Chain-free two-bed flat with parking and park-like communal grounds.
Grade II listed conversion with character features
Set within a Grade II listed former hospital, this ground-floor two-bedroom flat overlooks park-like communal grounds and a cricket pitch. The apartment offers character features such as a central feature bay window and high ceilings, plus an allocated parking space and visitor bays — rare conveniences in a village setting. Offered chain-free, it is an immediate purchase opportunity for a buyer wanting a compact home near Wells or an investor seeking a rental asset.
The flat has been a long-term rental and would benefit from moderate refurbishment and general TLC: dated decor, single-glazed sash windows and some signs of neglect are present. The property is leasehold (service charge c. £2,303 pa; ground rent £75 pa) and its listed status will restrict certain alterations and may complicate works. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average.
At about 603 sq ft the accommodation is modest — suitable for a first-time buyer, small household or let as a lock-up-and-leave second home. Practical positives include an internal layout with an entrance hall and airing cupboard, fitted kitchen with washing machine plumbing, bathroom, and communal entrance with entry phone. The grounds and village location, close to Wells and within reach of Bath and Bristol, provide a strong lifestyle draw.
Buyers should budget for refurbishment and factor in listed-building restrictions before committing. For someone prepared to update the interior within the constraints of a listed conversion, this property offers character, convenience and no onward chain.
