Description

Latina is offered for sale for the first time and affords an absolute wealth of opportunities to create, subject to any of the necessary consents, a wonderful home in a sought-after location between Frome and Bruton. All set in approximately 2.47 acres of gardens and paddock.

The bungalow sits in an elevated position with super views to the front over the adjoining countryside and currently needs modernisation and improvement with the scope and space to extend the existing footprint or perhaps even replace it with a new dwelling.

The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, sitting room with separate dining area, large kitchen and a utility room. There are three bedrooms, two being double rooms and the third a good single room.

Outside

A driveway to the front of the bungalow gives space for parking for several vehicles leading to a single garage with a metal up and over door.

The gardens lie to the front, side and rear of the bungalow and are currently laid to lawn with some mature shrubs and enclosed by mature hedges.

The Land

The paddock lies to the rear and side of the bungalow and is predominantly level in aspect. It is enclosed by a combination of mature hedges and stock fencing with a vehicular gate leading to the road to the front. Close to the bungalow is an area enclosed by post and rail fences with a concrete pad that formerly had a wooden livestock shelter. In all the property extends to approximately 2.47 acres.

Completion

Completion has been set for Wednesday 16th August 2023 or earlier by arrangement.

If you are successful in purchasing more than one lot, we will contact you following the auction to take subsequent payments for additional lots bought.
