Property Description

The property is approached via a block-paved driveway with parking for three vehicles, complemented by a charming picket-fenced garden laid with low-maintenance artificial lawn. Gentle steps lead to a lower patio – perfect for alfresco dining and entertaining – while also providing convenient access to both the ground floor and the versatile lower ground level, which benefits from its own separate entrance.

Ground Floor

Inside, the home has been thoughtfully extended and reimagined to create a truly exceptional living space. An enchanting entrance hall immediately sets the tone, with a rare feature offering a direct view through the property to the estuary beyond. From here, the space flows into a bright dining area with a roof lantern and bespoke storage, all underpinned by elegant herringbone flooring that runs throughout the ground floor. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the bespoke kitchen/breakfast room, complete with quartz worktops, an inset Belfast sink, generous storage, and space for a range-style cooker. A central island doubles as a breakfast bar, while original Victorian detailing, including a ceiling rose and cornicing, blend seamlessly with the modern finish. From here, an inner hallway connects to an impressive reception room with a wood-burning stove and bay window framing stunning estuary views. This space flows through to the main living room, where a roof lantern (truncated)

Lower Ground Floor

The lower ground floor provides extraordinary flexibility, with its own independent access, two further rooms (ideal as bedrooms or reception spaces), a small kitchen area, and cloakroom/WC facilities – perfect for use as an annex, guest suite, or home office.

First & Second Floors

Across the first and second floors lie the remaining four double bedrooms, two of which feature en-suite facilities. The first floor also benefits from a well-appointed three-piece family bathroom, while the principal suite offers a true retreat on the upper levels, complete with a luxurious bathroom boasting a double shower, vanity unit, WC, and a freestanding claw-foot roll-top bath positioned to take full advantage of the panoramic estuary backdrop. The two rear bedrooms enjoy their own private balconies, where the high tide brings the sensation of being almost on the water – a breathtaking and rare experience.

Outside

Externally, the property enjoys access to a decking area which steps down onto a garden space that extends down to the estuary wall, further enhancing the sense of tranquillity and connection to the water. This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire one of Portishead’s most distinguished homes, combining timeless Victorian architecture with modern living, all set against a spectacular waterfront backdrop. Homes of this calibre and position seldom come to market.
