Beresford House, 4, Lugger Yard, Wells-next-the-Sea

Brief Description

A rare opportunity to purchase a superb refurbished 4 bedroom period house with a private garden and garage right in the heart of town. No chain.

Main Description

Beresford House is a large semi detached period house situated in a tucked away location on Lugger Yard and only a short stroll to the Quay and the centre of town at Wells-next-the-Sea. In 1841 the yard was home to over 200 people in closely packed cottages and stretched almost down to the Quay but today is a quiet cul-de-sac of only a handful of period properties.

Formerly 2 cottages, the property has beautifully refurbished well proportioned living accommodation comprising an impressive open plan kitchen/dining/living room with a separate utility, a cosy sitting room and ground floor shower room. Upstairs, there are 2 en suite bedrooms, the principal also having a Juliet balcony with distant elevated views towards the sea and pinewoods, 2 further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Outside, the private walled garden has a sunny covered seating area with a detached garage and scope to create a parking space.

Beresford House is being offered for sale with no onward chain and would make an ideal permanent home close to all of the amenities on offer in the town or, as its current use, a much loved second home with a proven track record as a successful holiday lettings business.
