A spacious, Victorian semi-detached family home offering generous period proportions, modern energy upgrades and far-reaching Bristol Channel views from the rear. The house has been well updated in recent years — including solar PV with battery storage (March 2023), a new combi boiler (March 2023), new UPVC sash windows and electric blinds — so running costs and comfort are improved compared with a typical property of this era.
Accommodation is arranged over three floors with four bedrooms, two bathrooms and three reception rooms, including a bright sun/reception room with bi-fold doors opening onto a south-facing garden. Bedroom 1 and bedroom 3 benefit from sea views and air-conditioning; there is scope to add further living space by converting the loft (subject to planning permission).
Practical positives include rear lane access with scope to reinstate off-street parking, a large timber gazebo and outbuildings (garden room with power), CCTV, and USB A/C sockets throughout. The home will suit a growing family prioritising space, character and lower-energy running costs thanks to the PV and battery system.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the property sits in an area described as very deprived/ageing urban communities which may affect resale or rental demand; Council Tax Band E is above average; the external walls are likely original granite/whinstone with no known insulation; and rear hardstand parking would need reinstatement to create a dedicated off-street space. Bedroom four is currently very small (partitioned) and best used as a study or nursery unless reconfigured.
