Upon approaching, you are greeted by a central, covered front door that opens to a spacious and welcoming entrance hall with tiled flooring. The entrance hall provides a useful storage cupboard, as well as access to all of the ground floor rooms.

To the rear of the house, the kitchen/family room is a fantastic space for either dining or entertaining and is awash with natural sunlight from the triple aspect on offer, including twin French doors that both open out onto the garden. The kitchen has been well appointed with a stylish range of contemporary white units and contrasting Sile worktops and upstands.

Double doors open up into a cleverly concealed utility area which offers additional fitted units, a sink and space/plumbing for a washing machine.

Rising to the first floor, an attractive galleried landing with an oak bannister provides access to four, well presented and neutrally decorated double bedrooms, a spacious family bathroom and an airing cupboard. The master bedroom enjoys a dual aspect over the rear garden and boasts a walk-in dressing area complete with full-height, mirrored wardrobes, as well as an en-suite shower room and a fitted air conditioning unit. All bedrooms are of a very good, practical size, with the second bedroom also offering an en-suite shower room. Both en-suites comprise a modern white suite and attractive tiling. Similarly, the family bathroom also comprises a modern white bathroom suite and complementing white wall tiling.

Wand Road is on the southern side of the City and is a highly desirable, quiet residential location. The picturesque City of Wells offers a range of local amenities and shopping facilities with four supermarkets (including Waitrose), as well as twice-weekly markets, cinema, leisure centre, a choice of pubs and restaurants, dentists and doctors, several churches and both primary and secondary state schools. There are also many highly-regarded independent schools (Prep & Senior) within easy reach, such as All Hallows Prep School, Downside School, Wells Cathedral School and Millfield School. For those travelling by train, Castle Cary station (which has direct services to London Paddington) is situated only twelve miles away. Both the City of Bristol and the Georgian City of Bath, a World Heritage Site, are located just 20 miles away and easily accessible.

From the front, the property is approached via an attractive, block-paved shared driveway, which leads to the double garage with an electric door and provides ample off-road parking.

To the rear, there is a very attractive landscaped garden that enjoys a private, sunny westerly aspect. The garden is predominantly lawned with well-stocked planted borders and raised beds, as well as a sheltered patio seating area which immediately abuts the sitting room and kitchen/family room and makes a perfect area for al-fresco dining. Towards the far corner, the current owners have installed a greenhouse and summerhouse, which has the benefit of power and internet connection installed. A pedestrian door opens from the side garden into the double garage.
