Three-Bedroom Detached Home | Approx. 4,303 sq ft Plot | No Onward Chain

If you've been scrolling past the usual “lovely three-bedroom family home” listings and waiting for something with a little more potential, this could be the one.

Set on a generous plot of approximately 399.74 sq m (4,303 sq ft), this detached three-bedroom home is in need of complete renovation from top to bottom.

But here's where things get interesting.

The potential is huge.
The existing property provides three bedrooms, a generous lounge/diner, kitchen, bathroom, WC and additional ground-floor space. However, the real attraction is the size and versatility of the plot.

There appears to be excellent potential to significantly enlarge the existing property, with the possibility of exploring a double-storey extension to both the side and rear, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents.

And for those with bigger ambitions, there may even be an opportunity to investigate building an additional property alongside the existing home.

In other words, this isn't simply a house that needs decorating.

This is a blank canvas with serious potential.

Whether you're a developer, builder, investor, ambitious renovator, or simply someone who looks at a tired house and thinks, “I can see what this could become, ” this one deserves your attention.

We’ve done our homework, but we aren’t fortune tellers. We haven’t poked the boiler, flicked the switches, or tested every light bulb.
