A spacious early 20th-century detached house set on a significantly larger-than-average plot in the sought-after village of Rhos. The property offers three double bedrooms, three reception rooms and a single modern shower room, plus a detached garage, workshop and a retail-style outbuilding currently fitted out as a hair salon. Positioned south-facing to the rear, the garden is level to a large lawn and patio and provides clear scope for extension or redevelopment (subject to planning approval).
This home will particularly appeal to developers, buyers seeking a live/work opportunity, or investors. The site already benefits from separate commercial accommodation with shop frontage, mains gas heating, recent double glazing and off-street parking. It is being sold freehold and chain-free, making delivery of refurbishment or redevelopment programmes simpler.
Buyers should note this is a property of its era and will need sympathetic updating and maintenance. The original granite/whinstone walls are assumed uninsulated, and there are several older outbuildings and features that will require attention. Any enlargement or new-build on the plot is subject to planning permission — while the plot offers real potential, approval is not guaranteed.
Other practical considerations: the property has only one shower room for three double bedrooms, the internal layout and some finishes are dated in places, and the surrounding area scores high on local deprivation indices. These factors are reflected in the price and mean the house suits purchasers prepared to invest in refurbishment or redevelopment to realise its full potential.
