BA5 2US
1 bed 1 bath Terraced
Compact period home with courtyard and cathedral view, ideal for buyers seeking renovation potential.
One double bedroom with plenty of built-in storage
A compact period cottage set a short walk from Wells city centre, this one-bedroom terraced house combines character features with clear scope to add value. The sitting room retains exposed beams and a feature fireplace, and the bedroom enjoys storage, exposed beams and a view of Wells Cathedral. A sunny, walled courtyard garden extends to about 35' (10.66m), arranged on two levels for privacy.
The property is chain free and offered freehold, making it suitable for a first-time buyer or investor prepared to update. There is scope to increase first-floor accommodation subject to the necessary permissions, offering genuine potential to improve living space and resale value. Broadband speeds are fast and local amenities — shops, markets and schools — are all within easy walking distance.
Buyers should note the cottage needs renovation and modernisation throughout; internal rooms are compact with relatively low ceilings. It sits within a Conservation Area, so any alterations will need consent. Parking is on-street under a residents' scheme and the property sits in a medium flood-risk area — these are important practical considerations for prospective purchasers.
Overall this is a characterful, well-located town property with practical renovation potential for someone wanting to personalise a city-centre home or add value as an investment.
