5 The Barn GardenGreat Elm, Frome, BA11 3NY

Plot 5 is a striking three bedroom detached house arranged over two storeys featuring a distinctive curved roofline. A recessed entrance leads through to a central hallway with the main accommodation leading off. The hallway leads through to a triple aspect living room on the right hand side with views over the garden. To the left is the triple aspect, open plan kitchen dining room with handy utility / boot room which also has external access.

Stairs lead up to the three double bedrooms, a study and a family bathroom on the first floor. The dual aspect principal bedroom has an en suite shower room, along with a walk-in wardrobe.

Outside there is an enclosed garden with areas laid to lawn and patio. A paved driveway provides parking for two to three cars, whilst soft planting areas and permeable surfaces encourage a naturalist visual.

The Barn Garden is a collection of five carefully crafted brand new homes located in a semi-rural position in the Somerset village of Great Elm. Whilst being contemporary in style, the heritage of the area is subtly reflected in the design of each home with judicious use of natural materials such as the treated natural wood cladding and profiled metal sheeting. Large windows draw the eye to the panoramic views across towards the Mendip Hills whilst strong eco credentials ensure all homes are easy and efficient to run. The mixed aesthetic employed through The Barn Garden ensures a sense of cohesive individuality with elements of asymmetry, Dutch Barn influences and double gabled roofs.

Sustainability has been at the forefront for The Barn Garden with sensitive and minimal disruption to flora and fauna. Extensive measures have been taken to minimise the impact of the development on the natural environment such as reduced carbon emissions, more of which are detailed within the linked brochure.

A detailed specification is included within the linked brochure however highlights include Air Source Heating, which amongst other measures has [with one exception] resulted in an EPC rating of A. Other notable items are the underfloor heating, Masterclass kitchens with Quartz worktops, electric car charging and solar panelling.
