Rickhayes, Wincanton, Somerset, BA9

A three bedroom semi-detached house situated in a no-through road, conveniently located within easy walking distance of local amenities, including a convenience store and school.


Offering excellent potential for improvement and modernisation, this property presents an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to create a home tailored to their own taste and lifestyle. A particular highlight is the generous rear garden, making it ideal for families, keen gardeners, or those seeking additional outdoor space.

The accommodation is approached via an entrance hall, which leads into a cosy living room featuring exposed brickwork to one wall, adding character and warmth. To the rear of the property, the kitchen spans the full width of the house and provides ample space for a dining table, creating a practical setting for family meals.

On the first floor, there are three bedrooms, all retaining original picture rails, together with a family bathroom.

Externally, a section of the front garden has been adapted to provide provision for off-road parking; however, a dropped kerb would be required to create an officially recognised parking space. Side access leads to the substantial rear garden, which enjoys a sunny aspect and features areas of lawn, mature shrubs, established trees and hedging, offering both privacy and scope for further landscaping.

In summary, this is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a well-located home with tremendous potential, offering buyers the chance to modernise and create a property to perfectly suit their requirements.
