Set on an exceptionally large plot of approximately 0.96 acres in sought-after Long Crendon, this detached chalet bungalow offers clear scope for refurbishment or further development. The property currently provides versatile accommodation including three ground-floor bedrooms, a kitchen/breakfast room and a striking galleried sitting room on the first floor measuring about 25 ft by 19 ft with Velux windows. The house is chain free and tucked away with mature gardens and off-street parking plus a detached double garage.
The house requires renovation throughout and will suit a buyer seeking a project, developer, or investor able to unlock value through modernisation or potential reconfiguration. Notable positives are the very large plot, detached double garage, private driveway and the attractive village setting within an affluent area. Practical details: freehold tenure, mains gas boiler and radiators, very low flood risk, and approximately 2,047 sq ft overall.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the property needs renovation, contains only one bathroom for three bedrooms, and may need energy-efficiency improvements (partial cavity wall insulation presumed). Council tax is described as expensive. For those prioritising location, scope and plot size, this home presents a rare opportunity to create substantial added value in a peaceful small-town setting with good nearby schools and local amenities.
