This property presents a compelling renovation and investment opportunity on a generous quarter-acre lot, currently featuring a bungalow and garage. With an existing planning permission in place, there is potential to develop two semi-detached homes or a single detached residence, each designed with contemporary aesthetics that harmonize with the local architectural style.
The approved plans allow for the construction of two 2.5-storey semi-detached houses, each offering approximately 2,240 square feet of living space (or 2,002 square feet excluding the integral garage). The layout includes thoughtful details such as pitched gable ends and inviting rear balconies, enhancing both functionality and visual appeal.
Set back from Kingshill Way, the property is accessed via a long private driveway and is bordered by mature trees that provide a sense of privacy. Each proposed home will feature rear gardens measuring around 37.7 feet in depth, perfect for outdoor living or gardening.
Designed with energy efficiency in mind, the future properties will incorporate solar panels, air source heat pumps, and energy-efficient lighting throughout. Each unit is planned to offer three parking spaces, including a garage.
Located in Berkhamsted—a historic market town nestled amidst the scenic Chilterns—this site benefits from proximity to various amenities such as shops, sports facilities, and educational institutions. For commuters, the nearby A41 bypass ensures convenient access to both the M1 and M25 motorways, while the mainline train station offers swift connections to London Euston. This combination of location advantages makes this property not only a great development project but also an attractive investment in an area with strong demand for housing.
