York Conveyancing Solicitor handles purchase of detached dwelling on Filey Road

Conveyancing in York for the purchase a freehold abode on Filey Road, Scarborough, York, YO11 was carried out by Fridaysmove -approved Solicitor Sarah McGregor in July 2010.

The local authority district for the property is located at the Town Hall on St Nicholas Street in York, YO11 2HG.

Planning permissions were revealed in the results of the local authority search, including the erection of a two storey side extension to form a garage and two bedrooms in July 2003 and the erection of a conservatory to the rear of the property in September 2007. These works were further investigated by Sarah and all relevant documentation and completion certificates were obtained from the seller’s Conveyancing Solicitor, B & C Solicitors (6-28 Northway, York, YO11 1JL), to ensure that the conditions set out by the council were met.

It is important that the appropriate planning permission is sought by home owners when carrying out renovations, as the local planning authority will often place restrictions and guidelines on the permitted development. For example, the side extension project was granted provided that the brickwork and roofing tiles used matched as closely as possible to the existing building in the interests of the architectural integrity and appearance of the overall development. Similarly, the conservatory to the rear of the property was granted permission provided that the windows used were glazed to maintain privacy and the texture of the windows be dense enough to ensure that no objects or person positioned on either side of the glazing could be readily distinguishable.

The estate agent handling the sale on behalf of the vendors was the Colin Ellis branch located at  49 Aberdeen Walk in York, YO11 1BD.

The transaction was completed on the 30th of July 2010 for this property, valued at £346,000.
