You never said whether you needed a mortgage. Very doubtful they would lend on this property or if they do it will not be the amount you require. They want to cover their loan if they repossess the property. No house is worth the the amount of worry and problems that this will cause.
I understand you’re very invested at this point but that is a very bad situation. I know what it feels like when house hunting but there’s always another house. This one will give you so much headache, and imagine trying to sell it on yourself one day...will be a nightmare.
RUN. EVen the most perfect house is not worth the long term implications of buyng ths property. Your Solicitor should warn you. Check out the insurance and restrictions. Knotweed is a reportable plant and the implications are not just wth the neighbour but anyone else in the area.
Yes, It's been a year - and we did run! Pulled out of the sale a week after starting this thread and moved in to our new home (no JKW in sight!) last December. Thanks everyone for the advice, super happy we didn't go for the knotweed house!

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
