Description

DESCRIPTION

Sunbeam is the largest plot within this exclusive development and enjoys extensive gardens in addition to river frontage wildlife area, just a ten minute stroll of the Town Centre.

The interiors are designed with modern elegance, featuring high quality finishes, expansive living spaces, and bespoke options to create your dream home.

Positioned within a serene and exclusive community, these homes offer the perfect combination of breathtaking natural beauty and yet being within 5 minutes stroll of the Train Station and 15 minutes stroll of the Town Centre.

The front door of the homes will lead into a spacious and bright entrance hall with access to the downstairs W.C, the utility room and stairs lead to the first floor. Beyond the entrance hall is the high spec, open planned, naturally bright kitchen/dining/living space which enjoys views across the gardens and represents an excellent entertaining area for families and those that enjoy hosting dinner parties. Doors spill out to the gardens, a perfect arrangement for al-fresco dining in the warm weather.

On the first floor there are four good size bedrooms, a study and a family bathroom. Bedrooms 1 & 2 also benefit from en-suite facilities.

To the front of the house there is driveway parking for two vehicles. The gardens predominantly lie to the rear and are an excellent size extending down to a wildlife area and the river with the bonus of fishing rights!

The outdoor space and the position of these houses is what makes this a very special opportunity.

LOCATION

River Sidings is the most perfect location for those that enjoy wildlife and a green outlook whilst being close to amenities. The three houses are being constructed beside a community wildlife area within a short walk from the Town centre and its many independent cafés and boutique shops, including Rye Bakery, Projects Frome, Moo and Two, Frome Hardware, Little Walcot and Frome Reclamation Yard. Frome’s popularity has surged in recent years; the town is routinely named one of the best places to live in the UK, thanks to its thriving cultural scene, historic architecture, and beautiful surrounding countryside. The Frome Independent, a monthly market showcasing local artisans and food producers, has helped put Frome on the map, attracting over 80,000 visitors annually.

Transport links are also very good. A mainline railway service runs direct services from Frome to London Paddington.Access to the national motorway network is via the A303 (M3) and Bristol Airport is less than 30 miles away.

AGENTS NOTE

The properties are not yet under construction, the works will begin once a purchaser has exchanged contracts on the land, enabling any buyers to work closely with the developer and builder.

There will be a management company set up between residents to deal with communal area’s post completion.
