards to construction and finishing quotes that would be useful for any first time self builder. They are more than happy to run through these figures and quotes with interested parties.
