On 29th May 2007, a client instructed a Phew! Kennington Conveyancing solicitor to assist in the purchase of a property located at Hayles Street, Kennington, London. The property was bought for £ 512500 by the client. The London Borough of Southwark was related to this conveyancing deal.
The Conveyancing solicitor inspected the Office copy entries related to the freehold property. The absolute title of the property eliminated worries about its ownership as it was guaranteed by the registry. The solicitor also assured that the property was occupied by the seller and his immediate family members before the sale.
There were some additional rights passing with the property as per conveyance dated 11th April 1983. There were also some additional restrictive covenants registered against the property according to conveyance dated 11th April 1983, referred in third schedule. The owner was recommended to abide by the covenants so as to avoid any sort of conflict in regard to use and management of the property.
The conveyancing solicitor also revealed that the property stood in an area which came under the purview of Smoke Control Order and Clean air Act. As per Smoke Control Order, smoke from chimney was not allowed and the Clean air Act did not even allow smoke of any kind from other premises, as well.
Hayles Street is adopted & is maintained by London Borough of Southwark. However, the rear side of the property was not adopted which meant that a contribution has to be made for its maintenance and development. Our Conveyancing Solicitors’ inspection did not reveal any future plans regarding the arrival of new roads or maintenance of the existing roads.
The conveyancing solicitor who appeared for the seller was Jenkins Law and the estate agent was KFH Estate Agents.
