Warham Road, Wells-next-the-Sea, NR23

Slinmoor is an outstanding opportunity to acquire a detached 4 bedroom, 2 reception room property which requires updating situated on the edge of Wells-next-the-Sea with the rare benefit of elevated views across the rooftops of the town and out to the sea in the distance.  Few properties in the town are lucky enough to combine spacious flexible accommodation, attractive south facing gardens, garage, conservatory, ample space for boat and caravan storage and, of course, panoramic views.

A particular feature of Slinmore are the large, mature and well stocked gardens which amount to approximately 0.3 acre (subject to survey), back south and offer a degree of privacy. To the front is a wide, private, gravel covered driveway with neat lawn, inset trees and mature hedging. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with deep, well stocked borders, there is an extensive patio to the rear of the property and there are useful outbuildings including an integral garage, shed and greenhouse.

Slinmoor is being offered for sale with vacant possession and no onward chain.

Wells-next-the-Sea has been a commercial and fishing port for nearly 600 years and still supports a thriving fishing fleet bringing in a catch of, predominantly, shellfish 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 extensive sandy beach is often ranked as one of the top 10 in the country by travel journals. Set against a backdrop of Corsican pinewoods, the stunning beach is home to the much publicised, iconic colourful beach huts, which are available to buy or can be rented 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 speciality food stores. For entertainment, the recently opened Wells Maltings offers live entertainment and exhibitions, whilst alongside the Quay, are all the usual popular traditional seaside attractions. 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 cottage hospital providing a range of accessible and integrated health and well-being services.

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