The house is full of charm and character and a good fit for us in many ways. Great space and ticks a lot of our boxes, albeit not all.
But the next door neighbour (detached) and probably 30m away is a huge hoarder and known in the town for it. Not just his house and car but you can literally see every inch of garden is full on Google satellite and his gates are bulging open with rubbish behind. Satellite shows a clear narrow path from the house to the gates. It appears to only be in his garden at the moment, not going onto others property.
No idea if there are rats or any other associated issues. The hoarder is a nice man and probably spend around 60, so could have decades left in that property.
The house we're interested in hasn't been on the market since the 80s so I assume there aren't big social issues with him as he's lived there a long time too.
Would you move there? I'm worried about fire risks, rats and just generally the potential aggro.
