A rare opportunity to acquire a detached bungalow set within approximately 3-3.5 acres (sts), offering significant scope for refurbishment, extension and further development, subject to the necessary planning consents. Combining residential accommodation with extensive land and potential business infrastructure, the property presents an exciting prospect for owner-occupiers, entrepreneurs, smallholders or those seeking a live-work lifestyle.

The site has previously operated as a successful family nursery business for many years and offers considerable potential for continued horticultural use, diversification or other business ventures, again with necessary consents. Improvements include three recently erected state-of-the-art greenhouses supplied with power and water from a private borehole, together with two large powered storage sheds and a further wooden outbuilding.

The bungalow, understood to be of brick construction beneath a tiled roof, requires modernisation but provides well-proportioned accommodation comprising an entrance hall, a light and spacious double aspect sitting room with dining area, kitchen with integral storage cupboard, utility room with access to the garden, two bedrooms, bathroom and separate WC. An integral garage and polycarbonate car port provide additional storage and parking. Further benefits include UPVC double glazing, solar panels with battery storage and newly installed electric heaters.
