Mainsail Yard, Wells-next-the-Sea, NR23

23 Mainsail Yard is a superb attractive mid terrace town house situated in Mainsail Yard, an exclusive development providing around 20 coastal homes with cool, contemporary living in sympathetically designed buildings. The property is built of red brick with partly timber clad exterior and pantiled roof further benefiting from gas-fired central heating and majority UPVC double glazed windows and doors.

The property has been maintained to a high standard with well presented 4 double bedroom accommodation laid out over 3 storeys with views across the marshes towards the pinewoods.  Outside, there is a low maintenance courtyard garden to the front also providing parking and a large decked balcony to the rear making the most of the fine views and an ideal vantage point to watch the setting sun.

The property is being offered for sale with no onward chain and is only a few minutes' walk from the Quay and the amenities on offer in the town. All of this combines to make 23 Mainsail Yard not only suitable for a permanent, conveniently located seaside home but also an ideal coastal retreat with holiday lettings potential.  The furniture, fixtures and fittings are available by separate negotiation.

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.
