Description

This Grade II listed former vicarage in North Curry offers extensive accommodation across a principal house and a separate two-bedroom cottage, with gardens and outbuildings on a stated 1.17-acre plot. The main house has six double bedrooms, a further ground-floor reception room that could serve as a seventh bedroom, and several reception spaces. Period details include exposed beams, fireplaces, flagstone floors and traditional architectural features. The kitchen and breakfast room has fitted wooden units, an oil-fired Aga and an adjoining utility room. A conservatory, study, family room and shower room add to the ground-floor accommodation. Upstairs are six double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with exposed timbers, plus an en-suite and a family bathroom. The separate cottage, known as The Stables, has a living room, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The grounds include established gardens enclosed by stone walls, mature trees, lawns, a former tennis court and a kitchen garden. A studio, workshop, stores, garage, car port and courtyard parking are also described. The property is stated to require modernisation, offering scope to update the accommodation while taking account of its listed status. North Curry has village amenities, with Taunton and its rail and road connections approximately seven miles away.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

80out of 100
Grade AStrong opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £1,000,000, this substantial Grade II listed former vicarage is offered at about £195 per sq ft, well below the local average of £321 per sq ft—a strong opportunity to acquire a rare period property with significant scope to add value. Its beams, fireplaces and flagstone floors provide character to build on, while the separate two-bedroom cottage, outbuildings and extensive walled gardens add versatility.

The main house and cottage appear usable, with dated kitchens, bathrooms and finishes offering a light modernisation project rather than an obvious major rebuild. The grounds are a particular asset, and selective attention to the former tennis court area could further enhance them. The listed status means improvements will need a sympathetic approach, but the asking price and distinctive setting underpin the strong overall opportunity.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire a substantial period property at a notably low price per square foot versus the local average.
  • Modernise the dated finishes and kitchens while retaining the beams, fireplaces and flagstone floors.
  • Make the most of the separate two-bedroom cottage, outbuildings and established walled gardens.
