Two Furlong Hill, Wells-next-the-Sea, NR23

Offered for sale with no onward chain, Meadowside is a detached family house situated in an elevated position on the outskirts of the seaside town of Wells-next-the-Sea with paddock views to the front.  The property offers the buyer an exciting opportunity to improve and modernise the accommodation with potential to extend, subject to the necessary permissions.

The existing ground floor accommodation comprises a spacious entrance hall, kitchen with a separate utility, dining room, sitting room, rear lobby and a shower room.  Upstairs, the principal bedroom has an en suite bathroom and there are 2 further bedrooms, 1 with a cloakroom, and a family shower room.  Further benefits include UPVC double glazed windows and doors, gas-fired central heating and fireplaces in the sitting room and dining room.

Outside, Meadowside has an extensive gravelled driveway with an attached garage and a good sized south facing garden.

Wells-next-the-Sea has been a fishing and commercial port for nearly 600 years which still supports a thriving fishing fleet bringing in crabs, lobsters, mussels and whelks sold locally on the quayside and in nearby restaurants. With a growing number of leisure craft moorings, a lively, sociable sailing club, harbour and sea fishing trips, the town caters for every type of water activity including “gillying” -crabbing on the quayside. Situated a mile from the Quay, the stunning extensive sandy beach is ranked as one of the top 10 in the country by Telegraph Travel. Against a backdrop of Corsican pinewoods, the beach is home to the much publicised, iconic colourful beach huts, available to buy or rent daily.

From the top of town down to the Quay, Staithe Street provides visitors and locals with a wide variety of shops, cafes, galleries and food stores. For entertainment, the newly opened Wells Maltings offers live entertainment and exhibitions, whilst alongside the Quay, are all the usual popular traditional seaside attractions. After 3 years of restoration, the Quay also sees the welcome return of The Albatros (a former Dutch cargo ship) which is permanently moored and will reopen soon offering its own unique forms of hospitability. Locals agree with The Times in March 2021 who voted Wells as one of the best places to live. Alongside coastal scenery, wildlife and water sports, the town has a primary and secondary school – both rated Good by Ofsted - as well as a library, doctor’s surgery and hospital providing a range of accessible and integrated health and well being services.
