Description

This impressive five-bedroom semi-detached home, set within a desirable cul-de-sac in Chard, presents a remarkable opportunity for renovation and investment. Steeped in period character, the property spans three spacious levels, offering generous living areas perfect for adapting to modern family needs. The main floor includes three versatile reception rooms: a formal living room with an inviting fireplace, a dining room featuring an elegant bay window, and a breakfast room with dual aspects that creates a warm atmosphere for morning coffee. A fitted kitchen equipped with a walk-in larder enhances functionality but would greatly benefit from contemporary updating. The first floor is home to three substantial double bedrooms, with the main bedroom providing ample space for additional furnishings. A bathroom and cloakroom cater to upstairs needs. The top floor houses two more bedrooms that could serve as guest accommodations or dedicated office spaces. Externally, the mature rear garden offers considerable privacy and potential for enhancement, while a garage provides secure parking or additional storage options. The property also has the advantage of off-street parking via the driveway. With nearby reputable schools, transport links, and amenities, this residence not only boasts charm but also extensive scope for reconfiguration or modernization to suit personal tastes and requirements. Additionally, there are pre-planning approvals in place for dividing the current garden to develop three further dwellings—a compelling prospect for any investor looking to maximize their return on investment.
