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

Offered for sale with onward chain, Jowsers is a rare opportunity to purchase a modern mid terrace house built in the traditional brick and flint style in a convenient location within walking distance of the Quay and the centre of the seaside town of Wells-next-the-Sea.  The property has ground floor accommodation briefly comprising a porch, sitting/dining room and a kitchen/breakfast room with a rear lobby leading to a conservatory and cloakroom.  Upstairs, the landing leads to 2 bedrooms and a bathroom with further benefits including gas-fired central heating and double glazed windows and doors.

Outside, there are low maintenance gardens to the front and rear of the property plus the all too rare benefit of an allocated parking space this close to the town centre.

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.

Mains water, mains drainage and mains electricity. Gas-fired central heating. EPC Rating Band D.
