Full Description: <p>Guide Price £900,000 - £950,000 PART EXCHANGE CONSIDERED</p><p>**Two images used have been computer generated to show the living room furnished and the garden planted**</p><p>Steeped in local history, Theobald Arms is an exceptional Grade II listed former public house that has been sympathetically restored and transformed into an impressive family home, seamlessly blending its historic character with striking contemporary design.</p><p>Occupying a prominent position at the top of the village, the property is ready for immediate occupation and offers beautifully balanced accommodation extending across three floors, complemented by generous gardens, extensive parking and uninterrupted views across the surrounding countryside. As a reminder of the building's rich heritage, the original painted heraldic inn sign has been retained within the grounds, providing a charming connection to its past.</p><p>The handsome stone façade immediately reflects the building's heritage, with a traditional gabled entrance porch and low stone boundary wall creating an attractive approach. A gravelled front garden enhances the setting, while a five-bar gate to the side opens onto a generous driveway leading to the detached double carport, providing ample parking for several vehicles.</p><p>The entrance porch opens into a magnificent sitting room stretching to almost ten metres in length. A wonderfully elegant reception room, it enjoys excellent natural light from sash windows overlooking the front of the property, while a wood-burning stove provides a warm focal point, perfectly complementing the building's period character. At the far end of the room, the staircase rises to the upper floors, naturally drawing you through the home.</p><p>Beyond lies the heart of the property: a spectacular contemporary extension that has been thoughtfully designed for modern family life.</p><p>Flooded with natural light from a large roof lantern and two sets of bi-folding doors, the expansive kitchen and dining room creates an effortless connection with the garden beyond. The bespoke kitchen is beautifully appointed with quartz worktops, an extensive range of cabinetry and a substantial central island providing seating for four, making it equally suited to everyday family life and larger gatherings. Integrated appliances, including an induction hob and wine fridge, complete this impressive space.</p><p>Adjoining the kitchen is a practical utility room with additional storage, sink and appliance space, while a separate cloakroom is positioned conveniently nearby with direct access to the garden.</p><p>Continuing through the ground floor, a second reception room offers welcome flexibility as a family room, snug or media room. Triple-aspect windows ensure the room is filled with natural light, while a handsome stone fireplace with wood-burning stove creates an inviting atmosphere throughout the seasons. Useful understairs storage adds further practicality.</p><p>The first floor provides three well-proportioned bedrooms. The master bedroom enjoys fitted storage within the eaves together with a stylish en-suite shower room. Two further bedrooms are served by an elegant family bathroom, thoughtfully designed to complement the character of the property with a freestanding claw-foot bath, separate shower enclosure, traditional sanitaryware and carefully chosen contemporary finishes.</p><p>The second floor offers two additional bedrooms, creating ideal accommodation for older children, guests or those working from home. One of these rooms benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while both enjoy delightful elevated views across the rolling countryside beyond.</p><p></p><p>A further feature of the property is the substantial cellar, accessed externally from the garden. Comprising two useful rooms, the main space benefits from natural light via a window and retains an attractive chimney breast, offering excellent potential as a workshop, studio, hobby room or extensive storage, subject to any necessary consents. Beyond lies a second store room, providing further practical storage, and another small chamber sits along the passageway. Together, these versatile spaces represent a valuable addition to the accommodation and offer exciting scope for a variety of future uses.</p><p>Throughout the property, the recent refurbishment has been carried out with great sensitivity. A restrained palette of crisp white décor and carefully selected finishes allows the original architectural features to take centre stage, while creating bright, welcoming interiors.</p><p></p><p>Outside, the rear of the property is every bit as impressive as the front. A substantial terrace spans the rear elevation, enclosed by contemporary glass balustrading and providing an outstanding setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond, the enclosed south-facing garden is mainly laid to lawn, offering ample space for children to play or for keen gardeners to further enhance the landscape. The juxtaposition of the historic stone building, with its attractive mullioned windows, against the striking contemporary extension creates a memorable architectural statement that perfectly encapsulates the success of the conversion.</p><p>Combining period significance with contemporary craftsmanship, Theobald Arms presents a rare opportunity to acquire a landmark village home offering exceptional living space, generous outside areas and countryside views, all within a beautifully restored historic building.</p><p>The Theobald Arms sits atop the village of Nunney, which benefits from a pub which serves good food, a shop, cafe and the 14th Century Medieval Castle. There are many footpaths with wonderful walks through glorious surrounding countryside. The village primary school is a short walk away and Frome is just over 3 miles away, with many amenities, independent shops, restaurants, and cafes. Frome train station has rail links to Bath, Bristol and London.</p><p></p><p>The area benefits from excellent communication links, with Frome and Westbury offering mainline rail services to London Paddington, Bristol, Bath and the South West, while the A36 and A303 provide convenient road access to the wider region.</p><p></p><p>The cathedral cities of Bath and Salisbury provide a comprehensive range of clothing and high street retail stores. There is a local primary school in Nunney and primary and senior schools can be found in Frome. Excellent private schools nearby are All Hallows in Cranmore, Millfield in Glastonbury, also in Bruton, Stratton on the Fosse, Warminster and Bath.</p><p></p><p></p><p></p>
