A classic Victorian terrace in Rowbarton, offered with no onward chain and strong renovation potential. The house retains original bay windows, high ceilings and feature fireplaces, providing scope to reinstate period charm while reconfiguring for modern living. The property totals about 862 sq ft across multiple storeys with a small enclosed courtyard garden.
This is a clear project for buyers who can budget for considerable modernisation. Single glazing, dated heating, visible damp and mould in places, and general wear mean ongoing work is required: full kitchen, bathroom upgrade and likely replacement of some services. The layout of three bedrooms and reception rooms gives flexibility for family or rental use once renovated.
Sold via a Modern Auction method: there is an undisclosed reserve price and buyers must pay a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of purchase price, minimum £6,600 inc. VAT) plus a pack fee (up to £349 inc. VAT). Completion target is 56 days; purchasers should carry out full due diligence and confirm financing before bidding.
For buyers attracted to period character and central Taunton access, this terrace presents value at the asking price of £140,000 but carries clear renovation costs. The house sits near schools, shops and the mainline station, making it suitable for families or investors prepared to refurbish.
