DESCRIPTION

Set in the heart of the city of Wells, just moments from the High street is this bright and spacious two bedroom first floor apartment.  The property, which requires  some cosmetic updating, benefits from its own front door, high ceilings and large windows and would suit first time buyers and investors alike. The property is offered with no onward chain and a share of the freehold.

Upon entering the property is an entrance hall with wooden floors, a half-panelled wall, electricity and gas meters and space for coats and shoes. Stairs rise to the first floor, with a large window offering plenty of light to the stairwell.  At the top of the stairs is a door to the apartment.  A good size hall leads to all the rooms and has a window to the rear and cupboard with shelves and hanging space. The sitting room is particularly generous and benefits from picture rails, shelved alcoves, wood effect laminate flooring and has two windows to the front and a borrowed light offering further light from the stairwell.  The kitchen, accessed via an arch from the hall, has a window to the rear, light wood effect units, space and plumbing for a washing machine, space for a fridge freezer and an integrated electric oven and gas hob with extractor above. The main bedroom is a good size double with window to the front and two built-in wardrobes with louvre doors.  The second bedroom, again with a front aspect is a single room, which could also be used as an office if required.  The bathroom comprises a 'P' shaped bath with shower overhead, vanity basin, WC and modern towel radiator.
