*GUIDE PRICE £475,000 - £500,000*

From the front door, you enter into a hallway leading to the kitchen, lounge and downstairs cloakroom. The lounge is spacious yet cosy, a perfect place to relax at the end of the day with a book or for an evening catching up on the latest boxset.

The kitchen is well equipped with contemporary white gloss units and ample worktop space for the most enthusiastic cook. It is equipped with an induction hob, electric oven, integrated dishwasher and space for a washing machine and fridge/freezer. There is more than enough room for a family sized dining table while still leaving plenty of room for a soft seating area, making it a very versatile, multifunctional space. Don't want to watch the football ? Then you can relax on the sofa and watch your own shows or just enjoy a bit of quiet time. Patio doors lead out into the larger than average garden and with the window above the sink, it is a lovely bright room.

A downstairs cloakroom and storage cupboard for coats and shoes completes the ground floor of this lovely family home.

The feeling of light and space continues as you go up the stairs to a spacious landing off which you will find 3 double bedrooms, a large single and a smaller single or home office which is perfect for home working or as a nursery or dressing room depending on your needs.

Bedroom 1 has an ensuite shower room with a window to bring in lots of natural light and there is also a family bathroom fitted with an electric shower over the bath so there are no arguments when you are getting ready in the morning.

Outside, the garden is generous and mainly lawned but offers plenty of scope for you to get creative with your planting.  A large patio runs across the back of the house and another patio area at the end of the garden catches the sun and is a lovely place for a quiet drink or a family barbeque.

There is parking for two cars on the driveway as well as an integral garage which offers the possibility of extending into it to provide additional living space subject to the usual consents.

This really is a must-see house if you are looking for a spacious and versatile family home with options to extend the living space and a quiet location with lovely countryside walks on your doorstep.

The Local Area

Edmund Park is a popular and friendly development on the eastern side of Frome with an Asda superstore and petrol station within walking distance - although you may want to take your car if you need petrol! It has cycle paths, a children’s play area  and easy access to the surrounding countryside for walking and cycling. It borders the River Frome and there are plans underway to create a picnic area on the river bank. There is a community space which is used for a variety of pop up events throughout the year and a bridge which will link the development to the train station on the other side of the river is planned.

At the entrance to Edmund Park is a wildlife sanctuary which is home to our resident beaver and otter population. A lovely walk along the River Frome and through Rodden Meadow will take you right into the centre of the town in 15 to 20 minutes and the Rye Bakery, which sells the best cardamon buns in the Western Hemisphere is less than 10 minutes' walk. Its also right by the station so I should probably mention that too. Check out the interactive 'Key Facts for Buyers' (Virtual Tour 2) for everything you want to know about the local area.

Frome is a popular Somerset town which is regularly voted one of the best places to live in the South West. It is home to a very creative community of writers, artists and musicians with our famous music venue, The Cheese and Grain, having previous hosted a surprise gig by the Foo Fighters as well as Paul McCartney's pre-Glastonbury gig.. It offers a variety of high street names and a large selection of independent shops and cafes, particularly on the iconic Catherine Hill.

The town hosts a very popular independent market held on the first Sunday of every month between March and December and an Arts Festival in July. Frome was one of the first places in the country to have a Community Fridge where residents and shop owners can donate excess food to the community to prevent food waste and also set up the first Share Shop where you can borrow anything from a highchair to a garden strimmer for a small fee. There is a leisure centre with pool, several theatres, a train station with good links to London, Cardiff, Dorset and Devon and whatever your hobby or passion there is bound to be a club or society which will welcome you.
