Location
Set just off the end of the High Street in a central yet protected and secure area. Wells is the smallest city in England and offers a vibrant high street with a variety of independent shops and restaurants as well as a twice-weekly market and a choice of four supermarkets including Waitrose. Amenities include a leisure centre, independent cinema and a theatre. Bristol and Bath lie c.22 miles to the north and north-east respectively, each with mainline train stations. Castle Cary station
(c.11 miles away) also provides a regular direct service to London Paddington. Bristol International Airport is c.15 miles to the north-west. Wells bus station is less than 5 minutes’ walk from the property.
Directions
On foot from the offices of Holland & Odam, cross the road and turn left following the High Street towards St. Cuthbert’s church. Turn right into Priest Row where one of the entrances to King Alfreds Courtyard can be found on the right just beyond the two shops.
Material Information
Identity Verification
To ensure full compliance with current legal requirements, all buyers are required to verify their identity and risk status in line with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations before we can formally proceed with the sale. This process includes a series of checks covering identity verification, politically exposed person (PEP) screening, and AML risk assessment for each individual named as a purchaser. In addition, for best practice, we are required to obtain proof of funds and where necessary, to carry out checks on the source of funds being used for the purchase. These checks are mandatory and must be completed regardless of whether the purchase is mortgage-funded, cash, or part of a related transaction. A disbursement of £49 per individual (or £75 per director for limited company purchases) is payable to cover all aspects of this compliance process. This fee represents the full cost of conducting the required checks and verifications. You will receive a secure payment link and full instructions directly from our compliance partner, Guild365, who carry out these checks on our behalf.
