Description

This property presents a unique chance to acquire a spacious village home along with a consented residential development plot, situated in a quiet and desirable location in Prestbury. Positioned on Blacksmiths Lane, this property enjoys serene views over the village allotments towards Battledown and the picturesque Cotswold escarpment, all while being conveniently close to Prestbury's amenities including pubs, shops, and local facilities. Originally built in the 1840s and significantly extended in the 1980s, this residence offers around 2,720 sq ft of versatile accommodation spread across two floors. With four reception rooms and five double bedrooms—two of which are en-suite—the layout is perfect for larger families or those requiring flexible living spaces for work or guests. A unique conservatory on the first floor allows for enjoyable views over the expansive garden. While some updating is needed to bring this substantial home back to its full potential, it provides an outstanding opportunity for buyers to reimagine and enhance it according to their personal taste. The property sits on approximately one-third of an acre and features a large rear garden with existing planning permission for a detached four-bedroom house complete with a double garage. This planned dwelling will have its own access via a private driveway beside the main house, making it an attractive prospect for self-builders or investors seeking multi-generational living arrangements. Moreover, ample driveway parking alongside the double garage ensures convenient access for both dwellings. Opportunities that combine such a significant family home with an approved development project are exceedingly rare. This property is available with no onward chain, providing buyers with not just a spacious residence but also significant potential for future investment value.
