3 bedroom end of terrace house for sale

Property Description: Guide Price: £400,000 - £425,000. Tucked away in a quiet and highly desirable position on the eastern side of Wells, this delightful three bedroom period cottage has a wonderful blend of character, space and future potential, all within walking distance of the city’s historic Market Place.

The entrance porch opens into the lobby area which is an ideal space for a desk or study corner. From here, steps descend into the well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with classic white shaker-style cabinetry, granite worktops and a range of integrated appliances including a Neff cooker, dishwasher and under-counter refrigeration. A window overlooks the garden, creating a light and sociable heart to the home.

Adjoining the kitchen is an impressive sitting room of generous proportions, rich in character with exposed beams, a wood burning stove, bespoke shelving and a charming window seat. A glazed door opens directly onto the Limestone flagged paving that runs across the front of the cottage with the pretty garden beyond.

A large utility room provides excellent additional space, with scope to incorporate a downstairs cloakroom if desired. The boiler, installed approximately three years ago, adds to the home’s practical appeal.

Upstairs, three well-sized, double bedrooms have lovely views over the garden, each enhanced by traditional ledge and brace doors with wrought iron latches. The family bathroom is fitted with a white suite with a shower over the bath, complemented by a useful built-in cupboard on the landing, ideal for linen or wardrobe storage.

From the landing, steps lead up to the attic room, where a Velux window frames delightful views towards Wells Cathedral and Tor Woods. This space has exciting potential for conversion into an additional bedroom, subject to the necessary consents.

Outside: The property is set within a charming, enclosed garden bordered by stone walls, mature shrubs and trees. A paved path leads from North Grove, where there is ample on-street parking. A timber shed provides useful storage, and there is further potential, subject to planning, to create private parking within the garden itself.

A rare opportunity to acquire a characterful cottage with scope for enhancement, in one of Wells’ most sought-after and convenient locations.

Location: The property is accessed from North Grove just off North Road and there is pedestrian access from St Thomas Street which is on East side of the city within walking distance of Wells High Street, the bustling Market Place and the Cathedral. This historic city provides a range of local amenities with four supermarkets (Waitrose being the closest), a cinema, leisure centre, numerous coffee shops, pubs and restaurants to choose from, several dentists and doctors, some fabulous independent shops and even some art shops for those seeking something a little different.

There are excellent state schools in the vicinity, including Stoberry Park School, St Cuthbert's CofE Junior School, St Joseph and St Teresa Catholic Primary School and The Blue School as well as independent schools including Wells Cathedral School on your doorstep. The towns of Glastonbury, Street and Shepton Mallet are all close by and the Cities of Bath and Bristol are within easy reach both by car and by public transport.
