The property is of ‘non-standard Construction’ comprising a ‘system built’ steel frame with brick external cladding and inset timber boarding details, gabled roof covered with concrete tiles and solid ground floor slab. It is believed the property may have been constructed using the Trusteel Mk2 system or similar which were in use post-war until 1970s. We found no evidence of any serious defects or issues that would lead us to advise against purchasing this property but it is important that a purchaser understands that the property is of non-standard construction and the special considerations associated with this.
