This detached three-bedroom bungalow is situated on a spacious plot of approximately 0.25 acres, located just a short distance from the expansive open forest adjacent to Woodlands Road near Ashurst. While the property currently requires comprehensive modernization, it presents significant renovation and investment opportunities for those looking to create their ideal home or capitalize on the potential for redevelopment.
The existing layout includes a living room, a separate dining room, a kitchen, three bedrooms, and a family bathroom. An attached garage and workshop area provide additional utility, along with a covered carport and ample driveway space for parking. The garden features mature shrubs and trees that not only enhance privacy but also offer potential landscaping opportunities.
What makes this property particularly compelling is the submitted planning application proposing the demolition of the existing building to make way for an architect-designed home exceeding 2,500 square feet. The proposed design emphasizes modern living with an open-concept layout that includes spacious reception areas, a generous kitchen/dining/snug space flowing into a formal sitting room, all benefiting from large windows that promote natural light and views of the outdoor space. A dedicated utility room and study complete the primary level, while the upper floor accommodates four sizable bedrooms.
The plans highlight an impressive principal suite with an ensuite bathroom and Juliet balcony overlooking the gardens, alongside another ensuite guest bedroom and two additional double bedrooms serviced by a family bathroom. Given that planning permission is anticipated by late Autumn 2025, this property offers an excellent timeframe for investors or homeowners seeking to flip or build their dream residence.
The location also boasts low flood risk and access to ultrafast broadband services with speeds up to 1,000 Mbps—ideal for modern living needs. With no onward chain involved in the sale, this property represents a blank canvas ready for transformation in a desirable setting while being subject to Tree Preservation Orders (TPO).
