Ask AgentSet back from the road on the popular Bath side of Frome, this well-presented three-bedroom link-detached home offers generous and versatile accommodation, an integral garage, driveway parking and a particularly impressive south west facing garden. The property is approached via a low-maintenance graveled front garden, with a pathway leading to the front door and a single parking space to the side.
A small entrance porch opens into a welcoming hallway, which provides a good first impression of the home with plenty of space for a console table, stairs rising to the first floor and access to a useful downstairs WC.
To the left of the hallway is a lovely sequence of reception spaces, beginning with the formal sitting room at the front of the house. This is a comfortable and well-proportioned room, centered around a stone surround with gas fire which provides an attractive focal point, while a large bay window draws in plenty of natural light and overlooks the front garden. From here, the room flows directly through into the formal dining room, creating a natural arrangement for both everyday living and entertaining.
Sliding doors from the dining room open into the impressive garden room. With its vaulted ceiling, generous proportions and wooden blind shutters, this is a particularly appealing addition to the accommodation and provides a wonderful connection with the garden beyond. Whether used as a relaxed second sitting room, entertaining space or somewhere to enjoy the garden throughout the year, it adds a valuable and versatile dimension to the home.
The kitchen is positioned towards the rear of the house and is fitted with a range of glossy, curved-fronted units, complemented by Corian worktops, induction hob, and integrated appliances such as double neff ovens with microwave. A deep storage cupboard provides useful additional household storage, while the arrangement gives a good balance of preparation space and storage.
From the kitchen, a door leads through to the utility room, where the boiler is housed and there is further useful space for household appliances and storage. A further door provides direct access into the integrated single garage, making this a particularly practical arrangement for day-to-day living.
Upstairs, the accommodation continues with three well-proportioned bedrooms. There are two generous double bedrooms, one of which benefits from an extensive run of built-in wardrobes, together with a further bedroom which would make an ideal child's room, study or occasional guest bedroom. All bedrooms have wooden shutters. The landing is unusually wide and light, providing a pleasant sense of space as well as access to the loft and bedrooms.
The family bathroom is well equipped with a bath with hand held shower and a separate spa shower, offering both a relaxing bath and a more practical showering option.
Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight. Immediately behind the house is a paved patio area, with a covered section providing an excellent spot for outdoor entertaining and al fresco dining, whatever the weather. Beyond this is a fenced, south west facing garden, predominantly laid to lawn and offering an attractive blank canvas for those with green-fingered ambitions. The garden enjoys a good degree of privacy and provides plenty of space for children, pets, entertaining or simply relaxing in the sunshine.
