I can't really find anything else in Charlbury suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

Should you need a home loan that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.

In the event that it has you must advise them of the new contact details and ensure the loan are issued to the new lawyers.
