Set on an elevated plot on the outskirts of Radstock, this traditional four-bedroom stone cottage offers far-reaching countryside views and substantial renovation potential. The layout combines generous living space — a 21' sitting room, separate dining room and utility areas — with two garages and driveway parking, making it well-suited for a growing family or a buyer seeking a project with scope to add value.
The property requires comprehensive updating throughout, presenting a blank canvas to personalise finishes and reconfigure spaces. There is scope for further development subject to planning; buyers should verify permissions. Practical drawbacks include a single family bathroom for four bedrooms, slow broadband speeds, and a local area recorded as having higher crime levels than average.
Externally the plot is a strong asset: decent-sized front and multi-tiered rear gardens, patio, greenhouses and outbuildings provide ample outdoor space but will need ongoing maintenance and landscaping. Note the strip of land at the bottom of the front garden grants parking rights to the adjoining property, which affects exclusive use of that portion of the plot.
Sold freehold and chain-free, this semi-detached period cottage is appropriate for buyers comfortable with renovation — families wanting space and character, or investors/developers looking for a value-add project in a semi-rural setting.
