Walk through
Entering through impressive stained-glass and panelled doors, you are welcomed into a grand and inviting entrance hall, with stunning tessellated tiled flooring, high ceilings, intricate cornicing, and exquisite hand-painted stained-glass detailing. From this central hall, the property's layout seamlessly flows into the principal rooms. The ground floor has a welcoming sitting room, a refined dining room, and a cosy study - each featuring ornate fireplaces, woodburning stoves, and double-glazed sash windows, creating the ideal spaces for family relaxation or entertaining.
To the rear, the contemporary kitchen/breakfast room has granite worktops, a generous central island with breakfast bar seating and a pantry. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher and fridge/freezer and there is space for a gas range cooker set within the chimney breast. There is also access from here to the back garden.
An adjoining utility room with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer has access to the garden and together with downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.
A graceful staircase takes you to the next floor, where there are four spacious double bedrooms. The master suite enjoys far-reaching views to the sea and has a luxurious en-suite with separate bath and shower. The dual-aspect second bedroom provides delightful natural light, while bedrooms three and four overlook the property's tranquil rear gardens. There is also a laundry/linen cupboard and a family bathroom.
The second floor completes the accommodation with two additional generous bedrooms—one of which could easily be a games room or amenity space—and a family bathroom, again all offering elevated views stretching across Clevedon towards the distant sea.
