Property Description
Situated on the award-winning Old Printworks development, within walking distance of the town centre and station, this lovely 3 bed home offers location, energy efficiency and modern open plan living. Ideal for a growing family or downsizers who don't want to compromise on space or quality.
What the owner loves about the house... 'we love the open plan space which is great, particularly with young children. The modern design, high ceilings and large seamless windows make it very spacious and light. Super fast broadband is perfect for remote working and we just love the location! It is a lovely, friendly neighbourhood and a welcoming community.'
Steps lead up to the front door then into the hallway with contemporary cloakroom and from there the house opens up into a bright and airy open plan living and dining area. Huge glass patio doors lead out into the garden which offers a lovely space for quiet relaxation. The kitchen, with contemporary handleless matt white units, has a Bosch induction hob, oven, extractor, integrated fridge freezer and dishwasher. A utility cupboard in the living area provides further storage as well as plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. A large window brings lots of natural light into the kitchen area and there is a further storage cupboard under the stairs.
The living space is fantastic with plenty of room for large sofas for relaxing while you look out onto the garden or keep an eye on the children playing. There is a dining area which can take a large family sized table - perfect for entertaining or family meals - and the open plan layout means you don't have to be stuck in the kitchen while everyone else is enjoying themselves. Hard flooring makes cleaning a breeze, especially if you have muddy feet or paws to contend with.
Stairs lead from the living area up to the first floor with 2 good sized double bedrooms and a spacious single bedroom. which would, equally, make a good office for remote working as it is currently being used at the moment. The principal bedroom has built in white wardrobes and a lovely ensuite shower room with double width shower and white sanitaryware. A window in the ensuite brings in lots of natural light. A family bathroom with shower over the bath completes the living accommodation and a large cupboard on the landing provides even more storage. You really can't have too much.
Outside, the southwest facing garden is mainly lawned with a patio area for summer barbeques, giving a blank canvas for you to try out your own garden design ideas, and has plenty of space for a garden room or summer house. A gate leads out to the allocated parking and the garage which is beneath the coach house behind.
The house has triple glazed windows and doors providing a high level of energy-efficiency.
There are also communal car chargers and a Spar shop which will soon also have a post office and a beauty salon and hairdressers on the development. Walking round The Old Printworks you can see how much people enjoy living here and cherish their surroundings. The front gardens have all been planted with an abundance of flowers and the seats at the front of the houses reflect the welcoming community that has grown up here.
This is a rare opportunity to buy a 3 bed house on this fantastic development so don't miss out.

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.
