Description

14 NEW SQUARE,
SOUTH HORRINGTON VILLAGE, WELLS, SOMERSET, BA5 3JS
 
The house has an entrance hall, cloakroom, store room, kitchen, sitting room/dining room, 2 bedrooms and a family bathroom.
 
Outside there is an attractive front garden and enclosed rear garden with timber shed, and 2 parking spaces in front of the house.
 
Location
The house is nestled on the northern periphery of a Victorian hospital in South Horrington, and is part of a well-established community.
South Horrington is just two miles from the centre of Wells and offers a peaceful, secure environment with no through traffic. The main part of the village is centred around the striking Victorian hospital, now sympathetically converted into a collection of characterful homes and apartments. Residents benefit from beautifully maintained communal gardens, a cricket pitch, and superb countryside views, all within easy reach of Wells and its excellent amenities.
 
Description
Built in 1998, this exclusive enclave of homes is an extension of the Victorian hospital, and the planning mirrors the layout of the grand quads and courts found there, but with modern features and gardens for each home. The result is a collection of well-designed properties, centred around quiet squares, with no through traffic, and a real sense of community. No 14 has the benefit of a sheltered, south-facing garden.
 
Accommodation
The front door opens to a hallway with space for coats. To the left is a cloakroom and store cupboard, and to the right a kitchen with fitted units, space for a washing machine/dishwasher and under-counter fridge. There is a new cooker with grill, oven and gas hob with extractor. The spacious sitting room/dining room makes the most of the space under the stairs and opens, through French doors, to the attractive garden.
Stairs rise from the sitting room to 2 bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is a loft which has a ladder and is part boarded.
 
Outside
To the front of the house there are 2 parking spaces and a hedged front garden. At the rear, an enclosed, attractive, south facing garden with paved and gravel terrace beside the house, timber shed, lawned area and gravelled terrace under a handsome silver birch.
