What improvements/alterations have been made and when? When we moved into the property there was a small kitchen and the space downstairs was under-utilised. We have reconfigured the space to create a large open plan family/entertaining space consisting of a large kitchen and dining area with an adjoining reception room. There are sliding doors between the reception room and the kitchen and dining area so it can be used as a private space when needed. The new kitchen, installed in 2022, includes a large kitchen island with seating and room for a large dining table. We have kept the original lounge as a separate space on the opposite side of the house. In addition to the above we have also installed a new downstairs bathroom with electric shower and redecorated throughout the rest of the house. Outside we have added a new patio large enough for a table and chairs plus additional seating. According to the previous owners, the foundations for the extension were constructed to allow for the addition of a second floor if required.

Radon is a natural radioactive gas, which enters buildings from the ground. Exposure to high concentrations increases the risk of lung cancer.

The UK Health Security Agency defines radon Affected Areas as those with 1% chance or more of a house having a radon concentration at or above the Action Level of 200 Bq -3 m.
