About The Area
Wells is the smallest city in England (population about 11,000) lying in beautiful countryside between the Somerset Levels and the Mendip Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The major towns of the area being Bristol, Bath, Taunton and Yeovil are all within commuting distance. Castle Cary is the nearest train station with fast links to London. Wells has local markets twice a week and many medieval buildings including the Cathedral and moated Bishops Palace. There is a busy local shopping centre, a broad range of societies and activities and excellent state & independent schools in the area including Wells Blue School, Wells Cathedral School, Downside, All Hallows and Millfield.
Accommodation
North Road is a popular residential area, which runs between the top of St. Thomas Street, past the Cathedral School towards New Street as it enters Wells. It is a pleasant area and is within easy walking distance of the centre and amenities. Number 11 is a very appealing property, which has been extended, in recent years and is now a deceptively spacious house with good living space which is very light and airy with several double aspect rooms. It has the benefit of gas central heating and double glazing .Upstairs are 4 bedrooms, a bathroom and also a shower room. The placement of a doorway on the landing would separate a bedroom and bathroom creating a master bedroom suite if required.
*
The garage is now used as a store and utility room but it could easily be returned to garage use if needed. In addition there is good parking space in the front garden - plus a delightful rear garden. The accommodation is well arranged with a front PORCH leading into the HALL which has the staircase and a CLOAKROOM with hand basin and wc. Double doors open from the hall into the dual aspect SITTING ROOM which has a bay window, a decorative fireplace (not working), a polished veneer timber floor and an archway into the DINING ROOM with a similar floor and again a bay window. The BREAKFAST ROOM is in the centre of the house and has a tiled floor and an archway into the KITCHEN and the CONSERVATORY (all with tiled floors).
**
The kitchen is fitted with a range of floor and wall units, a 2 bowl sink unit, worktops, tiled splashbacks and integral appliances including a 4 ring gas hob, an extractor and a double oven. A door opens into the INTEGRAL GARAGE now used as a UTILITY ROOM with the CH boiler, a belfast sink unit and plumbing connections for a washing machine. The CONSERVATORY has a door to the garden and a door into the STUDY/LIVING ROOM which has a triple aspect, a door to the garden and is equally suited as a study or a sitting / living room. On the FIRST FLOOR the LANDING has a large walk-in wardrobe, a linen cupboard and ladder access to the partly boarded loft. The 4 BEDROOMS all lead from the landing. The BATHROOM has wall tiling, hand basin, wc, bath (with shower above) and fitted cupboards. The SHOWER ROOM is tiled with a hand basin, fitted cupboards, wc and a shower cubicle.
Outside
In front of the house the garden has been arranged to maximise parking space and is bounded by shrubs. At the rear of the house is a very pretty garden with a terrace being approached from the conservatory and the study. This terrace has a westerly aspect, is very sheltered, quiet and private and is ideal for meals and relaxation. Beyond is a mature, very pleasing lawned garden with flower and shrub beds and 2 timber sheds. At the far end is a terrace shaded by a pergola with climbing plants.
