An attractive refurbishment and conversion opportunity situated within the sought-after Norfolk village of West Dereham.

The Old School House comprises a former school building dating from the 1950s, which replaced the original Victorian village school, and was subsequently granted consent for residential conversion. Full planning permission has been secured for the conversion of the existing dwelling into two substantial three-bedroom semi-detached bungalows, providing an excellent opportunity for developers, investors and owner-occupiers seeking a conversion project.

The current owner has already undertaken part of the conversion works, offering purchasers the opportunity to complete the development and realise the site's full value.

The front bungalow was completed some years ago and will need refurbishing. This unit is currently let on an Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST), with possession available subject to two months' notice.
