LOCATION
Wells-next-the-Sea is one of the loveliest towns on the North Norfolk Coast. Once a busy commercial port and manufacturing town between the 16th and 20th century and now a popular seaside resort for holidaymakers. Almost the entire 50 mile stretch of coastline from Snettisham in the west to Mundesley in the east is designated as an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Wells is a perfectly located base from which to explore this.

From the sweeping sandy beach, bordered by pinewoods and colourful beach huts, to the bustling harbour, where you'll find children crabbing on the quay, opposite the finest fish and chips on the coast, to the pretty leafy green known as 'The Buttlands' with its warm & welcoming taverns - Wells is the perfect, family friendly seaside destination.

There are plenty of amenities including schools, a doctor's surgery, dentist, library, food stores, pubs and restaurants, as well as interesting independent boutiques and galleries. The Maltings is a venue for art, theatre and cinema and the vibrant community organises year-round events to help keep this seaside town one of the most desirable places to live in Norfolk.

SERVICES
All mains services are available for connection.

AGENT NOTE
