A well-presented Victorian mid-terrace close to Wells-next-the-Sea Quay, Longview Cottage blends period charm with recent upgrades. Redesigned over three floors, the house offers flexible accommodation including a top-floor principal bedroom with en suite and long coastal views — a rare feature for a terraced cottage in this area. The current owners have upgraded the roof, electricals and fire prevention systems; the property is offered chain free and has an EPC rating of C.
The ground floor flows from a kitchen/breakfast area into an open-plan sitting and dining space, benefitting from contemporary finishes and slate flooring. Be aware the living/dining ceiling is relatively low and the space has shown potential for damp — a factor to inspect if you plan long-term residency. Broadband speeds in the area are slow, though mobile signal is excellent.
Outside, a small walled courtyard with decked balcony and spiral staircase provides a sheltered spot to enjoy elevated views over pinewoods to the sea. The cottage has been successfully run as a holiday let and would suit buyers seeking a second home, holiday income, or a permanent residence who value proximity to the quay, beach and local amenities.
Practical advantages include gas central heating to radiators, mains services, and proximity to well-rated local schools. The plot is small and street parking is on-road; the property is freehold and in a generally affluent, low-flood-risk area. Buyers should weigh the benefits of a turn-key, chain-free purchase against the compact plot, local broadband limits and the low ceilings in parts of the house.
