This rather large (1500 sq ft) bungalow occupies a circa ½ acre plot in a central location in the popular woodland village of West Hill. Ideally situated within an easy walk of the village amenities, the bungalow offers great scope for further extension and modernisation, but also benefits from full planning permission (Ref: 22/1606/FUL) for demolition and replacement. The present owners have undertaken a full programme of planning works, which include technical and build drawings which are available on request. The proposed dwelling would extend to circa 2500 sq ft and would sit favourably on the higher side of the south facing plot, allowing maximum exposure to the sun throughout the day. There is of course scope to alter these plans to accommodate specific needs of a potential buyer.
The present accommodation is very well proportioned and has been connected to mains gas and drainage by the present owners. It could comfortably accommodate a family, with a little gentle modernisation, who do not wish to undertake the extensive works.
This is a very rare opportunity for an impressive self-build in an idyllic setting. Must be viewed.
