Description

Bear Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this fantastic opportunity. Two dwellings sit on approximately 0.71+ acres on Bournebridge Lane, Romford. The properties are not within greenbelt and are conveniently close to Romford High Street and local amenities. Both are unoverlooked, with three access points and views across open fields.

The main dwelling, Twin Oaks (left), requires finishing and is ideally suited for cash buyers. The bungalow, Glenmia (right), is a two-bedroom detached property in need of some TLC. Both offer excellent potential, including possible small-scale development (subject to planning).

There will be an open day. There is no onward chain, and offers are invited in the region of £1,050,000. Please contact us to arrange a viewing. Prospective buyers are advised to seek guidance from planners or architects regarding the development potential. The site benefits from wide frontage, and there are delightful walking routes nearby.
