Description

This substantial detached period residence presents a unique opportunity for investment and renovation. Boasting five bedrooms and four reception rooms, the property offers significant potential for creating annex space (subject to planning) within its generous plot of just under half an acre in a desirable semi-rural setting at the base of the Quantock Hills. The ground floor features a welcoming porch and entrance hall leading to a kitchen, dining room, and various sitting areas, including one equipped with a wood burner. Additionally, it includes two further reception rooms, a utility/WC, pantry, and a shower room set up some stairs. The first floor consists of five spacious double bedrooms alongside a family bathroom. The external space is equally impressive, with gardens wrapping around the side and rear of the property. This area primarily consists of lawned sections interspersed with patios, decking zones, mature trees, shrubs, fruit trees, an old piggery structure, and woodland at the back. A garage located at the end of a block offers light and power connections. While on-street parking is readily available, there is potential to enhance parking capacity by removing a low stone wall beside the house (subject to necessary planning permissions). Positioned along a tranquil no-through road in Holford village—known for its scenic walks and outdoor pursuits—the property is conveniently located within close proximity to amenities such as local pubs and restaurants. The nearby village of Nether Stowey (3 miles away) offers more extensive facilities while Taunton (14 miles) provides access to national rail links for journeys into London (approximately 1 hour 40 minutes). This property represents an attractive prospect for those looking to invest in renovation within this vibrant community.
