What the owners love about their house... 'We love the Cotswold brick that makes it feel more like a cottage and the peaceful setting and perfect location just 20 mins walk into town and near a supermarket. Lots of natural light floods the house making it feel open and bright too. It’s been a homely and cosy space for us to start building our family memories.'

Steps lead up to the front door and into the hall with stairs ahead of you. There is a contemporary downstairs cloakroom and a good sized lounge with neutral coloured carpets and a great understairs storage cupboard with bags of room for your ironing board, hoover and those other bits and bobs you want to keep out of sight.

From the lounge is a lovely kitchen/diner with a gas hob and double oven, plumbing for a washing machine or washer/dryer, plumbing for a dishwasher and space for a fridge freezer. There are plenty of wall and base units and the current owners have used the space well to add extra storage and shelving. Above the sink is a window looking out into the garden so you can keep an eye on the children while they play outside. At the other end is the dining area with room for a table for family mealtimes and patio doors into the garden mean you don't need to worry about muddy footprints coming through the hallway - either human or canine!

Upstairs are two generous double bedrooms. Bedroom 1 has a useful bulkhead storage cupboard and plenty of space for all the furniture you need and Bedroom 2, which is currently set up as a nursery and office, has ample space for a cot and furniture and still leaves plenty of room for play. With both bedrooms being almost identical sizes you can chose whether you want to look out over the garden or out to the front.

Between the bedrooms is a modern family bathroom with thermostatic shower over the bath and full height tiling around for those messy bath times or for a lovely long soak at the end of the day. A vanity unit under the sink provides useful extra storage.

Outside there is a lawned garden with a patio area and garden shed as well as driveway parking for 2 cars.

This lovely home is ready to move into and has all the energy saving benefits of a new home such as double glazing and top spec insulation so you can save up to £3000 in energy costs compared to a similar sized older home and the EPC rating of B means it qualifies for a Green Mortgage too. Be sure to book your viewing soon.

Edmund Park is a popular development on the eastern side of Frome with an Asda superstore and petrol station within walking distance - although you may want to take your car if you need petrol! It has cycle paths, a children’s play area and easy access to the surrounding countryside for walking and cycling. It borders the River Frome and there are plans underway to create a picnic area on the river bank. There is a community space which is used for a variety of pop up events throughout the year and a bridge which will link the development to the train station on the other side of the river is planned.

At the entrance to Edmund Park is a wildlife sanctuary which is home to our resident beaver and otter population and in the Spring you can join the Toad Patrol, helping the baby toads and froglets safely across the road to the other side.

A lovely walk along the river Frome and through Rodden Meadow will take you right into the centre of the town in 15 to 20 minutes and the Rye Bakery, which sells the best cardamon buns in the Western Hemisphere is less than 10 minutes' walk. It is also right by the station so I should probably mention that too. Check out the interactive 'Key Facts for Buyers' (Virtual Tour 1) for everything you want to know about the local area.

Frome is a popular Somerset town which is regularly voted one of the best places to live in the South West. It is home to a very creative community of writers, artists and musicians with the music venue, The Cheese and Grain, having previous hosted a surprise gig by the Foo Fighters as well as Paul McCartney's pre-Glastonbury gig last year. It offers a variety of high street names and a large selection of independent shops and cafes, particularly on the iconic Catherine Hill. The town hosts a very popular independent market held on the first Sunday of every month between March and December and an Arts Festival in July. Frome was one of the first places in the country to have a Community Fridge where residents and shop owners can donate excess food to the community to prevent food waste and also set up the first Share Shop where you can borrow anything from a highchair to a garden strimmer for a small fee. There is a leisure centre with pool, several theatres, a train station with good links to London, Cardiff, Dorset and Devon and whatever your hobby or passion there is bound to be a club or society which will welcome you.
