Description

Quote Reference NF0664 To Arrange Your Viewing

Introducing Wa-Sahlan, after its namesake, welcome indeed to this charming family retreat nestled in a serene setting that will captivate your heart and inspire lasting memories. 

This detached residence, dating back to the 1980s, boasts a unique character and is enveloped by 1/2 acre of lush grounds, creating a private sanctuary for families seeking tranquillity amidst scenic woodland and valley views. 

The property is approached via a sweeping driveway. There is ample room to park several vehicles. A small front lawn looks out onto the valley, a perfect spot for a quiet cup of tea.

 

The spacious layout of 184 square metres includes an inviting living room with a log burner and French doors opening to the rear terrace, perfect for cherished evenings with loved ones. The rear of the property is secured by a 5-bar gate to the east and gated lean-to storage area to the west. The very private terrace runs the length of the house.


An adjoining room offers a quiet space for work or hobbies, while the modern kitchen with quality fittings flows seamlessly into the dining area, ideal for family meals and entertaining, also leading out onto the rear terrace.

A separate entrance hall, alongside the dining room, leads to a utility room. The ‘family snug’ is joined to a large versatile room presently used as a gym and music room. This ‘annex’ ( Den) has the potential to create a second storey extension subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission. It could become a self-contained living space for multi-generational living or Airbnb.

Upstairs, there are four well-proportioned bedrooms, modern ensuite and family bathroom offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside. 

The tiered gardens are accessed by two sets of steps which are at either end of the terrace, and which take you to, firstly a lawn with two raised beds and then onto a paddock which includes fruit trees and decking area with summerhouse. The summerhouse has an electricity supply, and the garden has ample lighting for those barbeque evenings. Here you can sit and relax and watch the sun go down over the stunning valley.

 

 

Location

Situated approximately six miles from the city of Bath and the charming town of Frome. It is also about sixteen miles to the cities of Bristol and Wells.

Here you are invited to embrace a slower pace and savour the simple pleasures of everyday life. Immerse yourself in the natural beauty that surrounds the property, with lush greenery and rolling hills that promise breath-taking views at every turn. Take a leisurely hike through ancient woodlands or bask in the tranquillity of a serene garden, letting nature's embrace soothe your spirit.
