Property description & features

  • Beautifully proportioned (circa 4000 sq. ft) semi-detached period house
  • Superb west-facing rear garden
  • Off-street parking for several vehicles and a detached double garage
  • Exquisite internal accommodation over four floors
  • Beautiful family kitchen, breakfast room and snug
  • Decked veranda
  • Stunning period features
  • Fabulous views over St. Mary's and across to Wales
  • Easy access to The Downs

Over the past 21 years or so of ownership, the owners of this stunning home have meticulously restored the house; preserving and enhancing the rich and detailed period features, re-instating those that are lost and creating a welcoming, immensely flexible family home whilst landscaping a generous west-facing fully enclosed garden.

Of particular note are the wonderful high ceilings throughout; from the incredibly versatile lower ground floor (previously a self-contained flat) as well as the dramatic five-sash bay windows over the two floors above, affording breath-taking views over the garden to St Mary's Church spire and across the Severn estuary to Wales.

On entering, a discreet tarmac driveway gives access to plenty of off-street parking, as well as a detached double garage.

Shallow steps lead down to the front door, with a side path and steps leading down to the rear garden beyond. A handsome wooden front door opens into a useful entrance porch, ideal for coats and boots, with a part-glazed door opening into the welcoming entrance hall, complete with a further coat room and separate w.c.

From the entrance hall, the owners' hard work, love of period homes and fabulous eye for detail is apparent; a continuing trend throughout the house. Nuggets of detail are everywhere; from sourcing period door plates and handles to refurbished ceiling plaster work, replacing period fire surrounds and a thorough refurbishment throughout.

The accommodation itself is effortlessly versatile. Over the hall floor is a dramatic 25' dining room, with a working fireplace, which could easily re-purpose as the family sitting room, complete with a bespoke almost full depth feature bookcase. The five-sash bay windows affords glorious views and the ceiling has rich and detailed plasterwork.

Adjacent to this is the family kitchen and breakfast room; again beautifully finished and proportioned, with plenty of space for informal dining, seating and plenty of kitchen workspace (the kitchen itself having underfloor heating). There is a working gas coal effect fire to the seating area and a glazed door opens (with bi-folding windows either side) onto a mosaic tiled veranda; a perfect spot for a morning coffee or evening sundowner.

The first floor provides access to the most glamourous room, currently the owners drawing room but potentially a remarkable master bedroom suite. This too has a five-sash bay window with stunning views, working fireplace and is finished with stripped wooden floors and wonderful ceiling plasterwork.

Adjacent is the current master bedroom; wonderfully proportioned with a square bay-window and incredible views and sunsets over the river Severn to the west. This is served by a fabulous en-suite shower room, with limestone tiled walls to dado level and underfloor heating.

Off the first floor landing is a further double bedroom with an additional bedroom arranged over the top floor.

These are served by a stylish family bathroom, complete with a period style “claw and ball” foot double-ended bath, separate walk-in shower cubicle, low level w.c, wash basin and underfloor heating.

Accessed via stairs from entrance hall is the extensive lower ground floor.This has served the current owners as their office for a long time, although when they bought the home this was an established self-contained apartment providing a rental income for the previous owners, The ceiling height is superb, and the space provides numerous opportunities and is complete with a kitchenette and cloakroom / w.c.

The gardens and grounds are superb and cover a generous foot print; from the front drive down to the rear garden. At present, the rear is informally split between a level lawn with a pagoda for day to day use and a wild flower garden and a formal raised bed cutting garden. It is interspersed with mature trees such as a Holm Oak and Yew, and bordered to the east with a stone wall affording exceptional privacy.
