Description
A rare opportunity to purchase a charming bungalow, located in grounds of approximately 1.8 Acres, within the highly sought-after village of West Hill.
This property offers exceptional potential for redevelopment. The existing bungalow is now in need of some modernisation, but could be potentially developed into a wonderful family home.
As well as a substantial garden, there is an additional paddock, which may be considered for development, subject to the necessary planning consent.
Access is via a private lane from West Hill Road. This access is used by around 5 other dwellings. The driveway and plot are relatively level.
Please note. No pre-application advice has been sought from East Devon Council, although the agents understand from conversations with a number of architects that this site offers excellent potential for several new substantial detached homes, subject to the necessary consents. It is also understood that a combined sewer runs around the North, West and South boundaries of the site. (Buyers should make their own enquiries to confirm this.)
The guide price is set at a nominal level and offers are invited by informal tender for consideration. Viewings strictly by appointment only.
