A substantial Victorian four-bedroom house in the heart of Wells, freshly renovated to combine period character with contemporary living. The ground floor offers a generous open-plan kitchen/diner/family room, separate sitting room with bay window, and a bright sunroom that overlooks the large, landscaped garden — a layout designed for family life and entertaining.
The principal bedroom occupies the attic level and includes an en-suite and extensive eaves storage, while three double bedrooms and a modern shower room sit on the first floor. Practical spaces include a boot room, separate utility and cloakroom. An outbuilding currently used as a home office/gym has planning permission to convert to a one-bedroom annexe, adding flexible accommodation or potential rental income.
Outside, the property sits behind a traditional stone wall with gravel drive providing off-street parking for several vehicles. The rear garden is wide and level with paved seating areas, lawn and a timber workshop. The house benefits from mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and an EPC rated D.
Notable considerations: the home sits in an area classified as relatively deprived and has average local crime and mobile signal levels. The older cavity wall construction is recorded as having no built-in insulation (assumed), which may affect running costs despite the recent renovation. Prospective buyers should note planning details for the outbuilding and verify council tax banding and any remaining warranty or survey findings during offer stage.
