Description

This unique detached bungalow presents a remarkable opportunity for renovation and development, located on an unusually expansive plot in the desirable village of Kelbrook. Previously, planning permission was granted in 2012 for an additional bungalow and garage on the large side garden; while this permission has lapsed, a new application is likely to be favorably considered given the demand in this area. The property offers generous living space with stunning rural views that are sure to attract a variety of buyers. Inside, you will find features such as PVC double glazing, gas central heating, and solar panels, providing a solid foundation to upgrade further. The spacious entrance hall leads into a large lounge with a stone fireplace and multi-fuel stove, offering direct access to the rear garden through double French doors. The kitchen is another highlight, designed for family gatherings with ample dining space, equipped with cream cabinetry and solid wood worktops. A conservatory adds extra charm but also requires attention as it includes a multi-fuel stove without formal approvals. There are three well-sized bedrooms, each boasting pleasant views, and one features built-in wardrobes. The bathroom is fully tiled with contemporary fittings including a four-piece suite. Notably, the loft has been converted into additional rooms without securing necessary planning permissions or building regulation approvals—presenting both potential value for remodelling and compliance challenges to address. Outside, there are two garages (one suited for bikes) along with off-road parking and gardens that could benefit from landscaping enhancements to optimize outdoor space usage.
