Property Description: Guide Price: £550,000 to £575,000.


There are very few properties in Wells that can boast having views of Wells Cathedral as well as Glastonbury Tor - Hillside is one of these. As the road name suggests, this immaculately presented three bedroom bungalow is in an elevated position on the north side of the city of Wells and the panoramic views from this property are stunning.


This is an exceptionally well thought out bungalow with the living rooms having a southerly aspect. This not only makes the most of the views but the kitchen/dining room, sun room and sitting room are all light filled and bright. The sitting room is to the front of the property and is dual aspect with a door opening out onto to an elevated sun terrace. There is a feature fireplace making it a cosy room in the evenings. The kitchen/dining room is fitted with wall and base units, an electric oven and has plumbing for a dishwasher. The dining area is in front of the south facing window and this room then leads to the sunroom, which is part glazed with a seating area and a door that takes you out to the garden.


From the spacious hallway there are two double bedrooms, one of which has a large built in wardrobe. The family bathroom, with bath and a power shower, is on the ground level along with a laundry cupboard, which houses the washing machine, and an airing cupboard which houses the new boiler installed in 2021.


The third double bedroom is on the top floor and has an en-suite shower room with an outstanding view. This bedroom is spacious and has lots of storage fitted within the eaves.


Outside: To the front of the property there is a driveway and a pathway across the garden which leads to the porch and front door. There is a single garage with a separate potting shed to the rear.


The garden wraps around the property. On the north side of the house is a raised lawn area with hedging on both sides, a shed and a small pond. You can then walk round the back of the house to the south facing garden with terraces (one elevated), lawn, beds and another pond. From the corner of the garden there is a gateway which leads onto the West Mendip Way footpath so, literally in moments, you can be out in the beautiful Somerset countryside.


Location: This property is located in the north-west of the picturesque city of Wells in an elevated position away from main roads. The bustling high street is within walking distance and provides a range of local amenities with four supermarkets (Waitrose being the closest), a cinema, leisure centre, numerous coffee shops, pubs and restaurants to choose from, several dentists and doctors, some fabulous independent shops and even some art shops for those seeking something a little different. There are also famous historical landmarks such as the Cathedral and Bishop's Palace, as well as the popular twice weekly produce market and Cedars Hall offering a range of cultural events throughout the year. Countryside walks are on your doorstep with access from the garden to the West Mendip Way which takes you up onto the Mendip Hills.


There are excellent state schools in the vicinity: Stoberry Park School, St Cuthbert's CofE Junior School, St Joseph and St Teresa Catholic Primary School and The Blue School as well as independent schools including Wells Cathedral School on your doorstep. All Hallows Prep School, Downside and Millfield are just a short drive away. Wells also benefits from being close enough to Glastonbury Festival to qualify its residents for the sale of local tickets.
