House & Multiple Building Plot
Guide Price £600,000
Midsomer Norton
Summary
We are marketing a five-bedroom house with substantial land to the rear in a sought-after village location close to Bristol and Bath. Options may be considered.
The site comprises a substantial plot to the rear of a five-bedroom family home. The house is in need of renovation but it is mortgageable and functional if you wish to live in it while self-building on the plot. The house was recently recently valued at £500,000 by a local estate agent. There is a great deal of potential to add value to the house.
Both neighbouring properties have recently been developed. A developer recently built seven small homes on a similar sized adjoining plot to the north. We consider that, without demolishing the existing house, the plot to the rear would be ideal for two mid-sized semi-detached homes and that is what we have based our appraisal on. Developers may consider that a more ambitious scheme is more profitable. Self-builders may wish to consider a more substantial single dwelling.
The plot does not currently have planning consent of any kind.
