Sherford Road, Elburton

Offers Over £399,950 – No Onward Chain

An exciting and increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a 3/4 bedroom detached dormer bungalow set within a substantial plot, offering exceptional scope for renovation, extension, or complete transformation (subject to the necessary consents).

Coming to the open market for the very first time, this untouched gem presents a blank canvas for buyers looking to create their dream home. The property is now in need of full modernisation throughout, but the potential here is truly vast — whether you are an investor, developer, or a homeowner with vision.

The existing accommodation is flexible in layout, currently comprising multiple reception areas, a kitchen, and ground floor bedroom(s). The dormer level is currently accessed via a metal ladder staircase, providing additional rooms that offer excellent potential to be reconfigured into formal first-floor accommodation, subject to redesign and the installation of a permanent staircase (STPP).

Externally, the property sits proudly within a generous and mature plot, offering ample off-road parking, and significant potential for landscaping or further development (STPP).
