Summary - 5, WINCHESTER STREET, TAUNTON TA1 1QQ
4 bed 1 bath Terraced
Four-bed terraced fixer-upper with garden and no onward chain.
Victorian four-bedroom mid-terrace with two reception rooms
A Victorian mid-terrace offered as a renovation project with no onward chain, this four-bedroom house sits close to Taunton’s cricket ground and local amenities. The property includes two reception rooms, one bathroom and a fully enclosed south-west facing rear garden — useful for letting appeal or family use once refurbished.
The fabric is solid brick (likely uninsulated) and the interior requires updating throughout; expect a full refurbishment to modernise heating, electrics and finishes. The house benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and permit-controlled on-street parking, but the layout and single bathroom limit immediate rental yield without improvement.
Practical positives include a compact 969 sq ft footprint, freehold tenure and low council tax (Band B). Broadband and mobile services are good, and the property is only joined on one side at first-floor level, preserving a side alley for access. However, the area records very high crime levels, which will influence tenant demand and saleability unless addressed by quality renovation and security measures.
This home is best suited to investors or experienced DIY buyers seeking a value purchase in TA1 who can budget for refurbishment and ongoing safety considerations. The combination of location, garden and no chain makes it a clear renovation opportunity with potential after works.
