Chelynch Road, Doulting, Shepton Mallet, BA4

Description

Southberry Close is a detached house set in 1.19 acres situated in a semi-rural location on the edge of the village of Doulting,

Extended by the current owners and offering good sized accommodation, the property would now benefit from renovation and updating works, but it has great potential to be an ideal family home.

On the ground floor, the accommodation comprises a conservatory, dining room / study, downstairs cloakroom, utility room and kitchen / breakfast room. On the first floor, the split landing gives access to the three bedrooms – one double and two good sized singles. The large family bathroom is fitted with a pedestal wash hand basin, low level wc, a separate shower cubicle and a panel enclosed bath.

Outside

There is pedestrian and vehicular access across a driveway which is not owned by the property. A public footpath leads up the driveway and then follows the boundary to the east skirting around the house before following the boundary line to the bottom of the garden. There is a detached double garage with two up and over doors, power and light connected. There are formal lawns with a variety of shrubs, plants and trees and a paddock area with a boundary of conifer trees.

In total the plot measures 1.19 acres.

Completion

Completion has been set for 16th July 2024, or earlier by agreement.

Registering to bid and Administration fee

Cooper and Tanner require all bidders who wish to bid at our Auction to register beforehand, whether you are intending on bidding in the room, by proxy or online.
