Recently refurbished three-bed cottage with private low-maintenance garden.
Period stone cottage with exposed beams and inglenook fireplace
This newly renovated period cottage sits in the heart of Rode, a sought-after village between Bath and Frome. The house combines historic character — exposed stone walls, wooden beams and an inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove — with contemporary finishes throughout, creating a warm, move-in-ready family home.
Accommodation is arranged over three floors and includes three double bedrooms, a stylish new kitchen, ground-floor WC and a family bathroom on the first floor. The top-floor principal bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and flexible use as a bedroom or home office. At around 936 sq ft the layout suits a growing family or those wanting village life with easy access to nearby schools and amenities.
Outside, a pretty enclosed rear garden provides a low-maintenance, private space with a large storage shed. Practical details include gas central heating, double glazing installed since 2002, freehold tenure and fast broadband — useful for homework or remote working. There is no recorded flood risk and the area is very affluent and quiet.
Buyers should note the property’s traditional stone walls are likely uninsulated as built, and some further insulation or energy upgrades could be considered. There is a single family bathroom and a ground-floor WC only, so households wanting more bathrooms should plan accordingly. Overall, the cottage offers characterful village living with recent refurbishment and genuine potential to personalise further.
