Description

Chester Cottage Farm presents a unique opportunity in the rural village of Wroot, situated on a generous plot of approximately 0.33 acres. This three-bedroom detached bungalow, built in the 1960s, is in need of general modernization and improvement, making it an ideal project for those looking to invest in a property with significant potential. The bungalow features a central hall, a spacious lounge with a modern decorative fireplace, a dining area, and a kitchen that includes fitted units and a gas central heating boiler. The bedrooms are well-sized, and the bathroom is equipped with essential amenities. The property benefits from outline planning permission granted in July 2024 to demolish the existing bungalow and construct three new dwellings. This opens up exciting possibilities for developers or investors looking to capitalize on the site’s potential. The surrounding gardens are substantial, and there are open fields to the rear, enhancing the overall appeal of the location. Offered at a private treaty asking price, interested parties are encouraged to contact the selling agent for further details.

Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

Chester Cottage Farm presents a medium-scale renovation opportunity in a desirable rural setting. The property features a three-bedroom detached bungalow set on a generous plot of about 0.33 acres, with a good-sized garden and outline planning permission for redevelopment into three new dwellings. While the interior shows signs of general wear and dated decor throughout, this presents a blank canvas for buyers looking to modernize and add value. The kitchen and bathroom both feature older fittings, further indicating the potential for significant improvement.

With an asking price of £350,000, the absence of a calculated £/sqf due to missing floor area means we can't directly compare this to local averages. However, the price remains attractive for the right buyer willing to undertake the necessary refurbishments. Keep in mind that the overall condition may deter some buyers, but for those looking for a project with potential, this property offers an exciting opportunity to create something special.

Key opportunities

  • Good-sized garden providing outdoor space and potential landscaping opportunities.
  • Outline planning permission for redevelopment into three detached dwellings, enhancing value.
  • Opportunity to modernize dated interiors, including the kitchen and bathroom.

Key risks

  • General condition showing wear and tear could require a significant budget for refurbishment.
  • Potential damp noted in several areas, requiring careful assessment during renovation.
