I own a semi-detached Georgian property in Henbury. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and The Royal Bank of Scotland. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold with the exact same address. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You need to read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Henbury and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also check the situation with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the purchase.

We are in the middle of buying a house in Henbury. Conveyancing solicitor has phoned to say the title is "Leasehold". Should this adversely affect the salability of the property?

Henbury conveyancing does not normally involve leasehold houses. The main consideration here is the remaining lease term and the ground rent. If there are hundred of years years remaining with a peppercorn rent, it's almost the same as freehold, so it shouldn't impact the saleability too much.

On the flip side, if it's, say, Sixty years it will have a material effect on the saleability, and probably wouldn't be mortgageable. The remaining lease term and ground rent will be specified in the lease which should be made available to your conveyancing practitioner.
