15 PURN ROAD, BLEADON, WESTON-SUPER-MARE, SOMERSET, BS24 9JQ

Weston-super-Mare 2miles, Burnham-on-Sea 9miles, Bristol Airport 14miles, Bristol and Taunton 24miles.

An exceptionally well located and handsome home with stunning, far-reaching views from almost every room.

The house has a reception hall with galleried landing, 23ft sitting room, dining room, conservatory, kitchen/breakfast room, utility, cloakroom/shower room, integrated, double garage, 4 bedrooms, one with an ensuite, plus a family bathroom.

Outside there is a gated drive with parking for several vehicles and gardens to the front and side and a substantial terrace at the rear, with superb, far-reaching views. The garage is long enough for two vehicles, but it could also be integrated into the accommodation and/or developed above.

Location

Purn Road is in a residential area on the south side of Bleadon Hill, between Bleadon and Oldmixon. A quiet cul-du-sac, orientated to enjoy the most magnificent views south and west and Highfield House has the privilege of being located on the prime plot with epic, panoramic views.

The area is traversed by foot paths and facilities can be found close by in Uphill, Bleadon and Weston-super-Mare.

Access to Bristol and Taunton is easy via the M5, 5 miles away. There is also a mainline train station, just over 2 miles away, in Weston-super-Mare.

Description

A handsome and elegant home, which offers spacious and versatile accommodation with further scope if desired. A fantastic opportunity to feel ‘on-top-of-the-world’ in a stunning location within easy reach of all facilities.

Accommodation

A covered porch leads to the central front door, which opens to a generous reception hall. On the right is a dual aspect sitting room, which has a classically attractive fireplace with gas fire. But the real star of the show is the view through the French doors which lead out to the terrace. This view repeats in all of the downstairs rooms. Next door, the dining room again opens, via a conservatory, to the terrace and view.

The kitchen/breakfast room joins the dining room and it has a range of fitted units with a sink under a window facing south. There is space for a table and chairs. The utility room has a range of units, a sink and space for a washing machine, and an exterior, glazed door leads out to the terrace.

The kitchen opens to the reception hall, where there is a cloakroom and shower room and access to the integral double garage, which we believe has been constructed to allow for a second floor, if required. subject to Planning.

Upstairs, the galleried landing is flooded by light from a central window, there are 4 bedrooms, one of which has an ensuite and there is a family bathroom. The loft is fully boarded with a light and ladder.

Outside

A gated, block paved, driveway leads to the front of the house and there is parking for several vehicles. To the right an extremely attractive, well-maintained lawned area is bordered by redbrick walls and floral beds. A gate to the right of the house opens to the side garden, which has been used as a kitchen garden, with a greenhouse. Steps lead up to the rear terrace which is paved and wraps around the south side of the property, enclosed by ornate railings. The view is truly spectacular.

To the left of the house the double garage has a window and glazed door at the rear which opens to the terrace.

Tenure and other Points

Freehold. Mains drainage, water, gas and electricity. EPC rating D. Council tax band E. It’s worth noting that the garage was constructed to support a second floor if required.

About Us Roderick Thomas is an entirely independent firm with decade of experience selling and letting residential property. The firm has offices in Bristol (Clifton), Wells, Wedmore and Castle Cary and with its networked associate office in London covers a wide geographical area. The focus is to deliver a high level of service to clients to achieve the best sale or rental possible within a set timescale. The importance of wide spread advertising and effective marketing is recognised and with each property an individual campaign is planned. Having attracted buyers the next stage is negotiation and the firm prides itself on securing an agreement on the best terms and then progressing the sale to completion.  Ongoing discussion with all parties including solicitors ensures an agreed timetable is maintained and hitches are anticipated when possible and addressed with action taken if necessary. Focusing fully on sales and letting and not being burdened with “head office” costs Roderick Thomas is able to offer highly competitive commission rates on all agency terms. These include: Sales SOLE AGENCY – one agent is instructed to sell a property and commission is paid to the agent on completion of the sale. JOINT AGENCY – two (occasionally more) agents are instructed.  They work in conjunction and share the commission on completion.  The rate is usually higher than the sole agency. MULTI AGENCY – two (or occasionally more) agents are instructed.  They work in competition and only the agent who sells receives a commission on completion.  Again this is usually at a higher rate then sole agency (but not always). All prospective sellers are invited to contact Roderick Thomas to discuss the sale of any property.
