A bright and spacious period property located in a conservation area on the outskirts of Wells.

Summary

The house offers a generous entrance hall, cloakroom, sitting room/dining room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms and a family shower room.

Outside there is a very attractive south/west facing courtyard to the front and parking.

Location

This is a popular residential area on the eastern side of Wells. Made up of a number of large Victorian buildings in extensive mature grounds. These have been developed into individual period properties of great character and charm, interspersed with well-lit footpaths, quiet roads and gardens which combines to create an attractive, tranquil and secure environment.
The house is convenient for the Wells Golf Club and Wells and Horrington Cricket club which provides a central village green with its cricket pitch. All around are rolling hills and woodlands perfect for easy walks. The centre of Wells is under 2miles away.

Description

The original buildings were designed by the eminent Victorian architect Sir George Gilbert Scott. He was a key member of the British Gothic Revival and designed many well known public structures such as the Home Office, Albert Memorial, St Pancras Station and Glasgow University. Scott's Church of St Nicholas in Hamburg was at one stage the tallest building in the world. Scott also directed much Gothic restoration work, including renovations to Ely Cathedral and Westminster Abbey. St Thomas House is part of the original Chapel of the 19th century Mendip Hospital and continues as a significant building, in its own right.

Accommodation

The front door opens to a bright and spacious hallway. Ahead is a downstairs cloakroom and understairs cupboard. To the left, half glazed doors open to a double aspect sitting room/dining room. This has fully glazed French doors to an enclosed south facing courtyard. To the right is the kitchen which has recently been refurbished with sleek white units. There is an electric hob, eyelevel oven and space for a washing machine and fridge/freezer.

Upstairs there is large bright landing, 2 bedrooms, a family shower room and a large airing cupboard. Both bedrooms have built in wardrobes. There is currently a stair lift in place however, this will be removed if it is not required by the new owner.

Outside
