Anseres Place, Wells, BA5

DESCRIPTION

Tucked away in an exclusive gated development, in the very heart of the city, just off the Market Place, is this beautifully presented first floor apartment. Converted in 2003, this spacious apartment has the perfect balance of character features and modern convenience. The communal courtyard style gardens are well-maintained with a water feature, an array of planting along with several seating areas and are an oasis of calm in the centre of this vibrant city. An allocated parking space can be accessed from the rear of the development.

An external wooden staircase leads to the first floor and to a secure entrance door, giving access to four apartments. Inside, the property can be found to the left on the first floor.

Upon entering the property is a generous entrance hall with wooden floor and two useful store cupboards. The first houses the electrical consumer unit and has plenty of space for day to day storage, the second offers additional storage space. At the far end is the main open plan living space. This bright and spacious room has original beams, wooden floor, and three large bay windows flooding the room with natural light. The room naturally divides into kitchen, dining and comfortable seating area. The kitchen with peninsula unit, is 'U' shaped and has wooden Shaker style units all topped with quartz worktops. There is plenty of storage along with fully integrated appliances including a dishwasher, washing machine and under-counter fridge and freezer, along with a built-in electric oven and hob. Dividing the kitchen to sitting room, is space for a dining table to seat four to six people. The sitting area features a wooden fireplace with inset gas fire as the focal point, and to one side having bespoke fitted units.

The principal bedroom is a good size double with built-in mirrored wardrobes and an ensuite 'Jack and Jill' bathroom. The modern and recently fitted bathroom is fully tiled, comprising a bath, shower cubicle, WC and vanity wash basin along with underfloor heating and built-in storage. The second bedroom, again a good sized double, is a bright room with a window overlooking the gardens.

OUTSIDE

From the Market Place, a secure glazed oak door leads to the communal gardens with an attractive mix of flagstone and cobbled paving, raised beds of mature planting, a fishpond with water feature and several seating areas. A cobbled footpath, with outdoor lighting, leads through the gardens to the rear of the development where there is an allocated parking space. The parking space is accessed via electric gates from Carlton Mews, just off of South Street.

An external staircase leads from the gardens to the first floor and a secure communal door leading to four apartments.
