Top tips for a Shepperton Home Buyers Survey
Shepperton is perhaps most noted for the Shepperton Studios but also the delightful Shepperton Lock. The area has a relaxed riverside village feel.
Much of the housing is a pleasant mix of Victorian terraces and detached homes – Shepperton expanded with the arrival of the railway in 1864 but there are very desirable Georgian houses along the riverside, such as in Walton Lane, and a fair amount of housing built between the 1920s and 1960s. Detached and semi-detached homes in the locale outnumber terrace homes and flats/apartments.
There are shared ownership developments, such as in Hetherington Road.

Middlesex is a county located in south east of England, however many parts of Middlesex are now commonly known as part of Greater London, with small sections in neighbouring counties.Strictly speaking Middlesex as a concept is only kept in existence by many people continuing to name it as a county on postal addresses and other contributors such as Middlesex County Cricket Club, whose home ground is at Lord's in St John's Wood, just outside Central London. It is still loved despite it not having any form of administrative function etc.
People hearing about Middlesex assume it was/is a large county because of the amount of Greater London territory (West and North London and Westminster, with the Thames as its southern boundary) which lies within its borders. It is actually the second smallest county in the UK. Middlesex was established in the Anglo-Saxon system from the territory of the Middle Saxons. The largely low-lying county's soil is dominated by clay in its north and alluvium on gravel in its south.
Middlesex contains locations as diverse as Teddington (where the tidal Thames normally finishes), Enfield, Notting Hill, Ickenham, Ealing (where the famous film studios which produced so much early film comedy still exists), Hampstead and Southall.

What’s the difference between the HomeBuyer Report and a Building Survey?
The HomeBuyer Report is a survey carried out on smaller properties of a simpler design such as purpose built flats, bungalows, maisonettes and post-1950s houses of standard construction. The HomeBuyer Report comes in a standard format and can give a great general view regarding a property's construction and condition.
In contrast, Building Surveys are bespoke and better suited to larger and/or older properties where the original construction material may have degraded and requires further commenting on outside of the scope of a HomeBuyer Report.
HomeBuyers Report in Shepperton
A HomeBuyers Report is general visual inspection for flats, new properties or bungalows of standard construction. Most leasehold flats in Shepperton should have a HomeBuyers Report, however the only exception are converted properties which may need a Building Survey.
Building Survey in Shepperton
Most freehold houses in Shepperton that are over 50 years old, that have been refurbished/developed or are unusual in style should get a Building Survey. A Building Survey used to be called the Full Structural Survey and is the most comprehensive visual inspection a surveyor can provide. Choosing a HomeBuyers Report when you should have a Building survey can be costly if key defects don't get reported in the detail you require.
If you are unsure which survey to choose you can call our surveyors and they'll help you choose - Call 01483 802 485.
