Character cottage with planning-permitted building plot and panoramic countryside views.
Elevated position with far-reaching Severn Vale countryside views
Set high on Hunger Hill, this extended four-bedroom cottage combines original character with practical family living and rare development potential. The bright, refitted kitchen/dining room and separate utility suit everyday life and entertaining, while two reception rooms — one with a wood-burning stove — provide flexible living areas that take full advantage of the elevated countryside outlook.
A significant part of the plot is included with full planning permission for a separate detached three-bedroom house (Planning Ref: S.23/1604/FUL), making this a strong prospect for multi-generational use, an investor looking to add value, or a family needing extra accommodation. The large grounds and garden offer space for outdoor living and possible garage or further landscaping work.
Practical features include gas central heating, double glazing (installed post-2002) and a modern family bathroom. The house dates from before 1900 and sits on granite or whinstone walls with no known insulation — buyers should factor potential insulation and energy-efficiency improvements into budgets. Council tax levels are above average and the immediate neighbourhood records above-average crime, which should be considered alongside the property's tranquil elevated position and excellent local amenities.
In short: a well-presented, characterful home in a highly regarded Hunger Hill location with a valuable planning-permitted building plot. It offers flexible living now and clear potential to create additional value, but requires attention to older-wall insulation and local security considerations.
