Tankeys Close, Frome, BA11

Situated within a desirable residential development on the Bath side of Frome, this substantial detached family home occupies a quiet cul-de-sac position and is set back from the road behind a mature and attractively planted front garden. Offering generous and flexible accommodation arranged over two floors, the property presents an excellent opportunity for a new owner to modernise and create a superb long-term family home.

The property is approached via a driveway providing parking for two vehicles and access to an integrated single garage. The front garden is a particular feature, with established planting creating a colourful and welcoming approach.

A small entrance porch leads through into the main hallway, which provides access to the main ground floor rooms. There is a useful understairs storage cupboard, a downstairs WC and stairs rising to the first floor.

To one side of the house is a ground floor bedroom, complete with a shower wet room, offering ideal accommodation for guests, dependent relatives or multigenerational living.

The main sitting room is positioned to the front of the property and features a bay window, allowing for good natural light. Sliding doors lead through into the dining room, creating a flexible and connected living space. The dining room benefits from built-in storage and double doors opening directly onto the rear garden, making it well suited for both everyday living and entertaining.

An arched opening leads into the kitchen, which enjoys a pleasant outlook over the garden. The kitchen offers a practical layout with a range of units, along with a door providing direct access outside.

Upstairs, the property offers five further bedrooms, comprising four doubles and a single bedroom, providing ample space for a growing family or those requiring home working areas. These rooms are served by a spacious family bathroom, which includes useful eaves storage, as well as a separate shower room.

The rear garden is a particularly special feature of the property, having been thoughtfully landscaped and carefully maintained over the years. The garden is arranged into a series of lawned areas, well-stocked borders and established planting, creating a private and tranquil setting. A greenhouse is positioned towards the rear, and a number of seating areas have been created to make the most of sunlight throughout the day.

The property would benefit from a program of cosmetic updating and modernisation, but offers significant potential to create a spacious and comfortable home in a highly regarded location.

The property is offered to the market with no onward chain.
