Description

FOR SALE BY MODERN METHOD OF AUCTION – FEES APPLY NO ONWARD CHAIN
SUBSTANTIAL THREE-BEDROOM DETACHED HOME ON GENEROUS DOUBLE PLOT WITH DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL (STPP)

Kinetic Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this three-bedroom detached property, positioned on a generous double plot in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Cherry Willingham. Offered to the market via the Modern Method of Auction, this property represents a rare opportunity for developers, investors, or owner-occupiers seeking a sizeable project with genuine scope for refurbishment, extension, or potential redevelopment (subject to the necessary planning permissions).

The property requires modernisation throughout and is very much a blank canvas. Importantly, the plot has previously benefitted from outline planning permission for the development of two separate dwellings, which has since lapsed. While this consent is no longer active, it provides strong historical context for the development potential of the site. Prospective purchasers are strongly advised to undertake their own due diligence and consult West Lindsey District Council, ideally via a pre-application enquiry, prior to committing to purchase. The property is offered with no onward chain.

What Kinetic Estate Agents Love About This Opportunity

Nina Sharpe (Sales Director): “The plot size here is exceptional for such a central village location — opportunities like this are increasingly rare.”

Matt Wilson (Auction Consultant): “The previous outline consent for two dwellings really highlights the potential this site offers, subject to re-approval.”

Jo Foster (Sales Manager): “Cherry Willingham is always in demand — this is a project with genuine long-term upside.”

Step Inside

The existing accommodation provides flexible living space across two floors and offers an excellent base for reconfiguration or enhancement. The property is entered via a front porch (11’7” x 4’6”), with windows to the front and side aspects, leading into the main hallway. The entrance hall provides access to the principal ground floor rooms and features a radiator and a glazed door opening directly onto the rear garden.

The kitchen (14’11” x 11’5”) is fitted with a range of wall and base units with work surfaces over, stainless steel sink and drainer, tiled splashbacks, and space for appliances. Two windows to the side aspects provide good natural light, though the room is in need of full modernisation. The dining room (14’9” x 9’10”) sits centrally within the home, featuring the staircase to the first floor, a radiator, and a glazed door opening out to the garden — offering potential to become a hub of the home following renovation. The lounge (14’11” x 7’11”) benefits from windows to the side and rear aspects, providing a pleasant outlook across the gardens. A ground floor bedroom (Bedroom Three – 10’7” x 9’6”) offers flexible accommodation, ideal for multi-generational living, home office use, or potential annex-style arrangements.

Completing the ground floor is a shower room, fitted with a walk-in shower cubicle, wash hand basin, WC, tiled splashbacks, radiator, and a window to the front aspect.To the first floor, the landing leads to three generously sized double bedrooms and a bathroom. Bedroom One (14’11” max x 9’11”) enjoys a rear aspect, radiator, and useful over-stairs storage. Bedroom Two (14’11” x 8’5”) benefits from windows to both the front and side aspects, fitted wardrobe, and radiator. The first floor bathroom comprises a panelled bath, wash hand basin, WC, radiator, airing cupboard, loft access, and a window to the side aspect.

The property occupies a substantial double plot, wrapping around the home to the rear and both sides. The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with patio areas, mature shrubs, and established fruit trees — offering both privacy and scope. To the front, a driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles and access to a single garage. The overall plot size and configuration present excellent potential for extension, redevelopment, or reconfiguration (subject to planning).
