Set on 3.27 acres with open farmland views, this detached mid‑century bungalow and range of outbuildings offer a rare redevelopment opportunity in rural Wighton. The main house is a single‑storey renovation project (no central heating) with signs of damp and structural repair needed; it could be refurbished, replaced, or extended subject to consent.
The site includes a brick-and-tiled single‑storey barn plus three timber/corrugated‑iron barns totalling approximately 3,634 sq ft. A pre‑application to the district council indicated that the brick barn is most likely to be considered for conversion; conversion of the other barns is uncertain and would carry planning risk and costs.
Practical realities are straightforward but notable: mains water and electricity are connected, drainage is private, heating currently relies on electric storage heaters, broadband is very slow and mobile signals are average inside. The property’s remoteness (around 1.5 miles from Wighton centre) delivers privacy and huge outdoor space but means limited local services and transport.
This freehold lot will suit a buyer looking for a countryside development or refurbishment project: an investor or developer seeking barn conversion potential, or an owner wanting a substantial private plot to improve over time. Be prepared for remedial works, planning uncertainty for some outbuildings, and rural service limitations.
