Jicklings Yard, Wells-next-the-Sea, NR23

The Sackhouse is located adjacent to The Maltings in the heart of Wells-next-the-Sea and historically served as the site where sacks used in the port and malting processes were woven and repaired over 200 years ago. As part of The Maltings Regeneration Project, this historic building has been thoughtfully restored and repurposed to support the growth of local SMEs, start-ups, and provide valuable community space in Wells-next-the-Sea.

This first floor office accommodation is now available to let on a new lease, with terms to be agreed.  The quoted rent includes heating, lighting and access to the building’s communal facilities but the tenant will be responsible for Business Rates.  Please note: the quoted rent is exclusive of VAT, which is applicable at the standard rate of 20%.

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.

The rent includes electricity (with electric radiator heating installed) and broadband connection.  EPC Rating Band B.
