Top tips for a Writtle Home Buyers Survey
Writtle has large Georgian properties on streets such as The Green and Margaretting Road.
There are many Victorian properties in the village, with the most prominent being Longmeads House which was built in the 1880s. It changed ownership in 1930 and was bought by the Essex County Council in 1950. It is now the village’s community centre.
A new development near Writtle, in Chelmsford, is Centenary Way on Beaulieu Close. This offers a range of new build houses in varying sizes.

A tributary of the River Can runs town the east of the village which means houses within these areas mmay be subject to flood alerts. This is houses on roads such as Lawford Lane and Bridge Street. 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). | To the south of the Writtle town centre, the A414 causes noise pollution for streets such as Hunts Drive and Bulimers Way. To the north, the A1060 raises noise pollution for Fitzwalter Place and St Fabian's Drive. The east of the town is affected by the railway's noise on roads such as Prykes Drive. | According to a recent environmental search for a property on South Woodham Ferrers in Chelmsford claimed the porperty was within 50m of potential ground instability. Subsidence depends on local conditions so could be an issue for Writtle. |

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?
A Home Buyers Survey is completed by a qualified RICS surveyor and delivers a visual inspection of the property in Writtle and the surrounding garden. The aim of the survey, whether a Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or a HomeBuyers Report, is to identify potential risks or defects that you may not know are there such as cracks or damage to the structure of the property, subsidence, damp and infestations.
