Summary - 6C STONY STREET FROME BA11 1BU
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Central one-bedroom with private courtyard — ideal starter home or buy-to-let.
- Central location on characterful cobbled street
- Open-plan lounge and kitchen, sociable living space
- Private rear courtyard with shed and direct access
- Versatile extra room suitable for office or guest use
- Electric heating; storage heaters throughout, higher running costs
- Solid brick walls likely uninsulated — consider insulation works
- Very slow broadband speeds; poor for heavy home-working
- High local crime levels; security measures advised
This characterful one-bedroom apartment sits on a picturesque cobbled street in central Frome, offering a compact, sociable open-plan lounge and kitchen and a private rear courtyard. The versatile second room works well as a home office, guest space or small bedroom, adding flexibility for first-time buyers or landlords seeking rental potential.
Practical running costs are influenced by electric heating and storage heaters throughout; walls are likely solid brick with no insulation, so expect higher heating bills and potential improvement works. Broadband speeds are very slow and local crime levels are high—factors to consider if working from home or prioritising security and connectivity.
Leasehold terms are long (around 979 years), with a low nominal ground rent and a service charge of approximately £1,080 per year. The property requires minimal immediate work but offers clear scope for refurbishment or energy-efficiency upgrades to increase comfort and rental value.
Viewing is advised to assess room proportions and the courtyard layout. This is a central, character-filled opportunity for a first-time buyer seeking a compact home or an investor after a manageable town-centre let with potential upside from modest improvements.
