4 Iris Road is a particularly spacious 4 double bed house, having the same footprint as some the neighbouring 5 bed homes, and is situated on a tranquil private road of just two houses on the edge of the Edmund Park development, with far reaching countryside views.
What the owners love about their home...'We have felt very privileged to enjoy such beautiful countryside views from our house - and have never felt closer to the wildlife on this peaceful side of the Edmund Park estate. We love to watch the horses in the opposite field, the birds of prey, hedgehogs, squirrels and pheasants from the front bedrooms. The house is very light and spacious and this together with the access to the countryside walks and the quiet enjoyment of our private drive plus bags of visitor parking has been a huge and luxurious bonus to living here.'
Steps up to the front door, with motion sensor light in the porch, take you into a generous hallway with the lounge, second reception, downstairs cloakroom and kitchen/diner off it. There is also a good sized storage cupboard under the stairs. You can't have too much!
The kitchen/diner, extending to just over 28 feet, is undoubtedly the star of this lovely home. The kitchen area, with ample white gloss units, has a gas hob, double electric oven, one and a half bowl stainless steel sink and plumbing for a dishwasher. The breakfast bar is the perfect place to sit and chat while dinner is cooking while the dining area is big enough for a large family-sized table and a soft seating area for relaxing. It is a perfect family and entertaining space. Two sets of patio doors lead out into the garden and bring in lots of natural light and the hardflooring means muddy paws and boots are not a problem.
Off the kitchen is a utility room with plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer and a door to the driveway so you can unload your shopping, dogs and children straight from the car into the house.
The lounge is light and airy but still a cosy space for relaxing at the end of a busy day. A coal effect gas fire with oak mantel and granite surround is the focal point of the room. Across the hallway is the second reception room which could be put to many different uses - a home office, snug, tv room or gaming room for the children. The possibilities are endless.
Upstairs, the principle bedroom is a really good size with a built in sliding door wardrobe with glazed doors and full length mirror as well as shelving, providing plenty of storage and an ensuite shower room, decorated in neutral tones. A window brings in lots of natural light. Bedroom 2 is another good sized double bedroom which is currently used as a craft/games room. At the back of the house are two equally sized double bedrooms, so no-one needs to argue about who gets the biggest room! A family bathroom with separate shower cubicle and bath makes busy mornings a breeze.
The owners have kept a neutral palette so it is a blank canvas for the new owners to put their own mark on it.
Outside there is a detached garage and driveway, with access through a gate to the garden which has a large patio area - perfect for an early morning coffee in the sunshine or a chilled glass of wine - with steps leading up to a tiered lawn area. There are also some lovely views from the front of the house across the River Frome valley to the hills beyond. The garden has an outside tap and motion sensor lighting and there is a useful gravelled space to the side of the house for storage or a greenhouse.
There is a lovely walk into town from Wallbridge along the river into Market Place and the station is can also be reached on foot in about 15 minutes.
The house as built in 2019 and benefits from the balance of the 10 year warranty which will be passed onto the new owners.
The Local Area
Edmund Park is a popular development on the eastern side of Frome with an Asda superstore and petrol station within walking distance - although you may want to take your car if you need petrol! It has cycle paths, a children’s play area and easy access to the surrounding countryside for walking and cycling. It borders the River Frome and there are plans underway to create a picnic area on the river bank. There is a community space which is used for a variety of pop up events throughout the year and a bridge which will link the development to the train station on the other side of the river is planned.
At the entrance to Edmund Park is a wildlife sanctuary which is home to our resident beaver and otter population. A lovely walk along the river Frome and through Rodden Meadow will take you right into the centre of the town in 15 to 20 minutes and the Rye Bakery, which sells the best cardamon buns in the Western Hemisphere is less than 10 minutes' walk. Its also right by the station so I should probably mention that too. Check out the interactive 'Key Facts for Buyers' (Virtual Tour) for everything you want to know about the local area and important material information that will help you make an informed decision on this property.
Frome is a popular Somerset town which is regularly voted one of the best places to live in the South West. It is home to a very creative community of writers, artists and musicians with the music venue, The Cheese and Grain, having previous hosted a surprise gig by the Foo Fighters as well as Paul McCartney's pre-Glastonbury gig last year. It offers a variety of high street names and a large selection of independent shops and cafes, particularly on the iconic Catherine Hill. The town hosts a very popular independent market held on the first Sunday of every month between March and December and an Arts Festival in July. Frome was one of the first places in the country to have a Community Fridge where residents and shop owners can donate excess food to the community to prevent food waste and also set up the first Share Shop where you can borrow anything from a highchair to a garden strimmer for a small fee. There is a leisure centre with pool, several theatres, a train station with good links to London, Cardiff, Dorset and Devon and whatever your hobby or passion there is bound to be a club or society which will welcome you.
