A substantial three-bedroom family house set on about 0.92 acres on the edge of Sarnau, offered as a comprehensive renovation project with an adjoining circa 4,000 sq ft agricultural building. The barn has full planning permission (approved 8 Feb 2024) to convert into two residential units and for installation of a sewage treatment plant, creating a genuine development upside alongside the main dwelling.
The existing house provides around 1,260 sq ft across two floors with multiple reception rooms, a conservatory and three bedrooms. The property sits semi-elevated with peaceful countryside views and generous front and rear lawns plus a wide driveway and garage. Services include mains electricity, private well water and private drainage; there is no flood risk recorded.
Buyers should be clear this is a renovation-heavy purchase: the house requires comprehensive refurbishment, heating is via room heaters (dual fuel: mineral and wood), walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, glazing dates are unknown, and broadband is very slow. The site will suit a developer or buyer prepared to invest in full works to unlock the barn conversions and upgrade the main dwelling.
This opportunity is attractive to those seeking a rural development plot with immediate planning consent and the chance to create two additional dwellings while converting the existing property into a refreshed country home. The location is quiet with low crime, but the local area is classified as remote/very deprived, so buyers should factor connectivity and local service considerations into budgets and plans.
