Wallbridge Avenue, Frome, BA11 1RL

Situated along one of Frome's popular tree-lined residential avenues, this handsome Victorian bay-fronted home offers a superb combination of period character, stylish modern finishes and thoughtfully extended accommodation.

Ideally placed within easy walking distance of both the town centre and railway station, the property has been beautifully maintained and offers a particularly appealing layout for modern living.

A bright and welcoming entrance hall provides the first glimpse of the character throughout the property, with stripped panelled doors, hardwood flooring and stairs rising to the first floor.

The sitting room is a particularly attractive space, centred around an impressive Victorian open fireplace with a wooden surround, original ornate tiles and tiled hearth.

The large bay window provides plenty of natural light, whilst useful understairs storage is cleverly incorporated beneath the staircase.

The refitted kitchen is both stylish and practical, centred around a freestanding island and fitted with a bespoke range of wooden cabinetry and contemporary work surfaces.

Integrated appliances include an electric oven, Bosch induction hob, extractor and dishwasher, with further provision for an American-style fridge freezer and both a washing machine and dryer.

The kitchen flows seamlessly into the impressive dining and family room extension.

This superb addition to the house creates a wonderful open-plan social space, with two roof windows and large bi-folding doors flooding the room with natural light.

There is ample space for a large dining table alongside a comfortable seating or snug area, making this an ideal room for family life and entertaining.

The bi-folding doors open directly onto the rear terrace and garden, creating a lovely connection between the house and outside space.

Upstairs, the first floor provides two comfortable bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom.

The main bedroom benefits from twin windows to the front, a Victorian fireplace and access to the staircase leading to the useful storage space, fully lined and boarded with electrical points and lighting.

The second, smaller bedroom overlooks the rear garden.

The contemporary family bathroom has been finished to a high standard and includes a bath with shower over, glass screen, wash hand basin and WC, with attractive tiling and modern fittings throughout.

OUTSIDE To the front, the property is set back from the road behind an attractive red-brick wall and enclosed garden.

A pathway leads to the front door, with the remainder of the garden planted with mature flowers and shrubs, creating an attractive approach to the house.

The beautifully landscaped rear garden provides a sunny, private and peaceful space in which to relax and enjoy outdoor dining and entertaining.

The bi-fold doors open directly onto a wooden decked area, and the garden is packed with a wide variety of thoughtful and harmonious planting, carefully chosen by the current owner.

A path leads through the garden towards the rear gate, where there is off-road parking for one vehicle. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Gas central heating. All mains services connected.
