New Buildings, Frome, BA11

Enjoying an excellent position in the Town, tucked away from busy roads and yet within striking distance of the Town Centre, the Train Station and other amenities, 8 New Buildings is an attractive double fronted period cottage with the most incredible walled gardens.

The accommodation throughout is filled with charming period features that you would expect of a house of this age. The front door leads into a useful entrance hall with space for coats and shoes. Leading on into the house you have a light and airy living/dining room which runs the full width of the cottage. There are exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace with a Morso wood burner that takes centre stage. The kitchen lies to the rear and enjoys an outlook over the gardens and beyond. There are a range of wall and base units topped with solid oak and room for appliances.

There is also a downstairs, well-appointed and spacious bathroom in addition to a multi-purpose ground floor room which can be used as a reception room, a studio/home office or a further bedroom.

An attractive spiral staircase leads up to the first floor. Formerly it was a three bedroom and our vendors decided to remove a partition wall to create a beautifully light yoga retreat.

 The master bedroom is dual aspect and full of natural light. There are great views across the gardens and beyond and there are attractive floorboards under foot. There is also a first-floor shower room.

OUTSIDE

The South facing gardens lie to the rear and are truly incredible. Without question, a huge selling point for this cottage. The gardens are fully enclosed, largely by attractive stone walls. There is a great degree of privacy, a number of seating areas and an array of beautiful, mature shrubs and plants that provide colour all year round.
