## Risks and restrictions Not a listed building Not in a conservation area No tree preservation order Title register restrictions (HD337818): - The owner cannot claim a 'right to light or air'. This means they cannot legally stop neighbors from building on their own land, even if that new building blocks some light or airflow to this property. - There is a standard legal restriction that prevents a single owner from selling the property or taking out a new loan against it on their own. This is common when a property is owned by more than one person to ensure all owners' interests are protected. - The lease contains rules (known as 'alienation' clauses) that restrict how the property can be sold or transferred to others, ensuring that any new owner meets the requirements set out in the original lease agreement. No environmental risks recorded
