Property Overview & Planning Potential - Believed to have been built on the site of 3 cottages (1, 2 and 3 Richmond Cottages) in around 1968, the bungalow has been under the same ownership since 1985 and now offers an opportunity to update the surprisingly spacious interior or pursue the potential to redevelop the site once again.

The current owners have been in dialogue with North Yorkshire Council since May 2023, initially by way of a Pre-Planning Application Enquiry followed by Bio-Diversity Assessments and site visit by the planners in November to consider a scheme for one detached property and a terrace of three other dwellings on the site. A schedule of the written dialogue with the planners to date is available upon request.

Inside - A reception hall with original blue coloured cloakroom/wc leads off with double sliding doors into a large sitting room with fitted gas fire and further sliding doors through to a formal dining room and a double glazed conservatory with rear garden views. The dining kitchen features a range of modern base and wall storage units, freestanding appliance space, walk-in pantry and a door out into a spacious side lobby with storage cupboard and access into the attached double garage.

An inner hall with airing cupboard leads off into the sensibly separated sleeping quarters that provide a principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and larger than average en-suite shower room, 2 further double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes and the original peach coloured bathroom and separate wc.

Other internal features of note include gas fired radiator central heating, double glazing which we believe was installed in the early 1990's and drop down ladder access off the inner hall providing access up into approx. 605 sq ft of partially boarded loft space (50'6" x 12'0" at 1.5m) with a maximum apex headheight of 8'8" and the potential to convert and create additional accommodation subject to the necessary consents and regulations.

Outside - The bungalow stands within a substantial plot of around .26 of an acre which currently comprises of a lawn to 3 sides and a generous driveway providing extensive parking and access into an attached double garage with a remote control roller door.
