Property Oracle says ..
This 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom property in Wells, Somerset, presents a unique opportunity for a buyer willing to undertake a full refurbishment. Situated on Fir Tor Avenue, off Ash Lane, the house benefits from a desirable location close to Wells’ city centre and several schools, including The Blue School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted). The property offers lovely views overlooking Wells Cathedral and Glastonbury Tor, which is a major plus for potential buyers.
The property itself, however, requires extensive renovation. Images show that the interior is largely untouched and would require a significant amount of work to bring it up to a modern standard. The existing features such as stained-glass windows and wood panelling, could be retained as charming original features, with potential to add significant value.
The garden is a positive, though currently somewhat overgrown, offering potential for landscaping. A double garage is an additional advantage. The lack of nearby public transport might present a drawback for some prospective buyers, though Wells city centre is within easy reach.
Overall, this property is attractive due to its location and original characteristics, however, the considerable renovation needed, and the lack of clear information about plot size, must be factored into any prospective purchase. A thorough survey is essential before making an offer.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
