2 bedroom detached bungalow

Available to cash buyers only and offered with no onward chain, South View is a detached prefabricated bungalow situated in an attractive tucked away location just a leisurely 2 minute stroll to The Buttlands in the ever popular seaside town of Wells-next-the-Sea.  The property is constructed of a single brick wrap to the outside and asbestos panelled internal walls meaning it is unlikely to be mortgageable but offers huge potential for refurbishment or redevelopment (subject to the necessary permissions).  An asbestos survey report is available for inspection from Belton Duffey.

In brief, the accommodation comprises an entrance hall, sitting/dining room and kitchen with 2 bedrooms, bathroom and cloakroom.  There is also the benefit of UPVC double glazed windows and doors throughout and gas-fired central heating.

Outside, South View is set well back from the road with a triangular front lawned garden with side walled courtyard and further raised garden area to the rear.  The driveway up to the bungalow is shared with the house to the north and conveyance details are available for inspection from Belton Duffey.  Please also note that the seller, Homes for Wells, requires that the property must be marketed for a minimum of 14 days before any offers are to be considered.

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. After 3 years of restoration, the Quay also sees the welcome return of The Albatros (a former Dutch cargo ship) which is permanently moored and will reopen soon offering its own unique forms of hospitability. 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.
