Location
A popular new development centred around the Keward Brook wildlife corridor on the outskirts of Wells, conveniently placed for both the city centre and the beautiful Somerset countryside and there are excellent opportunities for walking nearby.
 
Auckland Close is on the southern side of the City and in lovely quiet location at the end of a quiet cul de sac and is well positioned adjacent to parkland with a beautiful open outlook and lots of privacy. Very close by are access points to a huge network of footpaths which range across the beautiful surrounding countryside including meadows, hills and woodland. Sports facilities, play areas and a tennis club at Cathedral Park are 5 mins walk away.
 
Description
The house provides exceptionally generous and well-planned accommodation, with a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, together with four double bedrooms, four bathrooms and a double garage. Built by Crest Nicholson in 2018, the property is presented as a comfortable and highly practical family home and is offered for sale with no onward chain.

Accommodation
The front door opens into a welcoming central hall, with the staircase rising to the first floor and a useful storage cupboard beneath. To one side is a study, ideal for those working from home, together with a large ground-floor shower room. The study and shower room could be be used as occasional guest or additional bedroom accommodation if required.

Beyond the hall is the fabulous open-plan kitchen, dining and family room. A wonderfully generous and sociable space, well suited to everyday family life and entertaining.

The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of matching wall and floor units, with integrated appliances including a double electric oven, gas hob, microwave and dishwasher. Double glazed patio doors open directly onto the west facing rear garden.

Adjoining the kitchen is a useful utility room, providing additional storage and practical space. There is also a separate sitting room with good proportions, again with patio doors opening onto the garden and providing an easy connection between the house and outside space.

Upstairs, a particularly spacious landing gives access to four double bedrooms.

The principal bedroom is an impressive generous proportioned room, positioned above the double garage. It includes a large walk-in dressing area and a well-appointed en-suite shower room.

The second bedroom is another excellent double room and has the unusual advantage of its own dressing or study area, together with a further en-suite shower room.

There are two additional double bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom completing the first-floor accommodation.

Outside
To the front, a driveway provides off-road parking for two vehicles and leads to the attached double garage. The garage has two up-and-over doors, light and power, together with a door opening to the rear.

The enclosed rear garden is principally laid to lawn and includes a generous paved terrace immediately adjoining the house. There is ample room for outdoor furniture, making the garden particularly well suited to summer dining and entertaining.

The house is tucked away within a small cul-de-sac towards the edge of the development, enjoying a more open aspect with green space beyond and easy access to the surrounding countryside.

P.S. 
A few extra comments.
Mortgages – we can help. 
Bridging loans – We can help.
Moving house is complicated and stressful when a sale and purchase needs to be tied together in terms of finance and timing.
Sometimes we can negotiate an agreement to suit both sellers and buyers.
Sometimes a bridging loan can solve problems and remove stress.
