Butts Hill, Frome, BA11

This beautifully presented, period cottage, enjoys a great location just five minute’s walk of the Town Centre and ten minute’s walk of the Train station. Having been sympathetically improved, an array of charming old features combine seamlessly with modern enhancements.

The front door leads into a good size living room which enjoys beautiful, exposed stone walls, exposed beams and a working wood burner takes centre stage. Beyond is an updated kitchen which includes a range of units providing good storage, topped with oak work surfaces. There is an integrated oven with induction hob and extractor fan above and plenty of room for other white goods. A window above the sink looks over your gardens and a door from the kitchen also spills out onto the gardens, perfect for Alfresco dining and entertaining.

On the first floor there is a large double bedroom and a stunning bathroom with a bath and drench shower above. The main bedroom is on the second floor and is an excellent size with two velux windows filling the space with natural light.

The gardens lie to the rear and are fully enclosed and enjoy good levels of privacy. There is a patio seating area, a perfect spot for a coffee, whilst a lawn beyond includes a stone pathway leading to the BBQ hut towards the end of the plot. Off road parking lies immediately behind the gardens.

The house is a short walk from the town centre and its many independent cafés and boutique shops, including Rye Bakery, Projects Frome, Moo and Two, Frome Hardware, Little Walcot and Frome Reclamation Yard. Frome’s popularity has surged in recent years; the town is routinely named one of the best places to live in the UK, thanks to its thriving cultural scene, historic architecture, and beautiful surrounding countryside. The Frome Independent, a monthly market showcasing local artisans and food producers, has helped put Frome on the map, attracting over 80,000 visitors annually.

Transport links are also very good. A mainline railway service runs direct services from Frome to London Paddington, with a journey time of around 86 minutes. Access to the national motorway network is via the A303 (M3) and Bristol Airport is less than 30 miles away.
