Manning Close, Wells, Somerset, BA5

A desirably situated three bedroom semi-detached bungalow offering well-balanced accommodation, driveway parking, a garage and gardens to the front and rear. Available to purchase with no onward chain. Viewings by appointment. EPC rating D.


A door to the side of the bungalow opens into a central hall, which gives access to the majority of the accommodation and incorporates a built-in cupboard housing the boiler for the gas-fired central heating.

The sitting room is a generous size with a double glazed window to the front and a fireplace with an inset electric fire. There is space within the sitting room for a dining table and chairs; however, for those not requiring three bedrooms, the second bedroom (also at the front of the property) could be utilised as a separate dining room.

The master bedroom can be found at the rear of the bungalow and has two fitted wardrobes with matching drawers and bedside units. Bedroom three is located opposite the sitting room with a double glazed window to the side.

The bathroom comprises a coloured suite comprising a panelled bath with a shower over, a vanity wash hand basin and a low-level WC. Fitted with a range of wooden fronted floor and wall cupboards, the kitchen includes space for a freestanding electric cooker with a fixed extractor over. A door then continues through to an adjoining utility room at the back of the bungalow, a particularly useful space with plumbing for a washing machine, an additional sink unit and an external door to the garden.

OUTSIDE
To the front of the property is an area of garden, mainly laid to lawn with attractively planted borders. A driveway to the side provides off-road parking for numerous vehicles and leads to a single garage with an ‘up and over’ door to the front and further access to the side.

The rear garden is enclosed to all sides by fencing and is predominantly laid to patio for lower maintenance. There are sections of planted borders and established shrubs, as well as ample space for outdoor seating and dining.

The City of Wells is renowned for its beautiful architecture, including the Cathedral and the Bishop’s Palace. England’s smallest city, Wells, contains many clubs and societies for those wishing to get involved in the thriving local community.

There are excellent shopping facilities, a bustling High Street with both independent and well-known retailers, as well as various major supermarkets, including Waitrose. Wells also benefits from a busy, twice-weekly produce market in the Market Square. Bristol and Bath are readily accessible, as is Castle Cary to the south, which has the nearest mainline train station to London Paddington.

There is excellent schooling locally, both state and independent. The property is conveniently located within easy travelling distance of a number of local primary schools, as well as Wells Blue School (secondary). A local bus service is accessible from nearby Bath Road, as is the Budgens mini-supermarket, Post Office and fuel station.
