Detached bungalow with outstanding development potential for renovation or redevelopment in Prime Buckingham Location

An exciting opportunity has arisen to acquire this detached bungalow situated on a generous, level plot in an established cul-de-sac. Offered with planning permission for a substantial replacement dwelling, this property represents a rare chance for buyers seeking to renovate or redevelop in one of the area’s most sought-after locations.

The existing bungalow extends to approximately 917 sq ft (85 sq m) and sits on a mature plot measuring 572 sq m (approx. 1/8th acre). The plot offers excellent frontage, a south-facing aspect and superb privacy to the rear, creating a wonderfully private setting with a level garden that provides a blank canvas for landscaping or extension. From the front elevation there are striking views across open countryside towards the iconic Stowe landscape and distant hills.

Positioned in a quiet, well-established cul-de-sac, the property benefits from a highly convenient setting within easy walking distance of the Royal Latin Grammar School, a major draw for families. Buckingham town centre with its range of amenities, schools and transport links is also close at hand, while the surrounding countryside provides beautiful walks and an enviable semi-rural feel. This is a rare combination of a ready-to-go renovation project with substantial redevelopment upside in a premium catchment area.

Full planning consent has been granted for a spacious four-bedroom, three-bathroom, two-reception room detached family home with an impressive internal floor area of approximately 186 sq m (2,002 sq ft). This represents a significant uplift in both size and specification while remaining sympathetic to the established neighbourhood. Whether you wish to undertake a sympathetic renovation of the existing bungalow or proceed with the approved new build, the potential here is outstanding.

Viewings are highly recommended to fully appreciate the plot, the views and the exciting possibilities this property offers.

Located within the catchment area for the highly regarded Royal Latin Grammar School, and close to local amenities, green spaces, and excellent transport links, the setting combines convenience with community in a well-established residential area.

Opportunities like this are extremely rare - early viewing is highly recommended.
