2 bedroom detached bungalow

NEW PRICE. EXCEPTIONAL VALUE FOR MONEY! DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL. Built in 1962 for the current owner, this attractive two bedroom detached bungalow sits centrally amidst its' own wrap-around gardens on a good size prominent corner plot at the junction of Birkholme Drive and Golborn Avenue. The property is well situated in a desirable part of Meir Heath, very close to green belt land and within easy reach of a wide selection of local shops, schools and amenities. A scheme of updating and refurbishment is now required to fully unlock the potential this property has to offer. Additionally, planning approval was granted on 19th August, 2022 to extend and remodel the property to create an appealing four bedroom home, which would still leave spacious areas for the parking of several cars, caravan etc. The bungalow has a large loft space which, if required, could be converted to provide even more habitable accommodation (subject to the necessary approval). Noteworthy, the local planning authority in conjunction with the Highways Department have recently confirmed their acceptance in principle for the forming of a new additional driveway at the rear off Golborn Avenue, subject to final design details being submitted for agreed compliance with the Highways Authorities conditions, so as to secure a well designed, safe access. The planning application and decision can be viewed on the Stafford Borough Planning Portal using reference 21/34712/HOU

The current owners have recently obtained planning permission to re-model the property both internally and externally to provide an appealing four-bedroom home by extending it forward and rearward. The proposed plans retain some of the property's original gables, with additional fully glazed feature gables incorporated to enhance the appearance of the property overall. Full use has been made of the building's present external form and fabric to offset full re-build costs. The plans show that the internal layout has been much improved to create a most appealing fore bedroom home, with the unique new rear extension providing a central hub for modern family living which would incorporate a large kitchen / dining room cum relaxation area. Alternatively, it also offers the purchaser the opportunity to fulfil their own property aspirations, subject to any necessary planning consents.
