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.

GROUND FLOOR

A twin light panelled front door leads to an entrance hall with staircase rising to the first floor and a door leading to the bright and spacious living room with window to front, fireplace and understairs storage cupboard. To the rear is the kitchen, which does require re-fitting, a lobby giving access to the rear garden and the ground floor bathroom, again requiring updating.

FIRST FLOOR

Off the first floor landing there are two bedrooms to front and rear, although bedroom one is currently sub-divided by a partition wall into two rooms, one without natural light. Bedroom two overlooks the rear garden.

OUTSIDE

The property benefits from a generous plot with mature rear garden, which does require a degree of cultivation and side gravel garden providing off road parking for a number of vehicles. There is scope for extending the current accommodation, subject to the required consents, but it should be noted that number 18 has a pedestrian right of way across the rear of number 20 and this will need to be taken account of.
