Features and description
- Leasehold
9 Northfield Lane is a ground floor apartment situated within easy walking distance of the town centre and Quay at Wells-next-the-Sea. The property would now benefit from a programme of improvements with accommodation comprising an entrance hall, kitchen, sitting/dining room, a double bedroom and bathroom. There is gas-fired central heating installed with UPVC windows and entrance door and good sized gardens to the front and rear with a small outbuilding.
9 Northfield Lane is being offered for sale leasehold with a share of the freehold and would make an ideal compact home close to amenities, buy to let investment or as a second home.
The vendor Flagship Housing does require offers to be accompanied by a completed Declaration of Interest form which is available from Belton Duffey. The vendor also requires exchange and completion to take place within 28 days of an offer being accepted and reserves the right to abort the sale if this condition is not met. Please note that a grounds maintenance charge applies (£38.82 for 2024/25 of which number 9 is liable for a half share) and that the property must be marketed for a minimum of 14 days before any offers are to be considered. Please also note that all properties built before 2000 will have some degree of asbestos, a report may be available to obtain from Flagship but buyers are encouraged to conduct their own searches. There is an engrossment fee of £120 payable by the purchaser upon completion.
Wells-next-the-Sea has been a fishing and commercial port for nearly 600 years which still supports a thriving fishing fleet bringing in crabs, lobsters, mussels and whelks sold locally on the quayside and in nearby restaurants. With a growing number of leisure craft moorings, a lively, sociable sailing club, harbour and sea fishing trips, the town caters for every type of water activity including “gillying” -crabbing on the quayside. Situated a mile from the Quay, the stunning extensive sandy beach is ranked as one of the top 10 in the country by Telegraph Travel. Against a backdrop of Corsican pinewoods, the beach is home to the much publicised, iconic colourful beach huts, available to buy or rent daily.
From the top of town down to the Quay, Staithe Street provides visitors and locals with a wide variety of shops, cafes, galleries and food stores. For entertainment, the newly opened Wells Maltings offers live entertainment and exhibitions, whilst alongside the Quay, are all the usual popular traditional seaside attractions. After 3 years of restoration, the Quay also sees the welcome return of The Albatros (a former Dutch cargo ship) which is permanently moored and will reopen soon offering its own unique forms of hospitability. Locals agree with The Times in March 2021 who voted Wells as one of the best places to live. Alongside coastal scenery, wildlife and water sports, the town has a primary and secondary school – both rated Good by Ofsted - as well as a library, doctor’s surgery and hospital providing a range of accessible and integrated health and well being services.
