3 bed detached bungalow for sale

Beach Road West, Portishead - Development Opportunity BS20

Situated on one of Portishead’s most prestigious and sought-after addresses, this detached bungalow occupies an elevated position along Beach Road West, enjoying open views across the Lake Grounds and towards the estuary beyond.

Set within a generous and versatile plot, the property benefits from a wide frontage to one side and a substantial rear garden - a rare combination in such a prime coastal location. Importantly, the outlook is uninterrupted, with no trees blocking the far-reaching views, allowing any future redevelopment to fully capitalise on the surrounding landscape.

Beach Road West has become synonymous with high-quality architectural transformation, with many neighbouring homes having been redeveloped into striking contemporary residences in recent years. This property presents a compelling opportunity to follow suit and create a landmark family home in a blue-chip position.

While the existing bungalow has been improved to provide comfortable living - including a re-fitted kitchen, modern shower room, lounge/diner, two double bedrooms and a first-floor attic bedroom with en-suite - the true value lies in the exceptional potential of the plot.

The property offers exceptional potential for redevelopment or enhancement, with many homes along this sought-after road having already been extended or comprehensively remodelled to create substantial contemporary family houses. It presents an exciting opportunity to design a spacious home that maximises natural light, views and internal living space, adding significant value in a proven and highly desirable location.
