Full Description: A fabulous, detached house set in a quiet cul de sac situated just as you enter this very popular residential area close to the centre of Glastonbury and a short drive from the Cathedral City of Wells. The house has excellent, well-appointed accommodation, is immaculately presented throughout and is perhaps one of the best situated in this impressive residential area.

A bespoke smartly painted entrance door opens into a generous and light entrance hall with glazed doors leading off to the main reception rooms. There are two useful storage cupboards and “Karndean” Oak effect floor. A returning staircase sits centrally with an attractive stair runner and brushed chrome stair rods. Double doors open to the dining room and the study is off to the right. The attractive sitting room has French doors opening onto the garden and features a fireplace fitted with a gas fire for cosy convenience in the cooler months. The L-shaped kitchen is an incredibly versatile room which is designed for living, dining and cooking. It is the hub of the home and has been re-fitted by the current owner in a shaker style with black granite work surface and upstands with a ceramic sink. A bespoke floor to ceiling larder cupboard fitted with Oak shelving allows plenty of storage. Oak shelving and an “Aga Total Control”cooker complete the kitchen area. The dining and living area are bathed with light from all aspects with double doors opening to a patio area and garden.

On the first floor the spacious galleried landing leads to all the bedrooms. The master suite is a lovely size with an enviable dressing room leading to an ensuite shower room with double shower. The second bedroom has a lovely view over the meadow out the rear and also enjoys an en suite shower room and fitted double wardrobes. There are two further double bedrooms both with fitted double wardrobes. It is evident that the current owner has kept the property in beautifully immaculate order, it is light and airy with double glazing and gas central heating throughout. It is rare to find a house so well presented in such a welcoming yet contemporary style and viewing comes highly recommended.

Outside

Five bar gates open to a tarmac driveway which provides parking for 2/3 cars and gives access to a double garage. Lawned garden and attractive topiary hedging sit at the front of the house. The westerly facing rear garden is a sun trap and has been beautifully landscaped, French doors open from the kitchen and sitting room onto a patio for entertaining. Set over two levels there are areas of lawn and flower beds planted in a cottage style with an abundance of perennials and roses. Brick steps lead to a further area of garden again with carefully planted flower beds and a natural hedgerow backing onto the adjoining meadow. A summerhouse sits prettily at the top of the garden with vegetable beds neatly tucked behind the garage.

Situation Watts Corner is a well-established residential area dating back to around 2006 and being quietly approached from the Old Wells Road. There are conditions in place to protect the environment and other properties situated on the development. There are communal green areas and with a service and maintenance programme in place to which the properties there contribute, Watts Corner always looks immaculate.

Glastonbury's past and its present are linked with its dominant landmark, the Tor. It's been a religious centre throughout history and back into the times of legends. There was a Celtic monastery here by 500 AD which, in the next 1000 years evolved into one of England's wealthiest and most influential abbeys. The town grew up alongside the Abbey and by the 18th century had received a charter and had become a manufacturing and trading centre. Today it's a small but thriving town and a major tourist venue, welcoming thousands of visitors each year. Medieval Glastonbury - designated a conservation area - clusters around the evocative ruins of the Abbey. The town offers a wide variety of amenities to cater for shopping in the High Street and local supermarkets close by. Just 5 miles from Glastonbury is Wells which is the smallest city in England (population 10,000). The bus route to Wells and Bristol is a short walk from Watts Corner. The centre of Wells is the marketplace (local markets twice a week) surrounded by many medieval buildings including the Cathedral and moated Bishops Palace. Immediately to the south (2 miles) of Glastonbury is the more recent town of Street and these centres provide a huge range of facilities and amenities.

Schools There are excellent local schools to cater for infants through to secondary education with higher education available at the nearby Strode College. The private sector includes Millfield, Wells Cathedral School, Downside, All Hallows and the Bruton schools. About 12 miles southeast is Castle Cary station with a main rail line to London.

Directions Follow the road from Wells to Glastonbury. At the “Tinbridge” roundabout take the “Old Wells Road” past the West Mendip Community Hospital. Take the turning on your right into Watts Corner. Take the first turning left and the property can be found on the right hand side. What 3 words:- puppy.beginning.earmarked
