This charming stone-built, detached cottage occupies a prime position on Bristol Road in Portishead, just a short walk from the High Street, Portishead football fields and it is within the catchment area for Gordano Secondary School.

The classically designed, three-bedroom house is beautifully presented and packed full of character with a wealth of period features such as exposed beams, window seats and exposed stone walls.

Beyond the spacious entrance hallway, there is a cosy living room with exposed ceiling beams, quality wooden flooring, and an exposed stone chimney breast housing an open fireplace with a log burner. There is also a separate dining room with a lovely window seat and an unused open fireplace that acts as a strong focal point.

At the back of the house, there is a recently extended and superbly-appointed modern kitchen/diner which is bathed in natural light thanks to its Velux windows. The kitchen has a classic look with sleek white units, wooden work surfaces, several built-in appliances including a Range cooker and a large central island. The ground floor accommodation is completed with a downstairs family bathroom located off the kitchen.

On the first floor, there are three bedrooms, two of which are doubles and the third is a large single that would also work well as a home office. The bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family shower room located just off the landing.

Outside, there is a low-maintenance garden at the front and side of the house that offers a good degree of privacy. This sun-filled outdoor space is mainly laid to lawn and there is a paved patio immediately adjacent to the house that is a superb spot for alfresco dining.

The property has a driveway large enough to accommodate two vehicles.
