About this home
The Home Welcome to Penleigh Cottage’ Occupying a popular position on the Frome side of town, this generously proportioned detached period cottage offers a wonderful blend of character features, flexible living accommodation and exciting future potential. The property has been extended over the years to create a spacious and versatile home, with a wealth of period charm throughout, including exposed oak beams, character fireplaces and attractive reception rooms. The impressive sitting room features an open fireplace with wood-burning stove and glazed doors opening directly onto the rear patio and landscaped garden, while a separate dining room provides additional reception space. The fitted kitchen offers practical accommodation and provides access to a useful cellar/basement, currently utilised for storage. On the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a particularly distinctive principal bedroom with its own private roof terrace. Externally, the home continues to impress with a generous, landscaped rear garden and a brick-paved patio ideal for outdoor dining. The home also has the advantage of rear private parking for several vehicles along with a substantial detached double garage benefits from twin up-and-over doors, eaves storage and rear access, offering excellent workshop, storage or garaging facilities. Further benefits include gas-fired central heating, double glazing, convenient access to the town centre and local amenities. Investment & Development Opportunity The property also presents an attractive opportunity for investors and developers, having previously been granted planning permission for the demolition of the existing garage and the construction of a detached three-bedroom residence. Copies of the previous plans are available upon request.
