I just won my offer on a 1930's 2 bed flat above a shop before realising the roof terrace has mobile masts placed out. ( please view image)
They are just above my 3 windows facing the street. The 2 bedrooms and the living room.
I've googled the net and some research says it's more likely to effect you if you are further away than really close to the mast. A lot of research suggest there is no harm at all.
I'm guessing this could be why the tenants are not useing the roof terrace
( current owner has lived there for 17 years) but they are also African, Caribbean families with small children so not your regular roof garden hipsters.
The roof is not really advertised but accessible but my main concern is if it's safe to live below the masts? And the resale of the property. I've been looking for over a year and half and couple of bids have fallen through so really looking to move. I would try to go back and see if the emmit any noise when window is open though it was when I viewed and I couldn't hear any. I also went on the large roof and couldn't even see them till I looked at street view. They are not very tall.
I'm just sitting in Starbucks in soho and amazed over how good the wifi is realised there are two masts exactly the same type on a building few doors down!
What would you do? Considering health and resale and the really difficult London market for a first time buyer.
Thank you!
