Priory Place is exceptionally well situated for enjoying the centre of Wells, with the High Street just a few steps away.

This is a particularly unusual opportunity to acquire a period home in such a quiet and hidden position in the very heart of Wells.
Accommodation
The property has retained much of its period character and charm, whilst offering well-proportioned and adaptable accommodation. Its secluded position is particularly appealing, being tucked away from the bustle of the city centre yet within a very short level walk of the High Street and the many amenities for which Wells is renowned.
Approached over a tarmaced pathway leading to a small row of attractive Victorian terraced properties (not listed), the house occupies a particularly secluded position at the end of the path. A wrought iron gate gives access to its own private front garden, which includes a delightful period summer house and provides a pleasant and unexpected oasis in such a central location.
