Description

DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY – Prior approval has been granted for change of use from commercial to residential, either one detached or two attached dwellings, set in 2.11 acres.

This freehold workshop/barn offers an exciting development opportunity, with prior approval granted for conversion into either two single-storey attached dwellings of approximately 1,450 sq ft each or a single detached dwelling of approximately 2,400 sq ft with an integral double garage. The property occupies a total site of approximately 2.11 acres, comprising a development plot of 0.38 acre with private gardens and additional paddock land of 1.73 acres.

The proposed dwellings are mirror images of each other, each offering single-floor accommodation including: a lobby, reception hallway, fitted cloakroom, store, open plan lounge, dining and fitted kitchen, utility room, three bedrooms (master with en suite shower room), and a family bathroom. Provision is made for off-road parking at the front of both properties.

The development site benefits from its rural setting while remaining accessible via local roads. The paddock land to the rear provides further scope for landscaping or ancillary use, enhancing the appeal of this substantial plot.

Upton Warren, Bromsgrove, offers a tranquil rural setting with a semi-rural atmosphere, while still being conveniently close to local amenities. This picturesque village is renowned for its scenic surroundings, including nearby lakes, countryside walks, and natural reserves, providing an ideal backdrop for outdoor living. Excellent road links via the A38 ensure easy access to Bromsgrove town centre and convenient commuting to Birmingham and Worcester. Combining peaceful village life with practical accessibility, Upton Warren is perfect for families or anyone seeking a countryside retreat within easy reach of urban centres.

Title:
- The property is currently held in three freehold titles. Two are registered, while a small unregistered section purchased over twenty years ago is in the process of being formally claimed via adverse possession.

This opportunity offers developers or investors a chance to create high-quality rural homes in a sought-after Worcestershire location, with prior approval in place for immediate commencement.
