This extended three-bedroom dormer bungalow has been fully renovated throughout and is ready to move into. The open-plan kitchen/dining/living extension creates a bright, sociable heart to the house, while the large driveway and wraparound garden suit families who need parking and outdoor space. Its short walk to Wells city centre brings shops, schools and amenities within easy reach.
Accommodation is arranged over two levels: two ground-floor bedrooms and a generous family bathroom, with a further double bedroom and shower room on the upper floor beneath Velux windows. Practical additions include an integrated modern kitchen, utility room, built-in storage in the dormer bedroom and newly installed double glazing.
Be aware of a few trade-offs: the property relies on electric room heaters rather than a central gas system, which can mean higher running costs. The immediate area is classified as more deprived and local services reflect a mixed socio-economic profile. Crime is described as average. Despite these points, the house’s recent full renovation, large plot, off-street parking and central location represent clear value for buyers seeking a ready-made family home in Wells.
Overall, this bungalow will suit buyers wanting move-in condition accommodation, generous outside space and easy access to local schools and the city centre. Investors seeking low-maintenance rental stock should note the electric heating and local area profile when calculating yields.
