About this property
Key Features

Detached cottage in need of replacement
Description
An opportunity to acquire a detached cottage with rural views to the front and rear.
The property requires comprehensive repair/renovation, but may also lend itself to replacement with a new dwelling, subject to gaining the necessary planning consent. The property therefore offers a fantastic project for buyers and investors alike.
The existing 2 storey house is of brick construction with external rendering beneath a pitched tiled roof, with a single storey extension to the side.
The house has a gross internal floor area of approximately 57m² (609ft²) and it sits within a generous plot of 1.138acres.
The property is set back from the road and has a prefabricated garage to the left hand side. To the rear is an area that has previously been used to grow crops but is of now very overgrown with vegetation and requires clearing.
We understand that the property has been uninhabited for around 5 years. There is evidence of significant structural defects within the building, and due to the very poor condition of the house, internal viewings are not permitted.
Tenure
Freehold with vacant possession
