DESCRIPTION
Tucked away on a quiet lane is this purpose built development of apartments. Number 11 is a bright and spacious, two bedroom first floor apartment just a short walk from the centre of Wells.
The property comprises an entrance hall with stairs that rise to the first floor. The sitting/dining room is a good size and has a large bay window which makes the perfect spot for a dining table and offers views towards St Cuthberts Church and Wells Athletic Ground, the room is double height at one end with an attractive galleried mezzanine at the other. The kitchen is open plan to the sitting/dining room but is neatly arranged to one end. The kitchen has light wood effect units with an integrated fridge, freezer, electric oven, gas hob and a washing machine. A door leads through to a hallway, where two double bedrooms and the bathroom can be found. The bathroom is well-appointed with WC, vanity basin and bath with overhead shower and has travertine style honey coloured tiling throughout.
Stairs rise again to the galleried mezzanine level which offers a myriad of uses, the current owners use it as a study area but it could be an occasional bedroom or hobby room - or all three. Velux windows flood the space with natural light.
