A spacious three-storey period terrace in central Glastonbury offering 1,345 sq ft of flexible accommodation and clear scope for uplift. The house retains characterful Tudor-style elevations and a semi open-plan ground floor flowing to an enclosed rear garden. The top floor is a large loft-style room with glimpses of the Tor and potential to be reconfigured into additional bedrooms or an en suite master.
The property has been an ex-rental and now requires basic modernisation throughout: cosmetic updating, services checks and likely kitchen and bathroom improvements. There is scope to extend the rear to create a larger kitchen/dining space and to replan the top floor; conversions to an upper maisonette and garden flat or a 4/5 bedroom HMO have been achieved in similar nearby properties, subject to consents.
Sold freehold at live online auction with an extended eight-week completion period. Buyers should note an auction buyer’s premium and complete legal pack review before bidding. This home will suit investors or purchasers looking for a project in a town-centre location with strong refurbishment and rental potential, but it is not ready for immediate occupation without updating.
Practical positives include good mobile and broadband coverage, affordable council tax banding, and vacant possession on completion. The area is town-centre with convenient amenities and schools nearby; purchasers should also consider local high crime statistics and the constrained local market dynamics when assessing long-term plans.
