Kings Castle Road, Wells, BA5

DESCRIPTION

On the market for the first time since it was built in 1967, is this extended semi-detached bungalow. This deceptively spacious property benefits from three bedrooms, sitting room, kitchen, large dining/family room and bathroom. Along with detached garage with electric door, ample parking and delightful enclosed rear gardens. The property is offered to the market with NO ONWARD CHAIN.

Upon entering is an 'L' shaped hall with a shelved airing cupboard which houses the hot water cylinder. From the hall a glazed door opens to the bright sitting room, with space for comfortable furniture, picture window overlooking the front gardens and a fireplace, with wooden surround and inset gas fire, as the focal point. The kitchen, with side aspect, features a range of cabinets, stainless steel sink and 'Glow worm' wall mounted boiler.  Within the kitchen is space for a washing machine, undercounter fridge, freezer and freestanding cooker.  A brick arch leads through to the spacious dining/family room.  This marvellous room, with wall lights, was added in 1986 and offers space for both a large dining table and comfortable furniture. French doors (a later addition) open out to the attractive enclosed rear gardens.  

The principal bedroom is a good sized double with built-in wardrobes, built-in dressing table and window looking out to the rear garden.  The second bedroom is double in size and has a coved ceiling and a window to the front.  The third bedroom is single in size with coved ceiling and window to the side.  The fully tiled bathroom comprises a bath with overhead shower, vanity basin and hidden cistern WC.

OUTSIDE

The enclosed east facing garden is a good size and benefits from the sun throughout the day.  The attractive gardens have been well-tended over the years and are notably private. Accessed from the dining/family room is a paved patio with raised borders and space for outdoor furniture and entertaining. To the side is a gravelled area, ideal for pots or further planting. From the patio, steps lead up to an area of lawn with a small central tree and borders of mature shrubs, trees and flowering plants. At the far end of the garden is a further gravelled area with space for outdoor furniture. Between the property and the garage is path, outside tap and a gate to the front drive.

The front garden is mainly laid to lawn with hedging, borders of mature shrubs, central shrub and gravelled area offering space for pots, if desired. The front drive, with parking for four cars, in tandem, leads to the detached single garage with electric door, power and light.  Adjacent to the garage is a full height pedestrian gate leading to the rear garden.
