An attractive Victorian mid-terrace, this two-double-bedroom home blends period character with a contemporary kitchen extension. Original features — including fireplaces, cornicing, paneling and exposed floorboards — give the living spaces warmth and charm, while the glass-roofed kitchen and French doors create a bright, sociable hub that opens onto a south-facing courtyard and small lawn.
Practical benefits include two off-street parking spaces to the front, gas central heating, double glazing (fitted post-2002) and a manageable plot that suits buyers wanting low-exterior maintenance. The layout is traditional and straightforward: living and dining rooms downstairs, two good-sized bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom upstairs. At about 1,044 sq ft, the house feels larger than many town-centre terraced homes.
Buyers should note material facts: the property sits in a very deprived area with a very high local crime rate, and the original solid-brick walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation. The EPC is grade D. The plot is small, and while the interior is well presented, there remains potential (and cost) if further insulation, structural upgrades or sympathetic modernisation are required.
This home will suit first-time buyers or couples who value period character, a bright open kitchen for entertaining, and the rare advantage of two private parking spaces close to Taunton town centre. Readily habitable with tasteful finishes, it also offers scope for energy and layout improvements for someone looking to add long-term value.
