Hillside Road, Portishead.

Occupying a prime, elevated position along the ever-desirable Hillside Road, this outstanding residence commands breathtaking, far-reaching views across the estuary and beyond.

Already an impressive home of scale and refinement, what truly elevates this opportunity is the benefit of approved planning permission to significantly extend and reimagine the property - offering purchasers a rare chance to create a landmark coastal home of exceptional quality and design. Beautifully evolved over time, the property has been thoughtfully extended and meticulously maintained, now presenting a superb balance of elegance, space and versatility. The accommodation is immaculately presented throughout, with expansive open-plan living areas forming the heart of the home, complemented by five well-proportioned double bedrooms, with the luxurious principal suite enjoying private en-suite facilities.

A welcoming entrance hall creates a refined first impression, guiding you through to the principal reception room - an impressive space centred around a freestanding wood-burning stove, with floor-to-ceiling sliding doors that effortlessly connect the interior to the expansive sun terrace. Enclosed by contemporary glass balustrades, this elevated vantage point provides uninterrupted, panoramic views across the estuary, creating an exceptional setting to enjoy Portishead’s renowned sunsets. The kitchen/dining/living space is equally impressive - designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind. The bespoke kitchen is appointed with granite work surfaces, integrated appliances, and a striking corner window perfectly framing the coastal outlook. A separate utility room and cloakroom enhance practicality.

Beneath the terrace, a highly versatile studio - currently utilised as a games room - offers independent living potential, complete with its own kitchenette and shower room, ideal for guests, multi-generational living or future annex conversion.
