• HS2 Within 250m Of The House I Want To Buy

    By Guest on 24th Aug 2015

    Hi,
    My environmental report has come back, all looks ok apart from the proposed HS2 link is going to pass within 250m of the property, will this cause problems if I wish to the sell the property in the future or cause any major problems while I am there?

    Many thanks for your help!

    It's up to you to decide whether it will be a problem for you. The potential issues have been well documented in the press and include spoiled views, excess noise, vibration damage and disruption to local road networks due to extra construction traffic. There again if it puts the property within commuting distance of London where it wasn't before this could have a positive effect on value. You purchaser will have to consider all these things when you come to sell.
