Summary - 2 The Courtyard, Union Street BA5 2PU
2 bed 2 bath Terraced
Period charm with modern fittings and private parking moments from Wells High Street.
Grade II listed townhouse with original flagstone floors and exposed stonework
Tucked just off Wells High Street, this newly renovated Grade II listed townhouse combines genuine period character with modern convenience. Original features — flagstone floors, exposed stonework, painted dresser and former bread ovens — give warmth and history, while a high-quality kitchen with granite worktops and Bosch appliances makes daily life effortless. The sitting room opens via French doors to a peaceful shared courtyard; allocated off-street parking is a rare city-centre bonus.
The house offers two generous double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite, plus useful storage and a loft with potential for extension subject to listed-building and planning consents. The property is held on a long lease with share of freehold and an annual service charge of £960 covering buildings insurance and communal maintenance.
Buyers should note material constraints: listed status will affect alterations and the property sits in a conservation area, which can complicate changes and extensions. There is a medium flooding risk and the immediate area records higher crime levels than average. Holiday-let use is restricted and pets require permission from the management company.
Overall, this is a characterful, low-maintenance home in a superb central location for someone seeking a compact, historic townhouse with modern fittings and private parking, who is comfortable with conservation restrictions and shared-management arrangements.
