Description
About the property.
Carlton Court is a popular retirement complex within the conservation area and in the heart of Wells. It is literally a stones’ throw and level walk from the Market Place, Bishop’s Palace and Cathedral.
This purpose-built development for the over 55’s has a House Manager and a 24 hour emergency Careline response system. There are safe and secure walled gardens, parking, communal lounge and a guest suite. Carlton Court has 32 leasehold properties arranged over 3 floors, each served by a lift. The apartment has a good position within this sought-after development.
Carlton Court is approached through its own landscaped courtyard (with parking) and a secure entrance with intercom system that leads into the main reception hall. A lift from the reception hall leads to number 12 which is on the first floor with almost all windows facing in a south westerly direction giving the apartment plenty of natural light. It is heated by electric night storage.
About the inside.
We enter the apartment into the hall which has 2 good-size storage cupboards, one of which contains the hot water tank. To the far end, the spacious lounge/diner is flooded with natural light and a glazed hatch links the kitchen which is accessed from the hall. The kitchen is well appointed with a fitted oven, electric hob and microwave. There is a freestanding fridge/freezer and washing machine, and there is room for a breakfast table if desired. The fitted units offer plenty of cupboard and work surface.
There is a stainless steel sink, fitted electric oven, hob, extractor, fridge/freezer and washing machine. There are 2 bedrooms, the larger one has a good-size double wardrobe and the smaller bedroom has a single fitted wardrobe. The bathroom has a walk-in bath, which is equipped with a ‘Bath Knight’ electric bath-lift, wash hand basin and mirror over, wc, electric towel rail and wall heater.
Carlton Court has safe and secure walled gardens that are beautifully
planted with many mature shrubs and flowers that give lots of scent and colour throughout the year.
About the area.
Carlton Court is found in an enviable location right in the heart of Wells itself and therefore within a few yards walk of the Market Square and bustling High Street.
Wells itself has a superb range of amenities including many independent shops, cafes, theatre, banks, a cinema, leisure centre and a popular twice weekly market.
The nearby Georgian city of Bath and the regional centre of Bristol are also within easy commuting distance, while Castle Cary Station, with links to London Paddington and Exeter, is a 12-mile drive away. Bristol International Airport is only 17 miles.
