Top tips for a Oundle Home Buyers Survey

The oldest building in Oundle is the Talbot Hotel, which is an Elizabethan hotel. Parts of the hotel are thought to have been part of an inn in the 1500s. It was originally built from wood, but it was renovated with stone ruins from the nearby Fotheringhay Castle. There are other Elizabethan houses still standing in and around Peterborough such as those in Orton Waterville.

Lots of developments occurred during the Georgian era so the town is generally considered a Georgian market town. Properties from this era are such as those on Church Street and Upper Benefield.

The nearest new development area to Oundle is the Bluebelle development situated in Corby that provides new detached homes that have two, three or four bedrooms.

Being a riverside town, there are various streets that may be subject to flood warnings and alerts. This includes South Road, New Road and Bassett Ford Road. If you are concerned that a property you are looking to buy is in a flood risk area, you should consider getting a flood risk report (click for more details).	Raised levels of noise pollution in Oundle are as a result of the A605 that runs down the east side of the town. Road towards this side of the town are affected such as Ashton Road, Romwell Way and Webb Close.	According to the UK Government's Public Health England, Oundle is in a raised radon area, with properties built there having a higher probability than average of experiencing ground Radon emissions. The raised Radon area has a maximum radon potential of 1-3% in the northwest of the town, and a maximum of 3-5% in the rest of it (the percentage is the chance of a property being built where Radon emissions might measure above the action level). If you are concerned that a property you are buying is in an area of raised Radon, please click to visit Public Health England's UK Radon Map.

What happens if the conveyancing falls through before the survey takes place will I get a full refund?

If you need to cancel the survey for any reason at all you need to ensure that you have given the surveyor 48 hours’ notice before the survey takes place. If the surveyor has 48 or more hours’ notice then you will be provided with a full refund.

If however you only give the surveyor 24 hours’ notice then there will be a penalty of £50 due to the fact that the surveyor will not be able to fill that slot in time.

If you cancel on the same day as the Survey Date, or any time after the surveyor has attended the property then no refund is due however the report will be delivered in accordance with the terms agreed with the surveyor.
