Summary - 18, Berkley Marsh, Berkley, FROME BA11 5JE
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Characterful hamlet home with paddock, stables and wide country views.
Late-18th-century stone cottage with strong period character
Tucked away in the peaceful hamlet of Berkley Marsh on the edge of Frome, this late-18th-century former bakery is a characterful three-bedroom semi-detached cottage set in a large plot. Period features include exposed beams, a multi-fuel burner with back boiler, sash-style windows and stone elevations, all complemented by a conservatory with far-reaching countryside views. The house provides comfortable, well-proportioned living rooms and a generous kitchen-dining space ideal for family life and entertaining.
Outside is a major asset: established gardens, a front paddock, stables with power and water, a log store and a large double garage. The land has historically supported small-scale livestock and offers genuine smallholding or equestrian potential, plus room for vegetable growing and fruit trees. A private driveway leads to the property, providing convenient parking and a tucked-away feel.
Buyers should note practical considerations: the property relies on oil-fired heating and an older boiler with radiators, the stone walls are likely uninsulated, broadband speeds are very slow and glazing was installed before 2002. There is one main family bathroom and a downstairs cloakroom only. Council tax is above average. These factors may require investment to modernise services, reduce running costs and improve energy efficiency.
Overall this is a rare countryside opportunity for buyers seeking a character home with substantial external space and outbuildings. It will suit families or smallholding enthusiasts who value period charm and rural living and who are prepared to carry out targeted upgrades to heating, insulation and connectivity.
