3 bedroom detached house for sale
Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
Herberts is a modern detached house situated in a charming setting within walking distance of the town centre at the seaside town of Wells-next-the-Sea with fine views of St Nicholas' Church. The property has been beautifully refurbished and extended by the current owners and has the benefit of UPVC double glazed windows and doors, oak veneer internal doors and gas-fired central heating. The spacious flexible living accommodation comprises a bright and airy entrance hall, kitchen, a good sized sitting/dining room with a snug (which could provide a ground floor bedroom 4) and a study. Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to 3 bedrooms, the principal having an en suite shower room, and a family bathroom.
Outside, there is driveway parking to the front and a low maintenance partly walled courtyard garden to the rear which overlooks the church.
Herberts is a much loved second home and successful holiday lettings business for the current owners but would also suit those buyers looking for a spacious permanent residence close to all of the facilities Wells-next-the-Sea has to offer. Some of the furniture, fixtures and fittings are also available by separate negotiation.
Wells-next-the-Sea has been a fishing and commercial port for nearly 600 years which still supports a thriving fishing fleet bringing in crabs, lobsters, mussels and whelks sold locally on the quayside and in nearby restaurants. With a growing number of leisure craft moorings, a lively, sociable sailing club, harbour and sea fishing trips, the town caters for every type of water activity including “gillying” -crabbing on the quayside. Situated a mile from the Quay, the stunning extensive sandy beach is ranked as one of the top 10 in the country by Telegraph Travel. Against a backdrop of Corsican pinewoods, the beach is home to the much publicised, iconic colourful beach huts, available to buy or rent daily.
From the top of town down to the Quay, Staithe Street provides visitors and locals with a wide variety of shops, cafes, galleries and food stores. For entertainment, the newly opened Wells Maltings offers live entertainment and exhibitions, whilst alongside the Quay, are all the usual popular traditional seaside attractions. Locals agree with The Times in March 2021 who voted Wells as one of the best places to live. Alongside coastal scenery, wildlife and water sports, the town has a primary and secondary school – both rated Good by Ofsted - as well as a library, doctor’s surgery and hospital providing a range of accessible and integrated health and well being services.
Mains water, mains drainage and mains electricity. Gas-fired central heating to radiators. EPC Rating Band C.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
