DESCRIPTION A rare opportunity to acquire a good sized family home with a large attached workshop/double garage offering potential for secondary accommodation or business STPP.

This deceptively spacious four bedroom house has three reception rooms and a kitchen with cream shaker style units. There is a good size sitting room with marble hearth and double doors leading out onto a patio area. The dining room has a large window overlooking the garden. There is a third reception room currently used as a family room this has doors leading to a courtyard on one side and the garden on the other. There is also an internal door that leads to the large workshop area and a downstairs bathroom. Upstairs in the main house are four bedrooms, two doubles and two singles, and a good size family bathroom.

The workshop/garage could be used for a home based business, It could be used as extra accommodation for dependant relatives or it could be split from the main house. It has its own separate access off of Portway and parking for two or three cars. The vendor has a set of drawings (available in the office) to convert the workshop into a 3 bedroom dwelling this was approved for planning but the permission has since lapsed. Access to this property would be from Portway.


OUTSIDE There is a paved off street parking bay and further on street parking. A path leads up through a metal gate to the property where there is a small courtyard area to the left, this in turn leads to another gate which takes you to the rear of the property where you will find the separate access to the workshop area and a lane leading to Portway. On the other side of the property there is a garden laid mainly to lawn with a few shrubs.

DIRECTIONS From the Wells Office turn left onto Priory Road and carry on to the roundabout. At the roundabout take the third exit on the A39. At the next traffic lights turn left onto Burcott Road then take the next right into Balch Road. Follow the road round and turn right into Fairways. The property can be found straight in front of you at the top of the road.

LOCATION Wells is the smallest cathedral city in England. It caters for most everyday needs, offering good shopping facilities as well as restaurants and pubs, a cinema, churches of most denominations, together with open-air markets on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

Schools are plentiful with the Cathedral School, the Blue School and a choice of primary schools in Wells, Millfield School in Street and Downside school in Stratton-on-the-Fosse are easily accessible.
