Wanswell, Berkeley

Standout Features

Property Description A fantastic opportunity to acquire this generous detached bungalow set on a substantial plot in the sought-after hamlet of Wanswell, just outside the historic castle town of Berkeley.
Armorel Bungalow requires full refurbishment throughout, making it an ideal project for those looking to create a spacious single-storey home, or for developers and investors seeking a site with future potential. The property is positioned on a substantial plot with ample outdoor space, a private driveway, and open surroundings.
Significantly, a planning application has been submitted to demolish the existing bungalow and garage and replace them with two detached two-storey dwellings under reference S.25/0193/OUT (Stroud District Council). This opens the door to a new development opportunity, subject to planning approval.
Armorel Bungalow is a pre-fabricated property, originally constructed prior to the 1980s. It was bricked up externally during the 1980s, however, we are not in receipt of the PRC (Pre-Cast Reinforced Concrete) Certificate. As such, the property may not be mortgageable. Buyers are strongly advised to seek guidance from their mortgage provider and solicitor before proceeding.
