Seven bedrooms across three floors, spacious reception rooms
Inver House is an imposing Edwardian detached home set on the favoured slopes of North Hill, offering generous living space across three floors and wide south-facing views over Minehead and the surrounding countryside. Period features such as high ceilings, feature fireplaces, bay windows and a first-floor wraparound balcony give the house strong character and plenty of natural light. The mature gardens of over a quarter of an acre and a substantial driveway with single garage provide private outdoor space and generous parking for family life.
The property currently requires general modernisation throughout. There is just one main bathroom for seven bedrooms and some elements — such as assumed wall insulation and internal fixtures — will benefit from updating. The house has double glazing installed post-2002 and gas central heating, but older construction (sandstone/limestone walls, built 1900–1929) means buyers should allow for potential refurbishment costs and possible improvements to thermal performance.
This home will appeal to families wanting space, period character and views, or buyers seeking a renovation project with scope to reconfigure rooms. Practical positives include excellent broadband and mobile coverage, low flood risk, and easy access to local schools and the amenities of Minehead. Notable negatives to factor in are the single bathroom, the need for modernisation, and a relatively high council tax band (Band G). Viewing is recommended for those seeking a spacious Edwardian house with large gardens and long-term improvement potential.
