Description

Offered at auction, this former smallholding on the edge of Bomere Heath includes a two-bedroom house, a range of farm and outbuildings, and approximately 6.5 acres divided into five grassland enclosures. The property is described as dilapidated and is presented as an opportunity for restoration and redevelopment, subject to the relevant consents. The two-storey brick house has a tiled roof and timber-framed, single-glazed windows. Its stated accommodation comprises a reception room, dining room, kitchen, pantry and cloakroom on the ground floor, with two bedrooms, a bathroom and attic storage above. A lean-to garage is also included. The house and buildings sit within the land, with access from Broomhall Lane and Green Lane. Bomere Heath's village services include a primary school, village hall, convenience store, public house and takeaway. Shrewsbury and the main A-road network are stated to be around three miles away. The property is offered with vacant possession and is subject to a 30% overage clause for 30 years in the event of a change of use from agricultural or equestrian use. The land is being sold by public auction; buyers should review the legal pack and make their own enquiries about services, rights, boundaries and planning matters.

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £210,000, the guide is about 28.7% below the local average per square foot, making the acquisition price a clear attraction. Brook House offers a distinctive rural project: a two-bedroom former smallholding with around 6.5 acres, several outbuildings and access from two lanes, close to village services and Shrewsbury. The interiors, visible kitchen area and surrounding buildings provide scope for a substantial restoration, while the land could suit grazing, equestrian or amenity use, subject to any necessary consents.

The numbers are less comfortable after the works: combining the guide with the £90,000–£180,000 renovation range gives £300,000–£390,000 before fees, and the engine’s £345,000 midpoint comparison is stretched against the local benchmark for this floor area. That benchmark is not a post-renovation value forecast. As this is an auction guide, bidding can take the hammer above it, so the eventual purchase price may not stay this cheap.

Key opportunities

  • Restore and rework the two-bedroom house, with scope to shape its character and internal finishes rather than simply make cosmetic updates.
  • Make use of the approximately 6.5 acres across five grassland enclosures for grazing, equestrian or amenity purposes, subject to planning where required.
  • Explore the practical use of the range of outbuildings and the two-lane access as part of a smallholding setup.

Key risks

  • Damaged ceilings and finishes, worn floors, weathered buildings and dense overgrowth make this a substantial restoration and clearance programme, not a cosmetic refresh; the £90,000–£180,000 works range leaves significant budget and programme uncertainty.
  • At the £135,000 renovation midpoint, guide price plus works is £345,000, above the £294,587 local-average benchmark for this floor area; that comparison is not a post-works value forecast.
  • The visible ceiling damage and weathered exterior, together with vegetation limiting inspection, warrant close checks of the building fabric and roof condition.
