An Exceptional Development Opportunity on One of the Midlands’ Most Prestigious Roads.

Situated on the highly sought-after Widney Manor Road, this three-bedroom detached bungalow presents a truly rare opportunity to acquire a property of enormous potential in a prime Midlands location. Set back from the road and occupying a substantially large plot, the property combines privacy, future development potential and one of the most unique gardens you are ever likely to find.

The property is the first on the road and is not overlooked by neighbouring homes, enjoying excellent privacy from both the road and surrounding properties. Mature hedging to the front provides a strong visual and acoustic buffer, ensuring a peaceful setting despite the superb transport connectivity.

Exceptional Plot & Development Potential:

The bungalow sits on an extensive south-facing plot, ideal for garden lovers and outdoor entertaining. Uniquely, the grounds include the property’s own private island, making this a truly one-of-a-kind offering. Such a feature is exceptionally rare and provides a standout opportunity for landscaping, wildlife or a feature garden area.

The land is ripe for development, with significant scope to extend, reconfigure or redevelop (subject to planning). The property also benefits from easement rights over neighbouring properties’ development and planning applications, further enhancing long-term value and peace of mind.

There is clear potential to add substantial value through modernisation, making this an ideal purchase for owner-occupiers, developers or investors alike.
