Wake up to spectacular estuary views from this exceptional coastal bungalow.

Perfectly positioned within easy reach of local amenities and a nearby bus service providing convenient access to both Portishead and Bristol, the property combines a peaceful setting with excellent connectivity.
The well-planned accommodation is both spacious and adaptable, beginning with a welcoming entrance hall leading through to a generous sitting room where large patio doors frame views towards the estuary and open onto the front garden, creating a light and inviting living space.
The fitted kitchen offers an excellent range of storage and workspace and flows naturally into the separate dining room, providing an ideal setting for entertaining family and friends. A delightful conservatory overlooks the rear garden and offers an additional reception area, with direct access outside, allowing the garden to become a natural extension of the home during the warmer months.
There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both benefitting from fitted wardrobes, while the principal bedroom enjoys a peaceful position overlooking the side garden. The second bedroom features attractive bay windows capturing views towards the Severn Estuary. Completing the accommodation is a well-appointed shower room with built-in storage.

The landscaped front garden features a lawn, mature planting and a paved seating terrace, perfectly positioned to enjoy stunning evening sunsets across the Severn Estuary. The private, level rear garden offers a sunny aspect with well-stocked borders, a patio, vegetable garden and pond, while a timber workshop with power and lighting provides excellent storage or hobby space. A generous driveway offers off-road parking for several vehicles and leads to a single garage.
Location - Down Road occupies a highly regarded position on the hillside above Portishead, offering an excellent balance of tranquility and convenience. The property is within easy reach of the town centre, Marina, a wide range of shops, cafés and restaurants, together with Waitrose, Sainsbury's and excellent leisure facilities.

Portishead has become one of the South West's most desirable coastal towns, renowned for its vibrant Marina, picturesque waterfront, strong sense of community and abundance of green open spaces, including the nearby Gordano Valley and coastal paths. The town is also set to benefit from the long-awaited reopening of the Portishead to Bristol railway line, with passenger services expected to commence in the coming years. The reinstated line will provide a direct rail connection to Bristol Temple Meads, significantly enhancing commuting options and further strengthening Portishead's appeal as a place to live and invest. For those travelling by road, the M5 motorway is easily accessible via Junction 19, providing excellent links to Bristol, the South West, the Midlands and beyond, while Bristol Airport is approximately 30 minutes away, making both business and leisure travel exceptionally convenient.
