A three-bedroom period end-terrace house in Timsbury, set on a site of approximately 0.11 acres and offered with vacant possession.

Full planning permission has been granted by Bath & North East Somerset Council for an additional three-bedroom dwelling adjoining the existing house. The consent is subject to conditions and requires development to commence within three years of 10 June 2026. The site is within the Timsbury Conservation Area and the village Housing Development Boundary. The listing also notes that a larger single home could be explored, subject to obtaining any necessary consents. The property is freehold, and the planning documents are available from the selling agents or the Council’s planning portal.

Grade CPotential opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £395,000, this is priced well below the local average at £337/sqf versus £437/sqf, giving buyers an opportunity to acquire a characterful stone house at a comparatively low entry price. The 0.11-acre site and full planning permission for an adjoining three-bedroom dwelling add a distinctive project angle; check the consent’s conditions and implementation requirements before relying on it.
Key opportunities
- Rework the large ground-floor living space while restoring the stone character and original features.
- Replace the dated kitchen and renew worn flooring and marked finishes to give the existing house a cohesive update.
- Explore the permitted adjoining three-bedroom dwelling, subject to checking the consent and its conditions.
Key risks
- Worn floors and extensive wall and ceiling deterioration across several rooms, plus a heavily overgrown garden with loose stone or rubble, make the £45,000–£85,000 works range a substantial budget and programme commitment rather than a cosmetic refresh.
