Assuming you could manage to make contact with the owner could you maybe offer to tidy up the garden yourself? A weekend of clearing/burning might do enough to not put off your potential buyers?

Unfortunately I think it's way too far gone for me to be able to do anything. Some of the trees are huge now and I think you'd need specialist tools / contractors and a fair bit of manpower, never mind multiple skips to dispose of it. The garden is completely consumed by brambles and trees.

The stacks of cardboard, inaccessible garden etc all lead to a potenial fire risk. Utilise this in your key points.

Raise the concern for the vulnerable reclusive adult

Raise concerns for your property due to the state of disrepair & neglect by the council to maintain their asset attached.

Highlight the potential fire risk & tell them you will be asking the local community-based fire safety officer to get involved as well as the local MP

Demand swift action. Give them 10 days to provide a written response with some form of action plan.

Be concise and don't ramble.

I'll write them another letter this week covering all these points and the other items people have helpfully mentioned.

Thank you
