3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Slade Road, Portishead, Bristol BS20

A charming stone-built Victorian semi-detached period cottage, built in 1895, occupying an enviable position on the highly regarded Slade Road, ideally placed within easy reach of the High Street and a wide range of local amenities.

Approached via a gated pathway, the property enjoys a walled front garden providing a welcome degree of separation from the road and an attractive introduction to the home. The entrance vestibule offers a fitting start, featuring a tiled floor and multi-paned door and window combination opening into the main entrance hall. The tiled flooring continues through the hallway, where stairs rise to the first-floor landing and doors lead to the principal reception rooms. Beneath the staircase is an open recess with a window, presenting excellent potential for the creation of a downstairs cloakroom alongside useful under-stairs storage.

The living room occupies the front elevation and is a particularly characterful space, with a sash bay window, moulded ceiling cornicing and an ornate fireplace surround with inset. Sliding doors open through to the dining room, allowing the option of open-plan living or separation as desired.

The dining room enjoys a large rear-facing window looking over the garden, complemented by a feature open-grate fireplace with tiled surround and hearth, together with a traditional picture rail. A glazed door leads through to the hallway and onward into the kitchen/breakfast room.

The kitchen/breakfast room is generously proportioned, fitted with a range of wall, base and drawer units with work surfaces and an inset stainless steel sink. Windows to the side and rear provide excellent natural light and views over the garden, while a side door offers direct outdoor access. There is ample space for a large dining table, creating a wonderful family-focused room at the heart of the home.

To the first floor, the spacious landing benefits from a side window and leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms, along with a family bathroom.

Outside

The rear garden extends to approximately 90 feet and enjoys a sunny orientation, providing an excellent outdoor space for both relaxation and entertaining. Predominantly laid to lawn, the garden is complemented by two mature apple trees and well-established borders, creating a pleasant and private setting. Towards the far end of the garden, a patio area provides a secluded spot to enjoy the late summer sun. A large garden shed is positioned to the rear, while a pathway runs along the side of the property, giving convenient access to the kitchen and continuing through to the front of the house.

Allocated Parking

The property further benefits from off-road car parking, accessed via Church Close.
