Stone Cottage is a substantial five-bedroom Victorian semi-detached house in the centre of Milverton, offered chain-free and sold via secure online auction. The property retains period character, tall ceilings and sash-style fenestration and sits on a large plot with an enclosed rear garden—rare for village centre locations.
The house requires a full refurbishment throughout: modern mechanicals, redecoration, and likely structural and thermal upgrades (walls assumed to be uninsulated sandstone/limestone). Accommodation includes two spacious reception rooms across multiple floors and a single bathroom, so the layout suits a growing family or an investor planning a multi-room rental or HMO conversion (subject to consents).
Key selling points are the scale of the property (approximately 2,268 sq ft), generous garden, village location close to amenities and good primary schools, and no onward chain. Material drawbacks are the need for complete modernisation, council tax at Band E (above average), auction sale process, and likely costs to bring walls and services up to current standards.
This is a clear project for someone seeking a character home to restore, or a developer/investor able to manage a comprehensive renovation. With excellent mobile signal, mains gas heating and very low local crime, the property offers strong long-term potential once upgraded.
