Semi-detached house for sale in Wells BA5, 3 Bedroom

A deceptively spacious period house of character and charm with the added advantage of a double garage and south-facing courtyard garden. Offering flexible accommodation over two floors the property is offered for sale with no onward chain. Definitely needs to be viewed to be appreciated.

Accommodation

Ground Floor

The front door leads into an entrance lobby with a cloaks cupboard and gives access to a dining room with feature fireplace and arched recess and also to the sitting room with a log burning stove set within the fireplace. Stairs run off this room to the first floor and there is a useful understairs cupboard as well as a flagstone floor.

Off the dining room is a generous dining kitchen with a good range of wall and base units with electric oven and hob and a gas fired combination boiler supplying central heating and hot water. From the kitchen is a lean-to utility area with Belfast sink and plumbing for washing machine and access to a ground floor W.C. A terracotta tiled floor runs through the kitchen, utility and cloakroom.

First Floor

On the first floor there is a master bedroom overlooking a lawned area to the front of the property. The second double bedroom has a feature fireplace and also gives access to the third bedroom and the family bathroom. With some adjustment this corridor bedroom could be divided off to provide a private bedroom but our client has also contemplated using it as a further reception room.

Please note that the majority of windows are double glazed and that the property is neither Listed nor in a conservation area.

Outside

A path way runs over the adjoining property giving access from Bath Road to Number 34. The courtyard garden to the far side of the property enjoys a southerly aspect and is easily maintained. There is a herb bed and a gravelled seating area with a high stone wall to the west. Beyond this area via a gate is a double detached garage with twin up and over doors. The garage is approached via a private road from Johnson Close and Woodbury Avenue.
