Important Tenure Information: Please note, this property does not fall under a conventional Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST). As the annexe forms part of the landlord’s main residence, the arrangement will be on a lodger-style agreement rather than a standard tenancy. This provides the reassurance of being part of a family-owned home while still enjoying a private, self-contained living space. Due to the nature of the accommodation and its location within the landlord’s home, the property is suitable for a single occupant only. Pets will not be accepted.
