Located within the settlement of Barnston, Cartref has wonderful potential to be extended and re-configured to produce a substantial dwelling (stpp). From the bungalow there is excellent access to the A120, M11, Dunmow, Braintree, Stansted airport and the City of Chelmsford.

Bedroom two features a circular bay window to the front, window to side and a double built in wardrobe. The bathroom has been converted into a shower room with shower cubicle, low level WC, handwash basin and a linen cupboard.

Dining room with fireplace and sliding patio doors to a glazed conservatory to the side of the building and a further doorway to the kitchen. The kitchen features countertops, drawers and cupboards, a touch operated ceramic hob, double oven and window to rear, a part glazed replacement door to the side. The sitting room features a patio door providing access to rear garden and entertaining patio and there is also a window to the side.

Outside
The bungalow is set back from the road and screened by an established hedge. There is a concrete driveway which is partially covered by stones and leads to a double detached garage with two up and over doors, central stud work partition and side door. Built into the rear of the garage are two storage cupboards, one containing the oil fired boiler. A pathway leads to the entrance door and also provides access around the bungalow to the gardens which are primarily lawned. There are two glazed greenhouses and a timber shed. Oil tank and additional shed located to the side of the garage.

Agents note;
The property requires extensive modernisation but does provide a lot of potential for alteration and enlargement. There is also development potential, and previously an application for two dwellings sited within the plot was approved at the outline planning stage. This has now lapsed. The current owners have had very productive pre-application meeting with Uttlesford District Council with a proposal to site three new homes on the plot.
Lapsed outline planning permission 2016 Approved Uttlesford District Council, planning No. UTT/16/1494/OP. Recent pre-application meeting summary available, supporting in principle application for three units, subject to due process and planning framework.
