Market Lane, Wells-next-the-Sea, NR23

19 Market lane is a well-proportioned link detached family house situated on a popular road on the outskirts of the seaside town of Wells-next-the-Sea and within walking distance of the town's amenities.

The property would now benefit from some light refurbishment with ground floor accommodation comprising a porch, entrance hall, kitchen/breakfast room with a separate utility, shower room, dining room, sitting room and conservatory.  Upstairs, the landing leads to 3 bedrooms and a well appointed shower room.  Further benefits include UPVC double glazing throughout, timber internal doors, gas-fired central heating with a gas fire in the sitting room and parquet flooring to many of the rooms.

Outside, the property stands set back from the road behind a brickweave driveway proving parking for several vehicles and leading to the attached garage with an attractive garden to the rear.

19 Market Lane 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. 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.
