6 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

The property has been sympathetically modernised throughout with a new Valentino kitchen, stylish bathrooms, and refreshed flooring and dcor, all carefully balanced against the home's Victorian character, elegant proportions and enduring sense of tranquillity. The original vestibule opens into an impressive entrance hall with oak flooring, period cornicing, a striking stone staircase and a log burner, creating a warm and welcoming first impression. The principal reception room enjoys curved sash windows with restored shutters and window seats, soaring ceilings, and magnificent views across the water. A marble fireplace with a substantial log burner provides a cosy focal point during the winter months, while direct access to the kitchen allows the room to function equally well as a formal dining room. The newly refurbished kitchen combines heritage detailing with modern convenience. Curved sash windows frame far-reaching estuary views, while a Belfast sink, induction hob and a comprehensive range of integrated Neff appliances ensure the space is as practical as it is attractive. A guest cloakroom, utility room, excellent storage and useful cellar spaces further enhance day-to-day living. The first floor is home to the principal suite, featuring a period fireplace, private balcony, walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious en suite bathroom with freestanding bath, walk-in shower and twin vanity sinks. A second generous double bedroom also enjoys water views and benefits from its own en suite shower room. The top floor provides exceptionally flexible accommodation, comprising three further double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a large triple-aspect reception room with balcony access. Ideal as guest accommodation, a space for older children, or potential self-contained living, this versatile floor can readily adapt to a variety of needs. Arrival at Woodside feels wonderfully private. Electric gates open onto a sweeping driveway with ample parking, leading to the handsome stone entrance and offering only a hint of the remarkable setting beyond. The gardens unfold across three beautifully arranged tiers, each offering a different way to enjoy the landscape. Expanses of lawn are framed by mature trees, while sheltered terraces provide ideal spaces for outdoor dining and entertaining. An established pond adds further character, and there is plenty of open lawn for family games and recreation. Tucked within the grounds, a fully powered, heated and insulated garden office provides an excellent work-from-home space. A series of balconies makes the most of the house's exceptional waterfront position. The principal bedroom opens onto a private balcony, while a larger balcony spans the front of the house, creating a superb vantage point for enjoying the views. A third balcony serves the top floor and can also be accessed via a spiral staircase. With the changing light from sunrise to sunset reflected across the water, the gardens and outdoor spaces provide a spectacular backdrop throughout the day. Woodlands Road is one of Portishead's most sought-after addresses, a private, tree-lined setting where ancient woodland meets the Bristol Channel. Woodside enjoys direct access to coastal and woodland walks, with Sugar Loaf Beach, the Lake Grounds and Battery Point all nearby. Despite its peaceful setting, the town's marina, cafs, restaurants, shops and highly regarded schools are all within easy reach. Bristol is approximately 20 minutes away by road via the M5, while Bristol Airport is around 10 miles distant, offering excellent connections for both commuting and travel.
