A Grade II listed 17th-century cottage in the heart of Keyford, this terraced home blends historic character with practical living. The ground floor offers an open-plan kitchen/dining area with flagstone floors and an inglenook fireplace, a sitting room with parquet flooring and wood-burning stove, plus a garden room that links directly to the west-facing garden and summer house with power. Upstairs there are two large double bedrooms and a renovated family bathroom. The property has been used successfully as a self-catering holiday cottage and benefits from fast broadband and a short walk to Frome town centre and the station.
Important practical points are clear: the house is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance and repair work. The property has been lovingly maintained but the age and listed status mean historic fabric (wattle-and-daub panels, exposed beams, flagstones) will require sympathetic care and appropriate consents for changes. There is useful side access, a stone outhouse with WC, and a private passageway to the garden for bins or bikes.
This will suit buyers who value period charm and a central Keyford location — families, downsizers or buyers seeking a character holiday-let opportunity. The riverside town of Frome offers amenities, good rail links to Bath and London, and local shops and pubs close by. Council Tax is low and there is no flood risk, but prospective buyers should budget for listed-property upkeep and obtain specialist advice before undertaking works.
