Scottish Elises

Folks,

Just wondering whether their are any surveyors on Scottish Elise's that would be able to perform a Category 3 Survey on a property that we have purchased (obviously missives still needs to be signed etc).

Due to the property being Grade "B" listed and built in 1767, I am looking for something a little bit more than the seller's home report as I want to make sure that the property is in sound condition before finally concluding on missives (don't worry they are a while away as entry date is 26th September). Can't see any point in commissioning my own home report as I have seen how quickly these are generated.

Cheers
George

Mr BennyBennett is your man

sounds interesting

Sounds awesome, congrats!

Yep interesting and also very scary after having mostly new builds for our properties.

Here are some pics:
Main house and the sherperd's cottage (living room and kitchen/diner are located in the cottage)




Garden not quite as big in the photo. If the tree house stays then I may have somewhere to sleep if I have been bad


Living Room - lot bigger than we are used to at 7.26mx5.12m


Kitchen/Dining Room - another big room at 8.61m x 5.12m


Plans are to get a new kitchen, probably within the 1st 6 months of living in the house once we have got used to the layout.

There are also lots of nice personal touches like a completely bespoke steel crafted bannister for the stairs. The person who did the bannister also did the stags horns above the fireplace.

First time that I have been really excited about bricks and mortar

Wow - that looks epic! Congrats You must be really chuffed!

Says a lot if you are really excited about it. Old properties are built to last. Looks really nice.

Looks good

Can't beat Countryside living**

**other than in the winter when it is freezing and you get snowed in, the summer when it is hay fever season and every vehicle on the road is a tractor, the autumn when your trees blow over and you can't move for piles of leaves and every tractor is dripping mud, and spring when... err... ok, I like spring!!

Congrats, that looks ace!

You doing a Kate and Wills on the kitchen i see!!

Nice crib
Congratulations.

George - ill give you a shout in the morning

What he said! I got snowed in for 2 weeks and while the rest of the village cleared the co-op shelves of bread and milk my wife was stocking up on mince pies and mulled wine. thankfully andyg came to the rescue and dragged my golf down half a mile of untreated roads with a foot and a half of snow on it.
