Additional Information
The property benefits from 16 solar panels under the original Government Feed-in Tariff (FiT) scheme, with approximately 5–7 years remaining. The tariff will be transferred to the buyer at no cost. Payments are made quarterly and currently cover, or exceed, the household’s electricity costs. In 2025, the total income generated was £922 (full details are available on the checklist). The panels have recently been professionally cleaned and pigeon-proofed to ensure maximum efficiency.
