  • Double garage with power
  • Walkable distance from the town centre
  • Wood burning stove

  • Far reaching views of Frome

Originally built in the 1980s, the house has undergone thoughtful updates that allow you to mistake it for a new build.  

As you approach the house, you'll be struck by its position high above the roadside. The smart dark grey windows contrast beautifully with the large French Oak porch. The landscaped front garden features generous borders and a paved patio. Stepping inside, you'll be greeted by a spacious hallway that leads to a handy downstairs w/c on one side and ample space for coats and shoe storage on the other. The herringbone Karndean flooring runs through the hall and into the kitchen diner, creating a seamless flow throughout the ground floor. The open-concept kitchen and dining room is the hub of the house and features a stunning quartz island and breakfast bar that subtly divide the space. Neff appliances are all integrated, including the six ring induction hob, double ovens and a dishwasher. The wall and floor cabinets have a high gloss finish, and a double sink overlooks the garden. The utility space is cleverly tucked away around the corner and features a washing machine, floor cabinets, and a glass door out to the side of the property. 

The sitting room is accessible from the dining room and runs the depth of the house with dual-aspect windows. The wood-burning stove is a cosy focal point, and French patio doors take you out to the garden. 

Upstairs, the spacious landing features a stunning picture window with far-reaching views of Frome's rooftops. The first bedroom at the top of the stairs is a generous single room with a built-in wardrobe. The second room is currently set up as a guest double bedroom with views of the garden. The third bedroom can also accommodate a double bed or a single with additional bedroom furniture. The stunning primary bedroom benefits from a four-door fitted wardrobe, views across the garden, and easily fits a king-size bed. The primary ensuite has a generous walk-in shower and has been beautifully finished with pink herringbone and metro tiles with gold fittings and underfloor heating. The contemporary family bathroom accommodates a shower over the bath and underfloor heating.

The garden features two seating terraces, one on higher ground and the other on ground level. There are also raised beds, lawns, shrubs, ferns, and small trees. The double garage is a brilliant addition and offers ample room for two parked cars or an opportunity to convert into a home office. Parking for two cars is available on the drive. This property offers the perfect combination of elegance, comfort, and convenience. A short 5/10 minute walk along the river and via Welshmill will take you to the town centre, where you'll find a range of shops, restaurants, and amenities.

Frome has many independent shops, cafes and restaurants of Catherine Hill and the town beyond. Frome is a historic market town, just under 13 miles from Bath and surrounded by beautiful countryside. The town has many amenities, including good schools, two theatres, a cinema and a station with rail links to Bath, Bristol and London Paddington.

Places of interest

    Welcome to Hunter French Estate Agents Hunter French Estate Agents were formed in 2005 by Stephen Hunter and Karen Dumine both of whom had been working in corporate Estate Agency since 1996 and 1988 respectively. They decided to join forces and opened an Estate Agency that actually focused on selling property rather than mortgages, overseas homes and insurances! In 2007 their second branch was opened in Corsham with co – directors John Robinson and Jacob Heatley-Adams. In 2013, a renewed positivity in the UK housing market combined with Frome’s growing popularity has encouraged Director Ben Hansell to open a new office on Catherine Hill in Frome. With Ben’s innovative approach and passion for property along with a love for Frome and the surrounding area, he expects the office to be a real success. The company has gone from strength to strength specialising in selling quality homes and apartments in Bath, Corsham, Devizes, Frome and the surrounding villages. Hunter French also have a lettings division – HF Lettings – based in Corsham.
