How to read this comparison

Headline details are agent or publisher claims unless a source-backed fact is explicitly marked verified. Aveno interpretations and calculations are labelled separately. Unknown means evidence is missing, not that a property fails a check.

The Lookout

The current Baufritz house was completed in 2016; this is land/predecessor history, not a comparable sale.

Transaction source ↗A historical sale is not an earlier asking price; no price reduction is inferred.
Important missing informationThe Lookout
  • UPRN/title-number bridge and full woodland lease
  • Baufritz construction/warranty/maintenance history
  • Measured operating costs and property-level coastal/surface-water/slope reports
Missing evidence is not a negative finding.

The reality of ownership

Features can bring both enjoyment and ongoing attention. These observations identify what to investigate, not estimated bills or confirmed defects.

The Lookout

Pool or spa

Publisher evidenceThe listing attributes an air-source heat pump, solar-assisted hot water, infinity pool, hot tub, triple garage and EPC B.

Practical questionWhat servicing, water treatment, plant replacement and winterisation does the pool or spa require, and can you provide service records?

Works and completion

Publisher evidenceCompleted in 2016 by Baufritz and featured on Channel 4's Flat Pack Mansions.

Practical questionCan you provide completion certificates, outstanding works, transferable warranties and the snagging record?

Ask before you view

  1. What servicing, water treatment, plant replacement and winterisation does the pool or spa require, and can you provide service records?
  2. Can you provide the current EPC, commissioning certificates, warranties and recent measured energy use?
  3. Can you provide completion certificates, outstanding works, transferable warranties and the snagging record?
  4. What evidence can you provide before a viewing to resolve: UPRN/title-number bridge and full woodland lease?
  5. For The Lookout's advertised 7 bedrooms, which share a level with a bathroom and living space, and what steps are on the route from parking?

Occasional occupation: ask who checks this property while empty and what its services and insurance require.
