Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold

The Look Out is a detached 4 bedroom, 2 reception room property situated on the edge of Wells-next-the-Sea with the rare benefit of elevated views across the rooftops of the town and out to the sea in the distance.  Few properties in the town are lucky enough to combine spacious, well presented accommodation, attractive south facing gardens, garaging, conservatory, plenty of room for boat and caravan storage and, of course, panoramic views.

The gardens are a particular feature of The Look Out having been well maintained by the current owners. The east perimeter is flanked by the old railway line that used to run down to the Quay and which is now an area of mature trees with steep banks, attracting a wide variety of birdlife.

The Look Out is being offered for sale with no onward chain.



Wells-next-the-Sea has been a fishing and commercial port for nearly 600 years which still supports a thriving fishing fleet bringing in crabs, lobsters, mussels and whelks sold locally on the quayside and in nearby restaurants. With a growing number of leisure craft moorings, a lively, sociable sailing club, harbour and sea fishing trips, the town caters for every type of water activity including “gillying” -crabbing on the quayside. Situated a mile from the Quay, the stunning extensive sandy beach is ranked as one of the top 10 in the country by Telegraph Travel. Against a backdrop of Corsican pinewoods, the beach is home to the much publicised, iconic colourful beach huts, available to buy or rent daily.

From the top of town down to the Quay, Staithe Street provides visitors and locals with a wide variety of shops, cafes, galleries and food stores. For entertainment, the newly opened Wells Maltings offers live entertainment and exhibitions, whilst alongside the Quay, are all the usual popular traditional seaside attractions. Locals agree with The Times in March 2021 who voted Wells as one of the best places to live. Alongside coastal scenery, wildlife and water sports, the town has a primary and secondary school – both rated Good by Ofsted - as well as a library, doctor’s surgery and hospital providing a range of accessible and integrated health and well being services.



Mains water, mains drainage and mains electricity. Gas-fired central heating to radiators. EPC Rating Band C.
