Description

Situated on historical St. Thomas Street, in the idyllic city of Wells, we present a versatile freehold property with two bedrooms in the main house plus a self-contained annex. Known as England's smallest city, Wells is a marvel of splendid medieval architecture and vivacious community spirit. A hub of history and culture, the city is home to Wells Cathedral, an architectural wonder that sets an impressive backdrop for this charming address. Infused with a slice of history, 53a St. Thomas Street provides more than just a home; it is a gateway to the richer experiences of life.

Step into this home, where a blend of cosiness and spaciousness awaits. The main house offers a ground floor with a generous living/dining room, a kitchen, utility room, and a downstairs WC. On the first floor, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms, with the main bedroom benefitting from an en-suite, along with a family bathroom.

The annex provides further independent accommodation with its own entrance. The ground floor features a kitchen/living room, a shower room, and a compact kitchenette. Upstairs, a double bedroom completes the annex, making it ideal for extended family, guests, or as an income-generating rental.

On-street parking is available nearby, while the home benefits from storage heaters for warmth throughout the year.

Despite its tranquil setting, this property is at the heart of a vibrant local scene. A casual walk would lead you to local shops for daily essentials, a myriad of cafes, restaurants catering to diverse tastes, and the tranquil Bishop's Palace and Gardens. Royal Oak, The Globe, and India House Restaurant are local favourites merely steps away for delicious meals. For a deeper appreciation of the outdoors, a scenic drive through the Somerset countryside is a must.

Getting around is a breeze, thanks to convenient transport links. The nearest motorway, M5, can be reached within 26 miles. Castle Cary, the closest train station, is a 25-minute drive away via the A371. Bristol Airport, about 18 miles away, serves as the local international gateway. Situated just 8 minutes from the city centre, 53a St. Thomas Street makes for easy access to bustling cities like Bath and Bristol, each only an hour's drive away.
