Challis House is a spacious Grade II listed period residence in the centre of historic Langport, offered chain free and ripe for modernisation. The house combines original character—flagstone floors, exposed beams and leaded windows—with substantial room sizes across five bedrooms and three bathrooms, making it suitable for a growing family or those seeking a characterful renovation project.
The property includes a useful converted store/studio with services connected, off-street parking for 2–3 cars, and a private walled courtyard garden with mature planting. Practical features include double glazing, mains gas central heating and a separate utility room; the layout also offers scope to reconfigure rooms to suit contemporary living.
Buyers should note material considerations: the Grade II listed status will restrict alterations and may cause additional cost and delay. The house needs renovation and updating throughout, and council tax is above average. The local area has higher-than-average crime and some deprivation indicators, though the home is a short, level walk to shops, schools and riverside walks.
This is a strong opportunity for a family seeking a centrally located historic home with sizeable accommodation and outbuilding potential, or an investor willing to manage listed-property constraints and renovation work.
