Set on a peaceful cul-de-sac and backing onto school playing fields, this detached two-bedroom bungalow offers single-floor living just half a mile from Wells-next-the-Sea town centre. The layout includes an L-shaped hall, kitchen, sitting/dining room, two bedrooms (one with en suite) and a family bathroom — all arranged for easy, low-maintenance living. Solar panels and gas central heating help reduce running costs; EPC rating C and Council Tax Band C add practical reassurance.
Outside, a south-facing rear lawn, gravelled front garden, driveway and attached garage with remote roller door create a straightforward, low-upkeep plot ideal for gardeners who prefer light maintenance or owners who value outside space without a large workload. The bungalow is chain-free and freehold, simplifying purchase for downsizers and those relocating to the coast.
Practical drawbacks to note: broadband speeds in the area are slow, which may affect home working or streaming without a specialist provider; while the property appears well maintained, it follows a traditional, mid-century layout and therefore may not suit buyers seeking fully open-plan or highly contemporary interiors. The neighbourhood skews older and is classified as an ageing rural area — attractive for retirees but less lively for those seeking a bustling social scene.
Wells-next-the-Sea itself is a strong draw: quality local schools rated Good, a recognised seaside and harbour with fishing and leisure amenities, and a popular sandy beach with iconic beach huts. Mobile signal is excellent and the town offers local healthcare, cultural venues and shops within easy reach, making this bungalow a practical, peaceful base for coastal living.
