A light-filled top-floor loft apartment occupying the full width of a Victorian townhouse, recently renovated to a high standard and offered with no onward chain. The open-plan living space sits beneath exposed rafters and high ceilings, with a compact but stylish kitchen, a king-size bedroom tucked under the eaves, and a smart shower room. The flat totals 478 sq ft and is being sold as a share of freehold.
This property is already established as a successful Airbnb, making it a strong short-let or holiday-let investment given its central Frome location, five minutes’ walk from shops, supermarkets and the post office, and close to the train station with services to Bath, Bristol and London. Council Tax band A and fast broadband are positives for lettability and guest appeal.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the building is timber-framed with assumed no insulation, mains heating is not present (electric heaters assumed) and the EPC is graded G. The area records higher crime levels and the wider neighbourhood shows indicators of deprivation. These factors may affect long-term running costs, insurance and resale value unless addressed.
Overall this is a compact, characterful apartment that suits investors seeking an immediate short-let income or a first-time buyer wanting a town-centre pied-à-terre, provided they accept higher energy and potential retrofit costs related to insulation, heating and the lower EPC rating.
