Description

Description

Bruton Knowles are delighted to receive kind instructions to offer for sale by Informal Tender a superb development opportunity which benefits from full planning approval for a large dwelling. The property extends to 4.8 acres of gently sloping ancient woodland which is surrounding by fields of pasture. Historically, there was an two-bedroom dwelling of lightweight construction and in poor repair. This is accessed via a private track through the woodland from public road.

Location

The site sits in the foothills of the Radnor Forest and offers an intimate setting with stunning views overlooking the Welsh hills of Rhos Fawr and Great Creigiau. The A44 is less than a mile away, connecting mid-Wales with Herefordshire. New Radnor (1.5 miles) offers a local school, shop and church, whilst the rural towns of Kington and Presteigne are within a 15-minute drive offering secondary education, local shops and pubs and sports facilities. The City of Hereford is 23 miles away with direct rail connections to Birmingham, Cardiff and London Paddington.

Services

The property has private water via borehole and single-phase electricity. Foul drainage is via package treatment plant (PTP) to drainage field and surface water to soakaway. Roof water is to be recycled for non-potable supply. Interested parties should make their own enquiries as to the services available.

Planning

The land falls within the planning jurisdiction of Powys County Council and benefits from full planning for a single dwelling:
- 24/0370/FUL: The erection of a replacement dwelling, package treatment plant and associated works
- 23/0703/CLE: Lawful Development Certificate under Section 191 for the retention of an existing dwelling and outbuilding, and use of land for residential purposes.
The scheme refers to removal of the existing structure and a replacement 4-bedroom dwelling. The proposed dwelling is contemporary-designed and extends to 185 sq.m. (1991 sq.ft.) over two wings on the same ground level.
The accommodation is designed to maximise the spectacular views with open plan living space on the one wing and four double bedrooms (two with ensuite) on the other. They are connected by a modern central glazed link.
Externally is a large terrace overlooking far-reaching views and parking for multiple vehicles.
Planning information and drawings are included within the Data Pack prepared by the Agents.

Terms

The Freehold interest in the site is for sale via Informal Tender with a deadline of Wednesday 16 September 2026. Unconditional offers are invited. Bidders are asked to outline their proposals on the pro forma found in the Data Pack.
