Summary - 8 WEST SHEPTON SHEPTON MALLET BA4 5EB
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free two-bed cottage with south-facing garden and parking allocation.
Chain free mid-terrace period cottage in West Shepton
A compact period cottage in the heart of West Shepton, this chain-free mid-terrace offers character features and easy access to local shops and transport. The sitting/dining room centres on a brick-arch fireplace with an inset wood burner — a cosy focal point for evenings in. The layout includes two main bedrooms plus a useful attic room, giving flexible space for a bedroom, home office or storage.
The property benefits from a south-facing enclosed rear garden with terraced levels and natural stone edging — small but private and ready for low-maintenance planting or a seating area. Modern touches include an updated bathroom and double glazing, while the kitchen/breakfast room provides a practical footprint with plumbing for appliances and direct garden access.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the building is a pre-1900 sandstone/limestone terrace with no confirmed wall insulation, glazing fitted before 2002, and the heating description in the paperwork is inconsistent (electric storage heaters listed, but a gas-fired system is also mentioned). Prospective purchasers should verify the actual heating system and consider insulation improvements. Parking is off-street via allocated spaces created under the Summerleaze Park planning consent (documentation available on request). Council Tax Band B and no flood risk add to the low-running-cost appeal.
This cottage will suit first-time buyers or couples seeking a characterful, centrally located home with straightforward renovation potential. It’s an opportunity to add value through insulation and cosmetic updating while enjoying immediate occupation and a private south-facing garden.
