South-facing paved courtyard garden with stream directly beyond

Set on a quiet lane in picturesque Nunney, this 18th-century mid-terrace cottage offers authentic period character and a compact, well-laid-out plan. Two double bedrooms, exposed beams in the main bedroom and a cosy sitting/dining room give the home immediate charm and comfortable village living. The rear courtyard garden faces south and steps down to a stream, creating a peaceful spot and clear potential to enhance outdoor space.
Practical updates already completed include a damp-proofing treatment (20-year guarantee from 2022), a replaced oil tank and a satisfactory electrical report from 2021. The property benefits from double glazing and oil-fired central heating via a boiler and radiators, helping with warmth despite the cottage’s age.
Buyers should note the cottage is small (about 592 sq ft) with low ceilings in parts, very limited outdoor space and is mid-terrace with stone walls likely uninsulated. The home requires some modernization to meet contemporary living standards; cosmetic and thermal-improvement work would add value. There is a medium flood risk because of the stream to the rear — this is a material consideration for insurance and future works.
This chain-free cottage will suit buyers seeking a characterful starter home or a rural retreat near Frome, who value setting and history over outright space. With sensible investment the property offers genuine upside: improved insulation, kitchen and bathroom updating, and landscaping the courtyard could substantially increase comfort and resale appeal.
