Massive potential. This refurbished, two bedroom spacious detached bungalow of 74 square metres has a plot of approximately one third of an acre, an in and out driveway, and lends itself to a number of potential uses, subject to planning permission.

Wrens Nest Bungalow has a secluded, out of the way, location on the outskirts of the village of Highley. Following a fire in the living room and smoke damage throughout, the property was completely refurbished from top to bottom in 2019 to include new ceilings, walls, floor boards, shower room, kitchen furniture, mains gas central heating boiler and radiators, re-wiring, double glazing, and redecoration. The spacious property now offers the opportunity for a purchaser to put their own mark on it but with the added potential of the third of an acre plot possibly lending itself to further development or a business use, subject to planning permission.

Privately situated behind a mature hedge the property has two gates to the lane for an in and out driveway or one of the gates could be used as a separate access to the land or potential business opportunity to the rear. The property is entered via a centrally located front door that opens to an entrance hall that runs through the centre of the bungalow and provides access to each of the rooms. The living room is dual aspect with windows to front and side, with an open fireplace, the large breakfast dining kitchen at the rear, overlooks the land to the rear and has direct access to the extensive patio via an inset covered porch entrance, with garden cloakroom and w.c. The principal bedroom is set at the far end of the entrance hall and is dual aspect with windows overlooking both front and rear gardens, and has one further bedroom. The fact that the shower room and cloakroom with w.c. are separate adds to the versatility of the accommodation. The rear of the property faces west and takes full advantage of afternoon sun, privacy is ensured by mature tree lined borders secured with fencing.

Whilst Netherton Lane is on the outskirts of the village of Highley it is also minutes from the village centre which is well catered for amenities including a doctors surgery, a pharmacy, Co Op and Costcutter stores, hairdressers, a petrol station, fast food outlets, and Highley Community Primary School. The tourist attraction Severn Valley Railway has two stations, Highley Station and the Country Park Halt and the Engine House Visitor and Education Centre and a steam train museum. There are countryside walks to be found along the banks of the River Severn and through the Severn Valley Country Park on both the western and eastern banks of the River Severn.

The cost of these checks is £45 (incl. VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Lifetime Legal, and is non-refundable. We do not receive any of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal for its role in the provision of these checks.
