Spotlight - December 2024 - Exploring the potential of a pair of semi-detached properties in Henham, Essex
Recently, our surveying team conducted an inspection of two semi-detached properties in a quiet, tucked-away corner of Henham, Essex. The prospective buyers aim to transform these two separate dwellings into a single, unified home, creating an exciting opportunity for modernisation and redevelopment.
Survey insights:
Approaching the survey as a cohesive unit rather than two individual properties allowed us to evaluate the potential for integration. Both properties exhibited signs of wear and tear, with one home in notably poor condition. Despite these challenges, their prime location and adaptable layout present countless opportunities for customisation and renovation.
A surprising discovery:
During our assessment, we uncovered a unique feature - a derelict underground bunker located at the rear of the plot. Although limited access restricted a full evaluation, this intriguing structure could become a standout feature of the property. With the right vision, the bunker could be restored as a creative space or safely removed, depending on the owners’ future plans.
