Offering bags of character and being located just off the High Street, this beautiful cottage makes for either a lovely family home, an ideal downsize or even a ‘lock up and leave’ for those seeking a bolthole within Wells. From the front entrance, a solid wooden door opens into an entrance vestibule with handy hanging space for coats and a stained glass door then leads you into the welcoming entrance hall with flagstone flooring. From here, a door to the rear leads out to the garden, with further panel doors leading off to the kitchen and sitting room on the right, and the dining room and snug on the left. Stripped wooden stairs also rise to the first floor.
On the ground floor, there is plenty of living space afforded by way of three reception rooms, the kitchen and a ground floor shower room. The main sitting room enjoys a front aspect and boasts a splendid feature fireplace with exposed stone surround, parquet floor and a feature glazed cupboard, as well as a further store area reputed to have been a Garderobe to the original build. Both of the other reception rooms similarly have feature fireplaces, sash windows and a very pleasant feel. The kitchen is fitted with a gas-fired Rayburn oven, a range of wall, base and display units, worktops which further incorporate a two-ring gas hob and electric oven. Off the kitchen is a useful larder cupboard and a handy wet room/utility room with shower facilities, w/c and wash basin. There is also a tiled floor and walls, fitted work surfaces and plumbing for a washing machine.
On the first floor, the landing offers lovely stripped wooden flooring and an eye-catching stained glass window to the side aspect and overhead exposed beams. The main bedroom has been opened up from what was previously two bedrooms (both doors from the landing remain in place) and now provides a very generous bedroom, with an outlook to the front aspect, as well as an original feature fireplace. There are two further double bedrooms, one boasting a feature fireplace and stripped wooden flooring, and a generous four piece white bathroom suite, comprising a shower over the double-ended bath, a w/c, wash hand basin and bidet, along with a chrome ladder style towel heater, airing cupboard, wiled walls and feature fireplace. The majority of the windows throughout the property have been secondary glazed, whilst the central heating and hot water is provided via the gas fired Rayburn.
The property is conveniently located on St John Street, which is situated just off Broad Street and the High Street and within walking distance of all the amenities on offer. 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. Bristol International Airport is c.15 miles to the northwest. Of particular note is the variety of well-regarded schools in both the state and private sectors in Wells and the surrounding area.
To the rear of the property, there is a very pleasant cottage style walled garden with a stream to the side, offering a lovely ambience and measuring approximately 40’ in length. Further offering outside lighting, water and power. The garden contains a wealth of mature shrubs and plants, along with a selection of small trees. Overall, the garden is largely paved with a central brick path meandering down to a large workshop/store spanning the width of the plot and also benefitting from power and light. This could potentially be developed into further accommodation or work space with the necessary consent.
