A great opportunity to update a village house that has been in
single ownership for over four decades. Built on the site of a
cottage dating back to the 13th century The Well Head was suitably
named due to the water supply that it originally offered to locals
in times gone by. Initially surrounded by field the early Well Head
was at the top of the large garden, which now filter s into a lower
chamber nearer the house. The current building is mostly turn of
the century with a 1930s facade of painting stucco under a tiled
roof.?
Now a semi detached with its neighbour Melbourne House, the
property offers 2 3 reception rooms on the ground floor, the third
being a potential bed 5, or study which it was indeed built for.
The kitchen, utility, rear stairs and outhouse all form the
balancing extension to the study, although covers two floors. In
addition there is a ground floor shower room.
The Sitting Room has French doors to the garden and a working
fireplace, the dining room has a bay window to the front.
On the first floor there are three double bedrooms, a family
bathroom, a separate WC, and a dressing room or single bedroom,
plus a further small single bedroom. Further stairs to the
converted loft offer full height eaves attic rooms for storage
across the width of the house, this could be converted into
additional rooms with planning permission.
The Wellhead is in need of overall updating, from electrics to
plumbing to new kitchen and bathrooms. Currently with gas central
heating and mostly double glazing it offers great potential for the
right owners.
?
Outside the mature garden extends to almost a quarter of an acre,
extending up hill in layers, laid to lawns, paths, steps and trees
& shrubs, it s own summerhouse and a secret rose garden at the very
end.
There is a narrow gated drive to the south which opens up into a
covered car port for 2 cars. There is a large dry shed for storage
and a further coal log store behind.
Currently still going through probate there is no onward chain.
