SERVICES
We understand the property does not have the benefit of any services. Electricity is available nearby. The nearest water main is some distance away and it is anticipated that a private borehole would be more cost effective but prospective purchases should satisfy themselves of the location and availability of services and make their own relevant enquiries. There is no mains drainage and therefore a package treatment plant would be required as part of the development.
