Property Information

Stylish four bedroom detached family home on an ample southerly facing corner garden plot. Open House Saturday 19 October. Contact branch for details.

Built in 1958 by the legendary Captain Alan Villiers, this captivating property served as his retirement home until his passing in 1982. Captain Villiers, a world-renowned seafarer, author, and adventurer, left an indelible mark on maritime history. Among his many accomplishments, he played a pivotal role in the construction of the Mayflower II, a faithful replica of the ship that carried the Pilgrim Fathers to Plymouth Rock over 400 years ago. In 1957, to commemorate the 350th anniversary of the original Mayflower's voyage, Captain Villiers commanded the Mayflower II across the Atlantic, culminating in a triumphant arrival in New York City's East River on July 1st, where he and his crew were honored with a ticker-tape parade. Today, the Mayflower II remains seaworthy and is docked near Plymouth Rock in Providence, Rhode Island. Since its acquisition by the current owners on July 4th, 1984, the house has undergone significant expansion while preserving key elements of its original charm. Notably, some of the mahogany used in the construction of the Mayflower II has been thoughtfully incorporated into the home, creating a unique connection to its storied past. This property is not just a home but a piece of living history, offering a rare opportunity to own a residence with an extraordinary maritime legacy.

Stamp Duty Calculator:

Stamp duty calculator provided by The Property Hive is intended to provide an estimate of the stamp duty land tax payable on a residential property purchase in England or Northern Ireland. However, the calculator is provided for general information purposes only and should not be relied upon as a substitute for professional legal or tax advice. The actual amount of stamp duty payable may differ from the estimate provided by the calculator, depending on various factors such as the purchase price, the property type, and the buyer's circumstances. Property Hive does not accept any liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of, or reliance upon, the stamp duty calculator. It is recommended that you seek independent legal and tax advice before making any property purchase decisions.

Anti money laundering checks

Regulations require that we undertake identity and AML checks, and secure information on the circumstances of your purchase in line with our obligations to verify your identity and complete Customer Due diligence as part of you agreeing any offer with our client. These are dictated by regulation and enforced by trading standards. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks are carried out correctly and for ongoing monitoring, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or made an offer on a property you wish to buy that is provisionally agreeable to our client.

We have looked to provide benefits alongside undertaking these checks to ensure this is not an additional cost to you. These include complementary Lifetime Legal membership for 3 months, and where you use Chancellors Conveyancing services we have also arranged for this cost to include the AML/ Customer due diligence cost your solicitor would normally charge you for their regulated required checks. The cost of these checks is £80 inc VAT, which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee is paid in advance, directly to Lifetime Legal and is non-refundable.
