Large plot, major renovation — development potential STPP in a well-connected Coleshill location.
Freehold detached period cottage on approx. 0.13–0.14 acre plot
A rare freehold opportunity in Coleshill: a detached early-20th-century cottage on a large 0.13–0.14 acre plot requiring full renovation or possible redevelopment subject to planning. The existing three-bedroom house (circa 73–90 sq m / 965 sq ft reported) has exposed fabric, broken windows, overgrown/ivy-covered external walls and partial roof deterioration — a clear project for someone prepared to invest time and money. Mains water and electricity are believed present but untested; the property currently has no central heating system and an EPC rating of G (valid to July 2027).
The plot sits just off Coventry Road with quick access to the M42/M6 and local Coleshill services, making it suitable for builders, developers or buyers seeking a substantial renovation close to good transport links. The site has scope to extend STPP; planning enquiries will be essential if you intend to enlarge or replace the existing footprint. Vacant possession will be given on completion; the property is offered for sale by online auction (bids/auction dates listed in the auction pack).
Buyers should budget for significant works: full structural and roof repairs, new heating, likely insulation upgrades for solid brick walls, window replacements and internal rewiring/plumbing testing. Title is registered (WK414665); purchasers must undertake their own due diligence on rights of way and services. Auction fees, buyer’s premium and upfront deposit payments apply — review the auction pack carefully before bidding.
This is a straightforward, high-potential fixer: good plot size and location offset by clear and material renovation needs. It will suit developers, refurbishment specialists or an owner-occupier wanting to create a bespoke home, provided they accept the cost and practical demands of a near-complete restoration.
