Great Dunns Close, Beckington, Frome, BA11

This attractive modern village home combines the characterful appearance of a traditional stone-faced property with the convenience and practicality of more contemporary construction. Built in 2015, the house is well presented throughout, with fresh neutral decoration, modern fittings and a welcoming feel, making it an ideal choice for first-time buyers, downsizers or those seeking a manageable home in a village setting.

The property is set back from the road, with a paved frontage providing an attractive approach and level, step-free access to the front door. An entrance hall leads through to the ground-floor accommodation, including a particularly spacious living room, kitchen and WC.

The living room is a generous and versatile space, offering ample room for both comfortable lounge furniture and a full-sized dining table and chairs. Its proportions make it an ideal setting for everyday living as well as entertaining, with a pleasant outlook and plenty of flexibility in how the space is arranged.

The contemporary kitchen is fitted with a range of modern units and provides a practical workspace, with a clean finish that complements the styling found throughout the home. A ground-floor WC completes the accommodation on this level.

Stairs rise to the first floor, where there are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both offering comfortable accommodation and space for bedroom furniture.

The bathroom is fitted with a modern white suite comprising a bath with shower over, wash basin and WC. Travertine-style tiling provides an attractive finish, complementing the contemporary feel of the room.

The property further benefits from gas-fired central heating and double glazing throughout, offering the comfort and efficiency expected of a more recently built home.

OUTSIDE

The rear garden is a particularly appealing feature, having been carefully maintained and attractively landscaped to create a private and manageable outdoor space. Predominantly laid to lawn, it incorporates a raised deck seating area, planted borders and a useful garden shed.

To the front, the property benefits from two allocated parking spaces, a valuable addition for a home of this nature. The paved frontage also provides a neat approach to the entrance, with step-free access to the front door.
