Sycamore Drive, Frome, BA11

Set back from the road behind a low contemporary slatted fence, the property is approached via a gravel pathway leading through attractively planted beds filled with an abundance of colourful shrubs and perennials, creating an immediate sense of calm and privacy. To one side, timber-clad storage and bin stores have been thoughtfully incorporated, while a secure gate provides access to the rear garden.

The entrance is sheltered beneath an impressive glass veranda, beautifully framed by established planting and providing a delightful spot to sit and enjoy the surroundings throughout the seasons. From here, the front door opens directly into the sitting room, where natural light pours in through large bifold doors and an overhead rooflight. Engineered oak flooring runs throughout, while the open layout creates an immediate feeling of space and flow.

The sitting room opens effortlessly into the kitchen and dining area, forming the true heart of the home. Designed with both style and practicality in mind, the kitchen features sleek matt handleless cabinetry, integrated appliances, eye-level ovens and a central island providing additional preparation space and informal seating. There is ample room for a large dining table, making this an ideal space for both everyday family life and entertaining. Bifold doors frame a wonderful outlook over the garden and open directly onto the decking, allowing the outside to become a natural extension of the living space.

The bungalow offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, comprising three doubles and a comfortable single room, currently arranged as a home office. Beautifully decorated in calm, neutral tones and finished with soft carpeting, each room provides a peaceful retreat while offering flexibility for growing families, guests or home working.

The bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom, fitted with a modern white suite, tiled walls around the bath and shower, and practical mirrored storage.

The rear garden is quite exceptional. Professionally designed and beautifully established, it has been carefully planned to provide year-round colour, structure and privacy. A generous decked terrace extends directly from the kitchen, creating an inviting space for outdoor dining and entertaining, while the west-facing aspect enjoys afternoon and evening sunshine. Beyond, an immaculate lawn is surrounded by richly planted borders featuring an abundance of carefully selected ornamental shrubs, grasses and flowering perennials, creating a tranquil and highly private garden that feels both elegant and immersive. Every element has been thoughtfully considered, resulting in an outdoor space that is as impressive as the home itself. Unallocated parking is available on street. 

Having been extensively modernised throughout, including upgraded windows, the property is presented in excellent decorative order with a fresh, understated aesthetic inspired by contemporary Scandinavian design. A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully finished bungalow where exceptional interiors are perfectly matched by one of the finest gardens of its type.
