EPC Rating:
This is a rare chance to secure a property in one of the Forest of Dean’s most peaceful and scenic corners, with enormous scope for transformation and long term value. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the setting and potential on offer.
Set in one of the Forest of Dean’s most sought after rural enclaves, this nontraditional build bungalow offers a rare opportunity to create a dream home in a truly idyllic setting. Nestled on Harrow Hill, this unique property enjoys a prime location adjacent to Forestry Commission land, with immediate access to woodland walks, breathtaking open countryside views, and a sun kissed, south-facing aspect.
Occupying a generous and versatile plot, the property boasts immense potential. Whether you're looking to renovate the existing structure or explore possibilities such as redeveloping into a substantial family home, or even constructing a pair of semidetached dwellings (subject to planning permission), this is a canvas full of promise.
The bungalow itself is in need of comprehensive internal renovation, but offers well-proportioned accommodation throughout, including:
• Three double bedrooms
• A spacious sitting room with large windows framing far-reaching countryside views
• A kitchen/dining room with excellent natural light
• A separate utility room
• Two garages, providing ample storage or workshop potential
Its enviable position offers privacy and tranquillity, yet remains conveniently accessible to local amenities and transport links.
Location:
Set in the picturesque village of Harrow Hill in Gloucestershire, this unique property enjoys a privileged position on the edge of ancient woodland, offering both seclusion and direct access to some of the most scenic parts of the Forest of Dean. The surrounding woodlands, steeped in history and rich in biodiversity, provide a haven for walkers, birdwatchers, outdoor pursuits and nature lovers alike.
Harrow Hill itself is a historic settlement, originally established as part of the wider Forest of Dean coal mining and iron working region. Though now a peaceful residential area, traces of its industrious past can still be found in local landmarks and architecture, offering a fascinating backdrop for those interested in local heritage. The village green and stone built cottages reflect a strong sense of community and character, while nearby villages such as Drybrook and Mitcheldean offer everyday amenities, schools, and pubs with a friendly, rural charm.
Despite its tranquil setting, Harrow Hill offers good connectivity to larger towns such as Ross-on-Wye, Monmouth, and Gloucester, making it a perfect blend of countryside living with practical access to commuter routes and services. Whether you're drawn to the area's natural beauty, its deep historical roots, or its peaceful atmosphere, Harrow Hill offers a truly special place to call home.
