DESCRIPTION Located on the sought after Ash Lane is this beautifully presented four bedroom semi-detached family home with gardens, parking and garage. The property was built in 1934 with all rooms being well proportioned and still retaining a wealth of period features throughout.
From the parking area, steps lead up to the storm porch. The front door leads into a large and welcoming entrance hall with original tile flooring, storage cupboard, downstairs toilet and ample space for shoes and coats. The sitting room benefits from a southerly aspect, a bay window and an open fireplace with wooden mantel. The dining room can comfortably accommodate a table for 10/12 people and has a bay window with French doors opening out onto the gardens and patio. A sliding door from the entrance hall opens into the kitchen with a range of wall and base units, built in appliances, double oven with gas hob and window overlooking the gardens. The garden room is a recent addition with exposed brickwork, doors to both the front and back gardens, discreet plug sockets built into the floor and electric opening velux windows.
To the first floor are two large double bedrooms, both with bay windows and built in wardrobes. Bedroom one has views across Wells towards St Cuthberts Church and bedroom two has views of open countryside. The landing leads to a single bedroom overlooking the front and the main family bathroom with bath, separate shower, toilet, wash hand basin and storage cupboard. The loft has been converted to create a large dual aspect double bedroom with beautiful views towards Glastonbury Tor. On the second floor are several access points to storage in the eaves of the house along with a shower accessed from the landing.
OUTSIDE The property is approached by wrought iron gates opening onto a tarmac driveway allowing parking for 3/4 cars and leading to the garage.

This is mainly laid to lawn with shrubs, an apple tree, hedging, two brick built compost bins, outside sockets and a patio area, perfect for outside entertaining.
