Description

An increasingly rare residential development opportunity comprising two existing single-storey commercial units occupying a site of approximately 0.3 acres, situated at the end of a quiet no-through road in the heart of Pewsey.

The site benefits from full planning permission for the demolition of the existing commercial buildings and the construction of two substantial three-bedroom detached dormer bungalows, each extending to approximately 1,500 sq ft of accommodation. Full planning details can be viewed on the Wiltshire Council planning portal under reference PL/2024/08990.

The approved scheme has been thoughtfully designed to create two attractive and highly efficient homes, blending traditional village styling with modern family living. The proposed elevations feature dormer windows, generous glazing and an open porch entrance, providing strong kerb appeal while remaining sympathetic to the surrounding area.

The ground floor accommodation of each dwelling is arranged around a central entrance hall and comprises a spacious dual-aspect lounge, a large open-plan kitchen/breakfast room, utility room and cloakroom. A generous principal bedroom suite is also located on the ground floor and benefits from a dressing area/wardrobe and private en-suite shower room, offering flexibility for downsizers or multi-generational living.

The first floor provides two further double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a central landing, together with useful eaves storage areas.

The Wharf occupies a tucked-away position at the end of a no-through road, providing a sense of privacy while remaining conveniently located for the excellent amenities, railway station and thriving community that Pewsey has to offer.

The combination of a consented scheme, desirable village location and well-designed accommodation creates an excellent opportunity for developers, investors or self-build purchasers seeking a straightforward project in one of Wiltshire's most sought-after villages.
