Description

This vacant detached former farmhouse presents a unique opportunity for renovation and potential conversion on an expansive plot of approximately 5 acres. The property features four rooms across two levels, complemented by a single-storey extension and additional outbuildings that could be repurposed or developed further, subject to the necessary planning permissions. Located in a residential area near essential amenities and transport links, this site is poised for transformation. While it currently consists of three reception rooms, a kitchen, and multiple bathrooms, the interior will require significant attention to restore its functionality or to realize new living arrangements. The previous planning permission for separate dwelling use has lapsed but could potentially be revived, offering options for investment or personal development.
