Self-Build Behind A Pub With Access Through The Car Park
Project overview
A ground-up self-build on land bought behind the pub where the clients worked as live-in/managing landlords.
The challenge
The house would sit behind the pub, with the only access via the pub car park, and the clients’ role/income was linked to employment by the pub rather than ownership of it.
The solution
A lender was found willing to accept the location and access arrangement.
The outcome
The clients completed a difficult self-build placement where location and access would usually be major lender concerns.
