Marsh Road, Rode, Frome, BA11

Set just off the village green in the popular village of Rode, this substantial bungalow offers over 130 sq m of well-balanced accommodation, wrapped in a setting that feels both private and perfectly connected to village life. Built in 1965, and occupied by the same family since, the home is approached via a low-walled front garden with iron gate and pathway to the front door, the home immediately sets a welcoming tone. The frontage is largely laid to lawn, softened by mature planting and a yew hedge, while a gated driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles and leads to a single detached garage.

Inside, a light-filled porch opens into a central corridor that neatly anchors the home. To the front right sits a generous sitting room, beautifully proportioned and flooded with light from its dual-aspect windows, with a feature fireplace forming a natural focal point. Double doors connect through to the dining room, an ideal space for entertaining, which in turn opens either to the rear conservatory or into the kitchen. The kitchen is well equipped with a comprehensive range of wall and floor units, granite worktops and a breakfast bar peninsular, offering both practicality and a sociable layout for everyday living.

The bedrooms are arranged along the left-hand side of the property. The master bedroom is positioned to the front and benefits from an extensive range of built-in storage. A second double bedroom sits centrally, also with fitted wardrobes, while to the rear is a further smaller double bedroom, currently incorporating a walk-in shower. A family bathroom with white suite and shower over the bath is complemented by generous storage, alongside a separate WC and airing cupboard. Access to a large loft space provides excellent additional storage.

Running along the rear is an impressive 7-metre conservatory, enjoying exceptional views across the south-facing garden and creating a wonderful link between house and garden throughout the seasons. The conservatory is heated by electric radiators. The garden itself is a real highlight: thoughtfully landscaped with a dining terrace, a triangular lawn, mature borders and, to the rear, an impressive pergola with established foliage that adds both structure and charm. To the rear of the garage is a useful store room, completing the practical features of the plot.

Offered to the market chain free, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious and versatile bungalow in a prime village position, moments from the green and all that Rode has to offer.
