Summary - THE OLD STABLES WHITECHAPEL LANE BECKINGTON FROME BA11 6TQ
Vaulted lounge with wood-burning stove and stone fireplace
An exceptional and versatile detached barn conversion set in about 0.4 acres close to Beckington and two miles from Frome. The original stone-built section offers a vaulted lounge with a wood-burning stove, a kitchen with an oil-fired Rayburn, study, and principal bedroom, while a substantial later extension creates a large dining/family room and an L-shaped annexe with its own kitchen/lounge and bedroom — ideal for multi-generational living or long-term guests.
The property includes a triple garage with a sizeable roof void and a large powered garden office/studio — useful for hobbyists, home working or conversion (subject to planning). Substantial attic trusses over the rear wing provide genuine scope to create additional first-floor accommodation if required, subject to the usual consents. Large lawns, fruit trees and a small stream make the gardens a standout feature and provide private outdoor space approaching half an acre.
Practical points are straightforward: broad parking and hardstanding, mains services with oil-fired heating to the front section, and some electric heating in the annexe. The home has been in the same ownership for nearly three decades and offers clear potential to reconfigure or upgrade systems. Note that broadband speeds are very slow here, and any loft/garage conversion will need planning permission and likely building regs. Council tax band is not provided.
This property will suit families seeking flexible accommodation, buyers wanting an annexe for relatives or rental income, and purchasers prepared to invest in modernising services and possibly obtain planning to expand living space.
