Description

Property Description: Guide Price: £400,000 - £425,000. Occupying a peaceful position within a residential cul-de-sac on the southern side of Wells, this exceptionally well maintained detached bungalow is complemented by beautiful landscaped gardens.

A neatly tended front garden frames the approach and creates an attractive first impression. Upon entering the property, all the rooms can be accessed from the main hallway. To the right is the dual aspect sitting room with excellent natural light and a back-lit, fire effect electric fireplace with the potential to reconnect to gas. From here a door leads through to the dining room with French doors out to the garden patio, ideal for summer entertaining. The kitchen, positioned to the rear of the property and accessed via the main hallway and dining room, is fitted with a range of white units and includes an electric hob, a double oven and a washing machine and has a back door out to the garden.

There are three bedrooms off the hallway, two well-proportioned doubles and a versatile single bedroom currently used as a home office. The principal bedroom features floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobes with sliding doors, while the second double bedroom has a pleasant outlook across the rear garden. The bathroom has been updated to a shower room with a walk-in shower and is finished with marble-effect tiling, built-in storage and a heated towel rail.

Outside: The front and rear gardens have been thoughtfully designed to minimise maintenance whilst retaining year-round visual appeal. To the front, there is a range of topiary bushes and two pear trees interspersed with cobbles and shards of Cornish blue slate. The fully enclosed rear garden has a high degree of privacy, it combines granite gravel and decorative North Sea pebbles with established trees, shrubs and carefully maintained planting. A pergola seating area is a pleasant setting to sit and relax, while the easterly aspect captures the morning sun. There is a garage and driveway with parking for an additional car and gated access to the rear of the property. Subject to the necessary planning consents, there is the potential to extend or adapt the property to create additional living space.

Location: The property is a level walk to Wells High Street, the bustling Market Place and the Cathedral. This historic city has a range of local amenities with four supermarkets, a cinema, leisure centre, numerous coffee shops, pubs and restaurants to choose from, several dentists and doctors, some fabulous independent shops and even some art shops for those seeking something a little different. There are also famous historical landmarks such as the Cathedral and Bishop's Palace, as well as the popular twice weekly produce market and Cedars Hall offering a range of cultural events throughout the year. There are excellent state schools in the vicinity, including Stoberry Park School, St Cuthbert's C of E Junior School, St Joseph and St Teresa Catholic Primary School and The Blue School as well as independent schools including Wells Cathedral School. The towns of Glastonbury, Street and Shepton Mallet are all close by and the cities of Bath and Bristol are within easy reach both by car and by public transport. Bristol International Airport is less than 30 minutes away by car and Castle Cary Mainline station (12 miles) provides excellent rail links to London Paddington.
