About this listing

Set within a small and peaceful hamlet close to Frome, 45 Witham Friary is a charming stone-built semi-detached cottage with a particularly impressive garden extending to approximately 0.3 of an acre. The property combines traditional character with practical and versatile accommodation, but it is the exceptional gardens which are undoubtedly the jewel in the crown. Set back from the road behind an attractive stone wall, the property is approached through a beautifully planted front garden, with mature topiary creating an attractive and established setting. A wooden gate provides access to the driveway and garage. An oak porch leads directly into the main reception room, a cosy and characterful space with exposed beams, built-in storage and a Jetmaster fire providing a lovely focal point. From here, the accommodation flows through to the kitchen/dining room at the rear of the property. The kitchen has a good range of country-style wall and base units, together with a dresser providing useful additional storage and display space. There is ample room for dining, whilst windows overlook the garden and draw in plenty of natural light. The room is open to the hallway, where double doors lead directly outside and stairs rise to the first floor. A connecting passage provides access between the kitchen and the garage, with a useful downstairs WC situated along the way. On the first floor there are three bedrooms, comprising two comfortable doubles and a smaller single room. The latter would make an ideal home office, dressing room or nursery, depending upon individual requirements. A family bathroom serves the bedrooms and is fitted with a three-piece suite. A further staircase leads to the top floor and a useful loft room, which has an attractive apex ceiling and provides valuable additional space for a variety of uses. There may also be potential to extend or reconfigure the existing accommodation, subject to the necessary planning and building regulation consents. OUTSIDE The gardens are undoubtedly one of the property's greatest assets. Extending to approximately 0.3 of an acre, this is a beautifully established and thoughtfully designed garden which has been divided into a series of distinct areas and garden rooms. Immediately to the rear of the house is a generous garden space leading into a succession of beautifully planted areas, with mature ornamental topiary, established shrubs and planting creating a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion. There are productive vegetable beds and a substantial greenhouse, making this a particularly appealing garden for those with a passion for growing and gardening. The garden continues towards the rear boundary, where the planting gives way to a wonderful open outlook across adjoining fields. To the front there is a planted garden enclosed by a stone wall, whilst driveway parking is secured behind a wooden gate. The property also benefits from a garage. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Electric heating. Mains elec, water and drainage connected. Privately owned solar panels on a guaranteed feed in tariff.
