This newly renovated double-fronted cottage blends period charm with contemporary finishes, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking village life. The open-plan ground floor centers on a wood-burning stove and thoughtful built-in storage, while a compact kitchen includes solid wood worktops and an electric Aga. The two upstairs bedrooms are neatly proportioned and the bathroom uses high-quality marble tiling with a freestanding bath and oversized rain shower.
Set in the desirable village of Beckington, the house is a short walk from local amenities — pubs, a café/deli, village school, playing fields and clubs — with Frome and larger towns within easy reach. Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, fast broadband and a low council tax band, making running costs comparatively modest.
Buyers should note this is a mid-terrace, traditional stone-built cottage (pre-1900) where the original sandstone or limestone walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation. While recently renovated cosmetically and mechanically, the solid-wall construction may need additional insulation works to improve long-term energy efficiency. The layout includes a single bathroom and around 634 sq ft of accommodation, so space is best suited to a couple, small family, or someone downsizing.
Overall, this cottage offers a move-in-ready period home with scope to personalise and improve energy performance over time. It will suit buyers who value village community life, character features and a compact, easily managed home close to countryside amenities.
