The Orchard,Colliers End,WARE,SG11 1EP
SG11 1EP
4 bed 1 bath Detached
Secluded 5‑acre plot with large barn — refurbishment or redevelopment opportunity.
4 bedrooms in main dwelling, approx. 2,499 sq ft overall
Secluded 5‑acre plot with mature trees and high privacy
Very large detached barn — significant ancillary/development potential
Property requires full modernisation/renovation throughout
Several outbuildings dilapidated; some repair or removal needed
Single bathroom only — limited wet‑room provision for a 4‑bed house
Freehold, chain free; excellent mobile signal but very slow broadband
Situated on village edge near good schools and low‑crime area
Set within a secluded 5‑acre plot on the edge of Colliers End, this detached 4‑bedroom family house and large adjacent barn offer substantial scope for refurbishment, extension or conversion (subject to consents). The property occupies an elevated, tree‑lined site with mature planting, good privacy and open countryside views — a rare rural opportunity close to village amenities and reputable schools.
The main house is presented largely as an older bungalow/period dwelling with modest internal room sizes and traditional features. The accommodation requires updating and modernisation throughout; there is a single bathroom and several ancillary outbuildings that are dilapidated and in need of repair. The large barn provides considerable storage or development potential but would need planning and structural consideration before any change of use.
Practical considerations: the plot is chain‑free and freehold, with excellent mobile signal and low local crime. Broadband speeds are very slow — important for those who need reliable home internet. The property is best suited to buyers prepared to undertake renovation or a sympathetic redevelopment project who value privacy and land rather than a move‑in‑ready home.
This is a strong proposition for an experienced family seeking space and seclusion, a developer looking for a barn conversion opportunity, or an investor with planning appetite. Viewings are by appointment; factual due diligence on services, boundaries and planning potential is recommended before offer.
