Offered to the market as a complete blank canvas, this property represents a fantastic investment for developers, investors, or ambitious buyers looking to create a bespoke family home.
A standout feature of the plot is the exceptionally large driveway running alongside the property, offering extensive off-road parking alongside tremendous scope for a substantial extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

The true potential of the property lies in its impressive plot.
To the side, the property boasts an unusually broad and deep driveway, offering endless possibilities—whether you choose to preserve the vast parking space or expand the footprint of the home with a multi-story side extension.
To the rear sits a private garden area ready to be landscaped into an inviting outdoor living space.
Situated on Great Acre in Whelley, the property enjoys proximity to excellent local primary and secondary schools, everyday amenities, and the popular Haigh Woodland Park.
