Description
Property Description: Guide Price £280,000 - £290,000. Set on the popular east side of Wells, this immaculately presented two bed semi-detached bungalow offers single-story living with an open plan feel and an enclosed garden at the rear. The house is ideally placed a stone's throw away from local amenities and within easy walking distance of the historic city centre, while also enjoying close proximity to the rolling Somerset countryside - perfectly balancing rural life with the convenience of a vibrant, well-connected community.
Through the front door, the modern kitchen is beautifully bright where white cabinetry and granite style worktops create a clean, contemporary aesthetic. A dual electric oven and a ceramic hob are neatly integrated, with space for a fridge-freezer beneath the counter and plumbing for a washing machine. There is a storage cupboard near the front door to store coats and shoes and a part-glazed door opens to a passageway that leads to the rear garden. A half wall subtly delineates the kitchen from the adjacent sitting/dining room, allowing for a sense of openness without sacrificing valuable workspace. This living area faces south and is bathed in natural light throughout the day. At its heart stands a striking Chilli Penguin wood burner in charred red iron, set beneath a polished stainless steel flue - an eye-catching modern centrepiece that complements the home's minimal aesthetic.
Two double bedrooms lie at the rear of the property, both enjoying views of the rear garden and fitted with bespoke built-in storage. The second bedroom is currently configured as a study and has a half wall opening into the principal bedroom, offering flexibility of use. The bathroom is partly tiled and features a bath with overhead shower.
Outside: To the front, a gently sloping lawn, interspersed with trees and bordered by planting, sets the house back from the street. Stone steps ascend alongside the lawn to the front entrance, whilst a side gate opens to a pathway that runs the length of the house, leading to the enclosed rear garden.
At the rear, the garden unfolds across a gentle incline, composed of a central lawn framed by two paved terraces - each at a different level and connected by a run of stone steps. The upper terrace enjoys an elevated vantage point, ideal for alfresco dining, while the lower terrace offers a more sheltered corner to relax.
Ample on-street parking is available nearby.
Location: Situated on the popular east side of the picturesque city of Wells, this property is just a stones throw away from a Budgens convenience store with post office, banking and petrol, and is located half a mile walk away from the bustling high street and market place with twice weekly produce market. Despite being close to the city centre, the beautifully quite Somerset countryside is also within walking distance providing the best of both worlds. Less than a mile away, Wells Golf Club has a café and restaurant and just up the hill, the Rocky Mountain Nursery has an amazing fruit and vegetable stall every Thursday and Saturday.
The vibrant city centre provides a range of local amenities with three supermarkets (Waitrose being the closest), a cinema, leisure centre, numerous coffee shops, pubs and restaurants to choose from, several dentists and doctors, some fabulous independent shops and even some art shops for those seeking something a little different. There are also famous historical landmarks such as the Cathedral and Bishop's Palace, and the performing arts venue of Cedars Hall offers a range of cultural events throughout the year including concerts, festivals, exhibitions, films, talks and more.
There are excellent state schools in the vicinity: Stoberry Park School, St Cuthbert's CofE Junior School, St Joseph and St Teresa Catholic Primary School and The Blue School as well as independent schools including Wells Cathedral School on your doorstep. All Hallows Prep School, Downside and Millfield are just a short drive away.
Paray Place is on a bus route and the cities of Bath and Bristol are with easy reach. Bristol International Airport is 16 miles and there are main line rail links to London and the South West at Castle Cary (12m), Bristol and Bath. Less than 15 minutes away is the market town of Shepton Mallet and Street and Glastonbury are 20 minutes away.
