This 1930s semi-detached house in Yatton, North Somerset, presents a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges. Located on Derham Park, it benefits from a convenient position near the village’s High Street, offering easy access to shops, schools (including Yatton Infant School and Yatton Church of England Junior School, both within a short walking distance), and the Yatton train station (less than a kilometer away). This adds to the property’s family appeal.

The property’s condition, however, is a key consideration. While seemingly structurally sound, the interior finishes appear dated, suggesting the need for significant refurbishment or modernisation. This would increase the overall cost of ownership. The included images show evidence of this, with older carpeting, wallpaper, and fittings.

A significant positive is the substantial rear garden visible in the photographs. This offers a generous outdoor space, ideal for families or those seeking space and privacy. There is also a patio area adjacent to the house.

The list price of £399,950 should be reviewed in the context of comparable properties in Yatton. While some similarly sized and located properties may fetch higher prices depending on condition, others are lower in price. The fact the home needs modernising needs to be factored in. Therefore, this price would seem reasonable, given the need for work but within the range of prices of comparable properties.

Overall, the property presents a viable option for buyers looking for a project in a well-situated area. However, the need for renovation and modernisation represents a crucial factor that prospective buyers should weigh carefully against the property’s location and potential.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
