Description
Westerley House is a lovely family home situated in the pretty hamlet of Tellisford, perfectly positioned between Bath and Frome, on a quiet no through road, leading by foot to a medieval Packhorse Footbridge. The house sits within its own grounds and enjoys fabulous views over the river Frome valley.
The house has flexible accommodation with spacious sitting room, dining room and kitchen/breakfast room as well as two studies allowing two office spaces or alternatively one could be used as a fifth bedroom. The sitting room is of an excellent size and has a stone fireplace with wood burning stove. There are four bedrooms, three of which are double, with a shower room as well as a family bathroom. The house was built in the 1970’s but retains a period look. A rather lovely sun-room/wood frame conservatory sits to the rear of the house and takes in the gardens, south-facing views and wildlife around it.
The property benefits from glorious sweeping gardens and lawns surrounding as well as mature trees and stunning planted flowering borders. The garden is a haven for wildlife and is home to many species of birds. The garden also has a kitchen garden vegetable plot and several apple and pear trees. The house has a walled front garden with a driveway entrance, enough space for several cars. A double garage overlooks the driveway to one side and has power and lighting. A tennis court sits to the side of the property that could be refurbished and restored to its former glory, or one could build ancillary accommodation/annexe to the main house, perfect for an elderly relative or as extra accommodation/office space (subject to planning).
Situation
The property occupies a semi-rural position in Tellisford, a little gem of a hamlet within easy reach of the UNESCO World Heritage City of Bath and the vibrant market town of Frome. Nearby, Rode Village offers a Methodist primary school, post office and shop, while in Beckington amenities include Pre and Church School, Springmead Preparatory School and Nursery, a village hall, cricket and football clubs and the popular Més Amis deli and café. A Marks & Spencer food store and local garage is conveniently located on the main road, while White Row Farm provides an impressive selection of local produce and a well-loved café.
Regular bus services run into Bath (approximately twelve miles away) from Rode and the area offers a broad choice of secondary education, including independent schools such as Monkton Combe, Prior Park College and King Edwards, as well as state options including Ralph Allen, Beechen Cliff and Hayesfield. Rail connections are available from Bradford-on-Avon (approximately five miles away), Westbury (approximately eight miles away), with links to Bath Spa and London Paddington (76 minutes direct from Bath Spa).
