Rare Project Cottage On Desirable Haughurst Hill With Huge Potential!
If you know the area, you'll already know just how special Haughurst Hill is.
It's one of those roads that people often aspire to live on. A peaceful country lane lined with individual homes, surrounded by countryside and home to some of the area's most impressive properties. That's exactly what makes Buxton Cottage such a rare opportunity.
Having been in the same ownership since 1978, this charming two bedroom cottage is now looking for someone to write its next chapter. In need of modernisation throughout. If you're searching for a home where your investment is rewarded by the location, this could be exactly what you've been waiting for.
Inside, the accommodation is full of character and offers a great starting point. The kitchen sits at the front of the property, leading through to a cosy living room with an open fireplace at its heart. To the rear, a conservatory provides additional living space and enjoys views over the generous rear garden. A ground floor shower room completes the downstairs, while upstairs you'll find two bedrooms, including a spacious principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes.
Step outside and the potential only continues. The rear garden is an excellent size and enjoys a south easterly aspect, offering plenty of sunshine throughout the day. Whether you dream of creating a beautiful landscaped garden, growing your own vegetables or extending the property in years to come, there's certainly plenty of scope to explore, subject to the usual planning permissions.
One thing buyers will notice is that the property doesn't currently have off road parking. However, having sought advice from a local builder, there is potential to create a driveway at the front of the property with the addition of retaining walls. Estimated costs are in the region of £20,000 depending on the specification, although buyers should naturally carry out their own investigations.
For me though, this home has always been about one thing... The address.
Surrounded by substantially larger and more valuable homes, this is an opportunity to create something truly special in a location that's difficult to buy into.
Projects on roads like Haughurst Hill don't come to the market very often. If you've got the vision to see beyond what's here today, the reward could be a home you'll be proud of for many years to come.
