Description

A Truly Unique Property with 3 Acres of Land and Exceptional Development Potential

Set within approximately 3 acres of land and nestled amongst mature woodland, the property enjoys an exceptional sense of privacy and seclusion, with the extensive grounds helping to preserve its far-reaching views. Adding further appeal, the property is held across four separate titles, offering excellent flexibility and potential for future development, subject to planning.

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial detached residence set within approximately 3 acres of private grounds and woodland, offered alongside four separate land titles, creating an exciting proposition for developers, investors and those seeking a long-term land investment.

Whether you're looking to explore future development potential (subject to the necessary planning consents), create a multi-generational estate, or secure a sizeable landholding with significant upside, opportunities of this nature rarely come to market.

At the heart of the site sits a beautifully refurbished four-bedroom detached home (approx 2500sqft), finished to a high standard and ready for immediate occupation. This presents the unique advantage of being able to live comfortably on-site whilst pursuing any future development plans, making it an ideal purchase for self-builders, developers or investors looking to phase a project over time.

The main residence offers generous and versatile accommodation including four well-proportioned bedrooms, contemporary bathroom and separate, downstairs WC and spacious living areas designed for modern family life. In addition, not one, but two separate annexe rooms provides further flexibility, whether utilised as a home office, gym, guest accommodation, studio or ancillary living space.

A significant addition to the estate is the substantial detached commercial barn, which already benefits from consent for commercial use, presenting an excellent opportunity for a wide range of business, storage or workshop purposes.

For purchasers seeking to maximise the site's potential, the barn also offers exciting scope for conversion into one or more residential dwellings, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions. With its generous footprint and separate position within the grounds, the building lends itself to a variety of future schemes, making it particularly attractive to developers, investors or those looking to create additional accommodation alongside the main residence.

Surrounded by mature woodland, the property enjoys complete privacy and an enviable setting, with the extensive grounds preserving far-reaching views and offering endless possibilities for landscaping, leisure or future enhancement.

With no onward chain, this is a truly unique acquisition that combines immediate lifestyle appeal with outstanding development potential. Properties offering this combination of a turnkey family home, extensive grounds and multiple land titles are exceptionally rare, making this an exciting opportunity for investors, developers and visionary purchasers alike.
