Kitchen needs refurbishment; damaged wall and dated cabinetry

Area has higher crime and local deprivation — consider resale/rental impact
Part of larger title; new title to be created during conveyancing
Move straight in or add value — this one-bedroom end-of-terrace is offered freehold and chain-free, occupying a generously sized plot with an allocated off-street parking space. The split-level layout places the bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor with the lounge/diner and kitchen above, creating a light, separate living area. Double glazing and a modern gas boiler with radiators are already in place.
The property suits a first-time buyer or investor looking for an affordable entry into Chard. The accommodation is practical: a compact kitchen and a living/dining room provide daily comfort, while the large plot offers scope for garden landscaping or extension subject to checks. Service charges are modest at £10.57pcm and council tax is very low, helping keep running costs down.
There are some clear issues to note. The kitchen requires refurbishment — visible wear, dated units and a damaged wall — and the property is sold as seen, so buyers should budget for cosmetic or minor structural works. The wider area records higher crime rates and local socio-economic indicators show deprivation; these factors may affect resale or rental demand. The property forms part of a larger title and a new title will be created during conveyancing — your solicitor should review this closely.
Overall, this home represents an inexpensive, low-running-cost opportunity with immediate occupation possible. It’s best for buyers prepared to carry out light refurbishment and to accept local area constraints in exchange for an affordable, chain-free purchase on a large plot with parking.
