Grade II listed former weavers cottage — restrictions on alterations
This Grade II listed former weaver’s cottage offers compact, characterful living in one of Frome’s most historic streets. The house has been recently refreshed internally, with a fitted kitchen, a modern bathroom suite and two bedrooms spread over three floors — a practical layout for first-time buyers seeking a central location.
The property benefits from an enclosed rear courtyard, on-street parking directly outside and easy pedestrian access to Catherine Hill’s independent cafes and shops. Gas central heating and mains services are in place; there is no identified flood risk and council tax is low, helping running costs.
Buyers should note the cottage is small (approximately 577 sq ft) and Grade II listed, which can restrict external and structural alterations. The stone-built walls are assumed to have no insulation, so further improvements may be needed for thermal performance and soundproofing. The surrounding area shows higher-than-average crime and local deprivation indicators, which may affect suitability for some purchasers.
Overall this is a charming, newly renovated starter home for someone who values character and town-centre convenience and is comfortable with the constraints and upkeep that come with a historic listed cottage.
