Property description

Description

Mendip View is an attractive detached cottage located in an elevated, rural position and only a short drive away from the centre of Wells. As the name suggests, this charming property enjoys stunning countryside views, including the Mendips. Thought to date back to the late 1800's, there are also plenty of original features throughout. Mendip View will also be suited to investors looking for a reliable income from a holiday let. The ground floor accommodation includes a lounge, dining room, kitchen and a bathroom. The open staircase leads to the first floor and the spacious dual aspect bedroom enjoying the wonderful views. At the top of the staircase there is a large galleried area which could easily be partitioned off to become a second bedroom. Outside, there are two garden areas, one of each side of the property. Both are mainly laid to lawn with plenty of established shrubs and planted borders. There is also a detached stone built outbuilding with a carport on the side.
