Description
An exceptional opportunity to acquire a 3.85-acre site with enormous potential, located in a sought-after semi-rural setting. The existing farmhouse requires extensive refurbishment or complete demolition, providing a blank canvas to build a bespoke family home, subject to planning (STP).
The generous plot offers scope for multiple dwellings (STP), making it an attractive proposition for developers seeking to maximise value, or for a family looking to design and build their dream residence with ample land for gardens, leisure or equestrian use.
Additionally, there is STP potential for mixed-use development, ideal for someone wishing to run a substantial business from home while establishing a high-quality family property on the same site. This flexibility unlocks a rare chance to blend residential and commercial aspirations in one location.
A compelling prospect for those with vision and resources to transform this site into a standout residential or mixed-use scheme.
Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale and possibilities on offer.
Important note: Due to the current condition of the dwelling, standard residential mortgages are unlikely to be available. Prospective purchasers will typically require developer finance, bridging loans, or cash funds.
