On the first floor, a spacious landing leads to three generous double bedrooms, each with their own en suite facilities featuring stylish fittings that evoke a spa-like feel. There's also a large office and utility room that was formerly a double bedroom and could easily be converted back if desired. From the landing there is access to a long balcony that captures breathtaking views over the town, Hillsborough, the Bristol Channel, and even the distant Welsh coastline, with the front facing bedrooms also enjoying the same vista.

The top floor offers exceptional flexibility, with two further double bedrooms, a contemporary family bathroom, and delightful sea views from both rooms. This level can easily function as a private guest suite or an ideal space for teenage children, complete with lounge area, bedroom, and bathroom. Ample eaves storage is also available from the top floor landing and one of the bedrooms, adding to the home's practicality.

Outside, the property sits proudly within its own gated grounds. A large tarmac driveway provides parking for several vehicles, and there is a wooden storage shed with the potential to build a garage, subject to the necessary planning permissions. The front garden includes a small lawn and a seating area beneath the balcony, while paths on either side of the house lead to the wonderfully private and sunny rear garden.

At the rear, a paved patio runs the width of the home, complemented by an attractive raised seating area beneath a pergola—perfect for barbecues, al fresco dining, or simply soaking up the sun. The main garden is mostly level and laid to lawn, surrounded by vibrant shrubs and trees, providing a secure and tranquil environment that is ideal for both children and pets.

Further benefits include double glazing, gas central heating, and a sense of warmth and character that flows throughout the home. Don’t miss the chance to make this beautifully spacious and versatile family residence your own—a true gem in a prime coastal location.
