Full Description: A spacious, semi-detached Victorian house with versatile accommodation arranged over three floors. Garage and useful outbuilding. Level, easily-maintained garden. Tucked away in a quiet location yet only a short walk to the High Street. No onward chain. <br /> <br /><b>Accommodation</b> <br />A substantial five-bedroom Victorian semi-detached house, quietly tucked away in the heart of Wells, enjoying both peace and a superbly central location. Facing west and south, the house is full of natural light, with high ceilings and well-proportioned rooms on the principal floors. <br /> <br />Approached via a shared driveway, the house opens into an eat-in kitchen centred around a range cooker. Beyond is a dining room leading to the sitting room, which enjoys a double aspect and fireplace. <br /> <br />The first floor is particularly well balanced, with high ceilings, good light and an easy sense of proportion. A double bedroom, currently a television and reading room, looks out over the garden, while the principal bedroom has its own en suite and adjoining dressing room/study/nursery. <br /> <br />The top floor stands apart, with three loft rooms and two shower rooms, a particularly appealing arrangement for guests staying with a little privacy, as well as for study space, home working, or older children wanting some independence. On a clear day, there are glimpses of Glastonbury Tor. <br /> <br /><b>Outside</b> <br />Outside, the level west-facing garden wraps around three sides of the house, sheltered and easy to maintain, with a rear pedestrian gate. There is also a garage with electric door and a useful outbuilding. Offered with no onward chain, the property presents real scope for updating and calm, spacious living in the heart of Wells. <br /> <br /><b>Location</b> <br />Wells is the smallest city in England and offers a vibrant high street with a variety of independent shops and restaurants as well as a twice weekly market and a choice of supermarkets including Waitrose. Amenities include a leisure centre, independent cinema and a theatre. Bristol and Bath lie c.22 miles to the north and north-east respectively with mainline train stations to London at Castle Cary (c.11 miles) as well as Bristol and Bath.

This process includes a series of checks covering identity verification, politically exposed person (PEP) screening, and AML risk assessment for each individual named as a purchaser. In addition, for best practice, we are required to obtain proof of funds and where necessary, to carry out checks on the source of funds being used for the purchase. These checks are mandatory and must be completed regardless of whether the purchase is mortgage-funded, cash, or part of a related transaction. A disbursement of £49 per individual (or £75 per director for limited company purchases) is payable to cover all aspects of this compliance process. This fee represents the full cost of conducting the required checks and verifications. You will receive a secure payment link and full instructions directly from our compliance partner, Guild365, who carry out these checks on our behalf.
