Possible boundary issue with neighbour?

Thanks people for the input.

Think I will leave it alone when the time comes to sell.

So long as it's not being rented out

It'd make me think "ooh, look, I could do something like that"

Assuming there is no window to the side that looks directly into your garden, it looks fine enough to me.

No, its just my fence.

Is it leaning on your fence? Looks too close for comfort to me but I don't think it would put me off

I think the chap used the upright posts as fixing points, not leaning on but overhanging slightly.

I can see a similar setup with the neighbours to the left. As a buyer I would not see it as an issue.

I wouldn't see that as an issue no, not unless your potential buyer is a real nitpicker!

If you don't complain, it's not a dispute. If you have a dispute, then you would have to declare it when selling. So if I were you I would just leave it.


Strictly-speaking the neighbour has taken the P, but given it's at the back of the garden and a tiny overhang, and most importantly not draining onto your side, then it's one of those things that might not be worth bothering about. It could put off a buyer, but that's more likely because it's ugly and overbearing than it is a hot boundary dispute.


At the time I would have addressed it, but now it's not the time.

Is that garage at the bottom yours? Does its gutter, perchance, overhang next door on the left? .......

As a buyer I would be more worried about what it was being used for/ Maybe a DIY mechanic or joiner etc using it as a weekend workshop would be a big turn off for me.
