A homeowner has won £50,000 after a surveyor failed to spot Japanese knotweed in the property's garden.
Paul Ryb was attracted to the two-storey, brown-brick property in Highgate, north London, largely due to its big, corner-plot garden.
Splashing out £1.3million on the home, the former investment banker, who has impaired eyesight, had enlisted the help of a surveyor to ensure the property was safe.
