About the property.
Carlton Court is a popular retirement complex within the conservation area and in the heart of Wells. It is literally a stones’ throw and level walk from the Market Place, Bishop’s Palace and Cathedral.
This purpose-built development for the over 55’s has a House Manager and a 24 hour emergency Careline response system. There are safe and secure walled gardens, parking, communal lounge and a guest suite. Carlton Court has 32 leasehold properties arranged over 3 floors, each served by a lift. The apartment has a good position within this sought-after development.
Carlton Court is approached through its own landscaped courtyard (with parking) and a secure entrance with intercom system that leads into the main reception hall. A lift from the reception hall leads to number 12 which is on the first floor with almost all windows facing in a south westerly direction giving the apartment plenty of natural light. It is heated by electric night storage.
