Description
Beekeepers Cottage is a beautifully renovated end terrace period cottage and a real 'hidden gem' situated on a private yard of similar properties tucked away in a conservation area close to the Church and within walking distance of the town centre. The well proportioned light and airy accommodation retains a wealth of charm and a cosy cottage feel comprising an open plan kitchen/dining/living room downstairs and a landing leading to an en suite double bedroom upstairs. There is also the benefit of double glazed, hardwood sash windows, pamment tiled floor to the ground floor, stripped pine doors, gas-fired central heating and a wood burning stove.
Outside, there is a private parking space, an attractive courtyard garden immediately in front of the cottage and 2 further lawned and gravelled garden areas. An L-shaped outbuilding offers scope for conversion to a second en suite bedroom (subject to the necessary consents) with a further 2 outside stores, 1 with utility facilities.
Beekeepers Cottage is a much loved second home and successful holiday lettings business for the current owners and all furniture, fixtures and fittings are available by separate negotiation.
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.
