Fire-ravaged detached house with spectacular panoramic views up for sale with big price tag
A detached house which was gutted by fire three years ago has gone on the market with a £525,000 price tag.
Brelades in Claverley, between Wolverhampton and Bridgnorth, will need a full renovation after it was completely destroyed by fire in June 2020.
But Steventon Land & Estate Agents in Wolverhampton has marketed the building as an "excellent development opportunity".
The property, which was left as a concrete structure following the blaze, is situated within a three-acre plot which has woodland and garden areas.
It boasts panoramic views over picturesque countryside and the site has also been granted planning permission for the reconstruction of the existing house to the same design.
Other features of the site include a detached triple car garage block and a long driveway.
A message on the estate agents website, describing the property, reads: "A unique and rare opportunity to acquire this fantastic development opportunity.
"Destroyed by fire in June 2020, the property known as ‘Brelades’ was a most interesting detached property of individual design, centrally placed within a splendid three (approx) acre plot with both extensive woodland and garden areas.

Nobody was inside the two-storey home at Long Common in Claverley, on the B4176 between Wolverhampton and Bridgnorth, when the fire started on June 10, 2020.
Seven crews from Staffordshire Fire & Rescue went to battle the blaze after receiving a call at about 2.30am.
Around 25 firefighters tackled the blaze from outside the property using two hose reel jets and one main jet.
