Agents Note
Due to the property's 1930s timber-framed construction, some mortgage lenders may have restrictions against lending against the property. Many lenders will still consider properties like this on a case-by-case basis, often subject to the valuer’s comments. We would encourage interested buyers to speak with a member of the team who can provide guidance and help explore suitable lending options.
