All rooms do require some level of work, especially in regards to the carpets and painting, with rooms such as the kitchen and bathrooms requiring some more substantial work. All that said, the property is habitable as it is, and offers an opportunity unlike many we have marketed over the last 10 years. 

OUTSIDE: Parking space is a very short walk from the front door, and can be seen from the kitchen window.  Additional parking is available in the overflow car park, no more than a 2 minute walk. The large deck is a huge bonus, and larger than any others in the row across the two levels of decking. Again, there has been some recent work to this deck but in the near future more work will be required as the wood is over 20 years of age. Composite decking would be the recommendation as and when time comes to replace the decking. Access to Somerford Lagoon directly from this deck is yet another factor that makes this property so attractive.
