What Our Vendors Love

Our sellers have spent over four decades in this wonderful home and they have always loved it's charm and space and the green surroundings. It is such a unique and special place that it has become part of family. The house is bursting with character with the original parts dating back over one hundred and thirty years. It has been extended, which has given them a fantastic amount of living space both in the main house and in the attached bungalow; this has facilitated multi generational living perfectly. As a family growing up here the woodland and the gardens are so exciting with lots to explore and enjoy. The long private driveway bring you in from the road and there is a real sense of privacy around the property that has made this a very much cherished home for all these years.

Front Garden

Positioned in front of the property with access to both the annexe and main house, this front garden consists of a large stretch of lawn with a gravel path guiding you to the annexe entrance. The perimeter is bordered with wooden fencing, and sheltered by a collection of impressive trees, intensifying the element of privacy felt throughout.

Side Garden

To the side of the annexe, there is a continuation of lawn with the addition of a wooden storage shed and planting beds. A mix of shrubbery decorating the area, with tall surrounding trees.

Rear Garden

Mainly laid to lawn, with impressive trees throughout and to the borders. Steps down to the patio area directly to the rear of the property, and access to the woodland beyond.

Wooded Area

Opportunities to find a property boasting its own woodland are few and far between, which only adds to how special this home truly is. Take in the idyllic sounds of the wind through the leaves and birds in the trees whilst enjoying your very own private woodland walk.

About Forest Marble, Frome

4 Harris Close, Elworthy Park, Frome, BA11 5JY
Industry affiliations:Industry affiliation logo 0

Daisy and Will came up with the concept for Forest Marble having felt there was a huge gap in the estate agency market between High Street and Online agencies. Albeit both are an acceptable way of marketing your home, they both miss the point of putting the customers needs at the centre of what they do.

Modern day living means the consumer is used to getting answers to questions straight away, or they start to lose interest. This is why it was decided early on to be open and available to talk to one of our team 24/7. We are all exposed daily to a host of modern technological break throughs that improve efficiency and lessen disappointment. With this in mind we made the back office system completely cloud based, that way all of our team have access to the latest information where ever they are, thus saving time and money for our customers. However, should customers wish to visit our office they are free to do so 7 days a week.

We also have implemented this into our unique marketing techniques with our interactive virtual tours at the fore front of modern estate agency technologies. All of this for no upfront fees and only paying us if we successfully sell your home. We get asked by everyone why "Forest Marble", the answer is quite simple it is a local stone and many people throughout the areas we cover will find their own homes built on top of Forest Marble.
