This three-storey, semi-detached residence occupies an elevated position on the lower slopes of North Hill in Minehead and has stunning views over the town and the coast towards the surrounding hills.
The charming four-bedroom period property has retained many original features including cast iron fireplaces, picture rails, ceiling coving and oak flooring, that add a wealth of character to the rooms. The period features sit well with the newer additions to the house that include a modern kitchen and bathrooms.
On the ground floor, the lounge is a large well-proportioned room with quality oak flooring, an open fireplace and a bay window with views over the coast. The kitchen/ dining room is an equally large and bright room with an open layout. The kitchen has a classic traditional look with a range of olive-green coloured units, wooden work surfaces and several integrated appliances.
From the reception hall, stairs lead up to a half landing where there is a lovely stained glass window with sea views beyond. On the first floor, there are two double bedrooms with cast iron fireplaces and a well-appointed modern family bathroom. The principal bedroom has a large bay picture window from where there are wonderful panoramic views.
Two further double bedrooms can be found on the second floor, along with a modern fitted shower room.
Outside, the enclosed garden has been thoughtfully landscaped with various points of interest. There is a large, paved area with a raised timber decked terrace that has been designed to take full advantage of the views. From the terrace, steps lead down to the remainder of the garden which is mainly laid to lawn. A private gate opens onto a pathway that leads down to Minehead’s seafront.
The property is approached from Martlet Road over a shared tarmac driveway that leads to a private parking area.
