Binstead Village

Nestled in the charming Binstead Village, this detached house offers a unique investment opportunity for those with a keen eye for potential. With 4 reception rooms, 4 bedrooms, and 3 bathrooms, this property provides ample space for comfortable living. That said, the house is currently uninhabitable having flooded well into the first floor.

One of the standout features of this property is the garage & parking spaces available for up to 4 vehicles, ensuring convenience for both residents and guests. The property's layout presents a canvas for creativity, with the potential to renovate the existing structure or embark on a new design that caters to potential risk of future flooding.

Situated by a brook that has been identified as the source of flooding, there is an exciting opportunity to address this issue and mitigate future risks. Cash buyers with a vision for innovation and a willingness to explore solutions to prevent or improve flooding are invited to consider this investment.

Gardens - The house sits in a chine-like plot with a brook flowing through it at its lowest point surrounded by sloping banks. The plot sits down below road level largely hidden from its surroundings. This makes for an idyllic spot but is also one of the contributing factors to the flooding history of the property. Established trees sit along three of the plot boundary making for a natural feeling environment. A patio sits off the kitchen/diner to the south side of the house and a raised deck protrudes on the west side overlooking the brook and garden.

Flooding History Disclosure - In our opinion, the unfortunate flooding of this property will present a risk to the new owner unless mitigated, for example, by a redesigned new build or potentially altering the culvert and its entrance which runs under the main road. These, and any other options will need to be explored by any interested party. The house flooded in 2024 and 2022. Any upgrading to the culvert, alteration to the brook or demolishing of the existing house in favour of a new design will no doubt attract formal permissions and approval from the relevant governing bodies. We fervently advise investigating the potential of this site to fulfil the opportunity this plot/house will afford.
