Grove House, Shobdon : Detached Character Home with Planning Permission for a 4-Bedroom Dormer Bungalow

A rare opportunity to acquire Grove House, a detached village residence occupying a generous plot in the heart of Shobdon and benefiting from full planning permission for the construction of a separate four-bedroom dormer bungalow within the grounds. Combining the charm and practicality of an established family home with a valuable development opportunity, the property offers broad appeal to owner occupiers, developers and investors alike. Planning permission has been granted for the new dwelling together with associated curtilage, access improvements, and ancillary infrastructure.

The property is approached via extensive off-road parking and enjoys an attractive front lawn, with driveway access to either side creating both convenience and excellent accessibility. To the rear, substantial gardens provide a wonderful sense of space and privacy whilst also forming the setting for the approved development plot.

Internally, Grove House presents well-balanced living space arranged over two floors. The principal lounge is centred around a log-burning stove and flows openly into the contemporary kitchen, creating an inviting environment well suited to modern family life and entertaining. A thoughtfully designed office nook has been incorporated beneath the staircase, providing a practical work-from-home solution without compromising the principal living area.

The kitchen is fitted in a modern style and is complemented by an adjoining utility room housing the gas-fired boiler together with plumbing for domestic appliances. A door from the utility room leads directly into the rear garden.

A second reception room offers valuable flexibility and may serve as a formal sitting room, dining room, family room, or home office according to individual requirements.

To the first floor are two generous double bedrooms and a large single bedroom. The principal bedroom benefits from a recessed wardrobe area, whilst the remaining bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom fitted with an electric shower over the bath. Triple-glazed windows, gas central heating, and a boiler installed within recent years further enhance the property's comfort and efficiency.

Beyond its merits as a family home, Grove House offers an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a property with planning permission already secured for a separate four-bedroom dormer bungalow within the rear grounds. Approved under Herefordshire Council planning application P213848/F, the development incorporates its own curtilage together with associated access and infrastructure works, creating a highly attractive proposition for a variety of purchasers. The consent presents the opportunity to create an additional dwelling for extended family, generate future resale value or pursue a standalone development project, all whilst retaining the character and appeal of the existing residence. Detailed plans and supporting documents are available for inspection and purchasers should satisfy themselves regarding implementation of the consent and any associated planning conditions.
