Key Features

Summary

GUIDE PRICE £250,000 – A rare opportunity to acquire a three-bedroom detached property requiring comprehensive modernisation, occupying an exceptional and unusually substantial plot offering considerable scope for extension and potential further development, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents. The property requires a comprehensive scheme of modernisation throughout and offers significant scope for a purchaser looking to renovate, substantially extend or explore the wider development potential of the site.

The existing accommodation includes a spacious entrance hall, a generous 29' lounge/dining room, separate kitchen, rear ancillary accommodation, three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property also benefits from a substantial attached garage. What really sets this property apart is the size and configuration of the plot. With a particularly wide frontage and extensive land extending to the side and rear, there is clear potential to dramatically increase the size of the existing dwelling.

The wider site may also offer scope for further residential development, including the possibility of additional dwelling(s), subject entirely to obtaining the necessary planning permissions and all other relevant consents. The property therefore represents an excellent opportunity for developers, builders and ambitious owner-occupiers seeking a substantial renovation project with genuine long-term potential.

Viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate both the scale of the plot and the opportunity on offer.

GARAGE

OUTSIDE
The property occupies an exceptionally generous and highly unusual plot, with a wide frontage to Waingroves Road and extensive land extending alongside and to the rear of the existing dwelling. To the front, the property benefits from a substantial area of garden/land adjoining the house and garage, creating a particularly wide frontage compared with neighbouring properties. The plot then extends a considerable distance to the rear, incorporating mature gardens and substantial further land beyond the immediate garden area. The overall size and configuration of the site provide significant scope for a purchaser wishing to substantially enlarge the existing dwelling and may also offer potential for further residential development, subject entirely to obtaining all necessary planning permissions, access arrangements and other relevant consents.

CONDITION
Prospective purchasers should be aware that the property requires a comprehensive programme of modernisation and repair throughout.

DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL
Given the exceptional size and configuration of the site, the property may be of particular interest to builders, developers and purchasers looking to create a significantly larger individual family home.

There appears to be considerable scope for substantial side and/or rear extension of the existing dwelling, while the wider plot may also offer potential for additional residential development.

No planning permission is currently being offered with the property and no representation is made that consent would be granted. Interested parties should make their own enquiries with the relevant local planning authority and obtain independent professional planning advice before relying upon any development potential.
