If you're after soaring ceilings, sweeping garden views, and a serious slice of local history, this two-bedroom apartment at Nettlecombe House in South Horrington might just tick every box on your wishlist.

Set within the handsome shell of the former Mendip Hospital, this ground floor flat comes with triple aspect windows, designated parking, and all the charm of a period property without the terrifying price tag. The guide price is £200,000 to £225,000, which is frankly not bad for a flat in a Victorian mansion with cricket views and a communal pond.

You get two double bedrooms, a bright living room with a bay window that floods the space with light, a family bathroom with overhead shower, and a neutrally decorated kitchen. It's tidy, tasteful, and located about two miles from Wells city centre, which means markets, pubs, the Cathedral, and a Waitrose are all within easy reach.

But it's the setting that really sells it. Nettlecombe House sits within sprawling communal gardens full of mature trees and birdsong. The local cricket club is just beyond the hedge, and countryside walks begin quite literally on your doorstep. Want to hit the golf course or grab a coffee? Wells Golf Club is a short stroll away.

This is the kind of place that works as a lock-up-and-leave, a downsizer's dream, or a rather smart starter home if you're not afraid of a bit of character. You'll be joining a friendly community with good access to Bristol, Bath, and even Castle Cary for mainline trains. And with 969 years left on the lease, you won't have to worry about moving again for a while.
