About this property

A Rare Opportunity in the Heart of Hest Bank – A Hidden Gem with Limitless Potential and Expansive Plot.

Situated along one of Hest Bank’s most desirable roads, this property presents a truly unique opportunity for those with vision and imagination. Set back from the road and approached via a long, single-track driveway—wide enough to accommodate development—this charming bungalow enjoys absolute privacy amidst its wraparound gardens and mature orchard, all quietly nestled in a serene and secluded plot.

From the moment you arrive, there’s a sense of discovery. The house itself, crowned with an eye-catching terracotta slate roof, evokes the timeless charm of a storybook cottage. Inside, the simplicity of the interior allows delightful period features to shine through: exposed timber beams, original stained glass, and a rustic multi-fuel stove—the current sole heat source, though gas is available to the property.

The accommodation comprises three bedrooms, a generous living room with garden views, a dining room and a pleasant kitchen-diner, bathroom, and a conservatory that, with some attention, could once again provide a beautiful spot to enjoy the surrounding greenery. The property also includes a useful annex area and entrance porch with a second WC/bathroom and large storage space, while a single garage completes the layout.

The gardens offer potential in their own right: lawns wrap around the house, giving way to an orchard - offering further options. Whether you envision a full-scale redevelopment (subject to relevant planning), a thoughtful renovation of the existing home, or even a tranquil retreat with scope for further outbuildings (again subject to planning), the potential here is extraordinary.

Rarely does such a private, versatile plot in this coveted location become available. Viewing is essential to fully grasp the scope and magic of this opportunity. Let your imagination roam—you may just find the future you’ve been looking for.

*Please note that an AML fee is chargeable to the buyer once an offer is accepted to cover the cost of carrying out the required identity and anti-money laundering checks. Once these checks have been completed, the fee cannot be refunded, even if the property purchase does not go ahead.
