Description
A golden opportunity to acquire a detached, two double bedroom family home offering in excess 1238 sq. ft of living accommodation located in a popular hillside location.
The property is approached via a welcoming entrance hall, which sits at the heart of the home and provides access to the principal rooms. The living room is particularly generous, offering excellent proportions with plenty of space for both comfortable seating and additional furnishings. Filled with natural light and with estuary view glimpses, it provides an inviting setting in which to relax or entertain. The kitchen/dining room forms a sociable hub of the home, fitted with a range of cabinetry and work surfaces while retaining ample space for a dining table and chairs. Double doors provide direct access outside, creating a natural connection between the interior and garden and making this a particularly appealing space during the warmer months.
Adding further versatility is a separate utility room, providing useful additional storage and space for household appliances. From here, the accommodation continues into the sun room, an attractive additional reception space with glazing to multiple aspects allowing plenty of natural light to flood the room. Enjoying an outlook over the outside space, it lends itself perfectly to use as an informal sitting room, reading room, home office or hobby space. The sun room along with the utility room could easily be changed into a third bedroom subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The sleeping accommodation is equally well considered. Bedroom One is a generous double bedroom with useful fitted storage, while Bedroom Two is also well proportioned and benefits from fitted wardrobes. A family bathroom serves both bedrooms and completes the main living accommodation.
Outside - The rear garden occupies a sunny and private orientation with deep planted shrubs and ornamental trees occupying the borders. The garden is to just patio for low-maintenance and is accessed from the sun room and the kitchen/dining room. To the side of the property is another area of space to sit back in total privacy.
Garage & Driveway - The property is approached via a generous block-paved driveway with an attractive turning bay, providing excellent off-road parking for at least three to four vehicles. The front of the property is complemented by deep, well-established planted borders, featuring a variety of flowering shrubs and specimen trees, creating an attractive and mature approach to the house. The integral garage is situated beneath the property and benefits from light and power, while an adjoining separate store room provides useful additional storage. To the side, steps lead up to the front door where the entrance to the property can be located.
Location - Highfield Drive occupies an established residential position on the western side of Portishead, offering an appealing balance between convenient access to the town and the outdoor lifestyle for which this popular coastal location is renowned. Families are particularly well catered for, with High Down Infant and Junior Schools located nearby, together providing education from nursery age through to Year 6. A selection of other primary and secondary schools can also be found across Portishead, while everyday amenities are readily available along the traditional High Street and around the vibrant Marina. These include supermarkets, independent shops, cafés, restaurants, leisure facilities and a range of professional services.
Portishead offers an excellent choice of recreational opportunities, including coastal walks, open green spaces, the Lake Grounds, open-air swimming pool, sailing facilities and the picturesque Marina. The surrounding countryside and nearby Gordano Valley provide further opportunities for walking, cycling and enjoying the outdoors. For commuters, the A369 provides access towards Bristol, while Junction 19 of the M5 connects with the wider motorway network. The reinstatement of the Portishead railway line is now underway, with passenger services currently expected to begin in winter 2028/29. The planned service will provide hourly direct trains from Portishead to Bristol Temple Meads, with an anticipated journey time of approximately 25 minutes—an exciting improvement to the town’s already strong transport connections.
