A Victorian three-bedroom mid-terrace offering spacious living arranged over three floors, minutes from Chard town centre. The ground-floor living/dining room is generous and bright, with period features including a fireplace and sash window. The property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and an enclosed, low-maintenance rear garden.
This house will suit buyers looking for a practical, affordable home or an investor seeking a straightforward refurbishment project. The layout includes a kitchen with appliance space, a bathroom on the first floor and a top-floor principal bedroom with exposed beams and wooden flooring — note there is restricted head height on this floor.
Important practical points: the building is solid-brick Victorian with no assumed wall insulation, and some exterior and interior updating is required. The plot is very small and the area records higher-than-average crime and relative deprivation; purchasers should consider security and local amenity factors.
Value drivers are clear — freehold tenure, good room proportions, central location, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — making this a realistic entry-price purchase or an investment with rental potential. Buyers are advised to commission their own surveys on services, insulation and structural condition before committing.
