courtyard to the rear.
1 Mindhams Yard is being offered for sale with no onward chain and, with the
Quay and the town's shopping centre being just a short walk away, this is an
ideal property for those buyers looking for a compact character permanent

Wells - next - the - Sea has been a fishing and commercial port for nearly 600 years
which still supports a thriving fishing fleet bringing in crabs, lobsters,
mussels and whelks sold locally on the quayside and in nearby restaurants.
With a growing number of leisure craft moorings, a lively, sociable sailing
club, harbour and sea fishing trips, the town caters for every type of water
activity including “gillying” - crabbing on the quayside. Situated a mile from
the Quay, the stunning extensive sandy beach is ranked as one of the top 10 in
the country by Telegraph Travel. Against a backdrop of Corsican pinewoods, the
beach is home to the much publicised, iconic colourful beach huts, available
to buy or rent daily.
From the top of town down to the Quay, Staithe Street provides visitors and
locals with a wide variety of shops, cafes, galleries and food stores. For
entertainment, the newly opened Wells Maltings offers live entertainment and
exhibitions, whilst alongside the Quay, are all the usual popular traditional
seaside attractions. After 3 years of restoration, the Quay also sees the
welcome return of The Albatros (a former Dutch cargo ship) which is
permanently moored and will reopen soon offering its own unique forms of
hospitability. Locals agree with The Times in March 2021 who voted Wells as
one of the best places to live. Alongside coastal scenery, wildlife and water
sports, the town has a primary and secondary school – both rated Good by
Ofsted - as well as a library, doctor’s surgery and hospital providing a range
of accessible and integrated health and well being services.
