Welsford Avenue, Wells, BA5

DESCRIPTION

A splendid three bedroom semi-detached family home with large south facing gardens, ample parking and situated within a quiet residential area close to the city centre. The property has been enhanced by the current owners with new window and boiler whilst still offering scope to extend further if desired. 

Upon entering the house is a light and spacious entrance hall with parquet flooring and a large storage cupboard for shoes and coats. The kitchen/breakfast room benefits from a sunny dual aspect with an array of units, double electric oven, induction hob, space and plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher along with a walk in larder and a door opening out to the side of the house. The breakfast area can comfortably accommodate a table for four people with French doors opening out to the garden room for larger dinner parties. The garden room runs the width of the house and has a marvellous view over the south facing gardens, currently set up as a dining room with comfy seating but would make a perfect sitting room if desired with doors opening out to the patio. The warm and cosy sitting room has exposed wooden floors and features a gas fire as the focal point. 

To the first floor are three bedrooms, two spacious doubles and a good sized single bedroom which features a vanity sink unit and is currently used as a dressing room. The shower room comprises a large walk in shower, toilet, wash hand basin and heated towel rail.

OUTSIDE

The gardens to the rear have been transformed by the current owners to create a fantastic space for entertaining with friends and family whilst benefitting from a southerly aspect with sun throughout the day. From the garden room, double doors open out to a spacious patio with ample space for outside furniture along with borders made up of railway sleepers filled with shrubs, bushes and flowers. A large area of the garden is laid to lawn with further raised beds to the rear and a summerhouse, perfect for extra sitting or additional storage. To the side of the house is bar with light, electric, perfect for socialising and family gatherings. Approaching the property is a driveway for three cars with double wooden gates providing access to the side for either additional parking or access to the garden.
