A rare opportunity to acquire an unmodernised three-bedroom semi-detached home in a popular and well-established residential area of Frome. Having been owned by the same family since it was purchased off plan in 1961, the property has been clearly well cared for and thoughtfully maintained over the years, offering a wonderful chance for a new owner to create a long-term family home.
The property is set back from the road behind a low brick wall, with a front garden laid to gravel, which could be adapted to provide additional parking if required. A driveway runs alongside the house, offering tandem parking for multiple vehicles and leading to a detached single garage at the rear, which benefits from power.
The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hallway, where there are stairs rising to the first floor and useful understairs storage. To the front of the property is the sitting room, enjoying a large south-west facing window which allows for excellent natural light. A sliding door leads through to the dining room at the rear, which overlooks the garden and provides a pleasant space for family life and entertaining. Adjacent to the dining room is the kitchen, which has a practical arrangement and a door providing access to the driveway.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, including two generous doubles and a notably spacious third bedroom, larger than typically found in similar homes. The bedrooms are served by a bathroom with a separate WC.
A drop-down ladder provides access to a large and useful loft space, where the boiler is also located. The boiler has been installed relatively recently, and the property benefits from double glazing throughout, along with fibre-to-door broadband and a satellite dish.
Outside, the rear garden is fully enclosed and designed for ease of maintenance, with a tiled patio area directly behind the house and the remainder laid to gravel with raised flower beds and a greenhouse. The garden offers a private outdoor space with scope for further landscaping if desired.
The location is particularly convenient, with a range of local amenities within easy walking distance. Well-regarded schools catering for all age groups are close by, along with Frome’s town centre, countryside walks, and a variety of leisure facilities including the theatre, sports centre, and local cricket, rugby and football grounds.
The property is in good order whilst offering excellent potential for extension, subject to the necessary planning consents. It is offered to the market with no onward chain.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Gas fired central heating. Electricity, water and mains drainage are all connected.
