This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Ponsford Road offers a straightforward family home with practical outdoor space and off-street parking. The layout is traditional: two reception rooms, a functional kitchen and breakfast area, three first-floor bedrooms, a bathroom plus separate WC. The detached garage and driveway provide parking for several vehicles, and a good-sized, level rear garden gives safe outdoor space for children and pets. The property is offered freehold and chain free, allowing a quicker move.
Built in the interwar period, the house retains period character—bay windows, two feature fireplaces and pebble-dash exterior—while benefiting from gas-fired central heating and double glazing. Broadband and mobile coverage are strong, supporting home working and streaming. The overall size is average (about 1,075 sq ft) with a decent plot and practical, level gardens that suit family use or future extension subject to planning.
Buyers should note clear, factual drawbacks: there is only one full bathroom plus a separate WC, meaning morning routines could be constrained for larger families. The cavity walls are as-built with no confirmed insulation, so energy-efficiency improvements may be needed. The property reflects mid-20th-century fittings in parts and will likely benefit from modernisation to suit contemporary tastes. Local crime levels are reported as high — buyers should satisfy themselves on local safety and insurance implications.
This home suits buyers seeking a family property with outdoor space and parking, purchasers wanting a character-filled property to update, or investors wanting a stable, three-bedroom rental in a popular area between Alcombe and Minehead. The chain-free status and convenient location close to shops, schools and the seafront make this a practical, accessible option.
