The Common, Longparish, Andover

Full Details

Description:

Rivermist is a three bedroom detached bungalow. The property was built in the 1970s and is a Marley Worcester standard bungalow with Tyrolean which has rendered elevations under a tiled roof.

The property is in need of renovation, however the accommodation currently has an entrance hall, kitchen/diner with fitted units, sitting room with fireplace, conservatory, three bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Rivermist does offer potential for redevelopment or renovation and extension subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.

Planning:

Rivermist is situated outside the Conservation Area and inside the Settlement Boundary for Longparish.

Pre-Application advice was sought for the proposed demolition of the three bed bungalow, to be replaced with a four bedroom two storey house on a similar footprint, with parking for 3 cars, bike and bin storage located in the garden. The conclusion from Test Valley Borough Council was that the principle of a dwelling in this location would be acceptable. (Ref: 24/02399/PREAPN)
