There are a lot of houses in Stokesley on unadopted lanes. We are buying one such house. What would be the advantages and disadvantages of buying a property on a privately owned road?

Stokesley conveyancing firms are used to dealing propertieson unadopted roads. The conveyancer should investigate title to find any rights or responsibilities. It is possible that there is a management company (wholly owned by residents) that owners pay into to maintain the road.
