A unique masterpiece in Weston-Super-Mare

03 Apr A unique masterpiece in Weston-Super-Mare

Staff at the Weston-Super-Mare branch of Westcoast Properties are excited to offer for sale a handsome 1920’s home, reputed to have been the House of the Year in the 1926 ‘Ideal Homes Exhibition’, quietly tucked away in a premium spot on a sought-after road within a short stroll of the beach and promenade, Bluebell Woods, and golf, tennis, and cricket clubs in Weston-Super-Mare.

Described by the busy estate agency as “packed full of wow” and “a unique masterpiece of a property”, they say “the current owners have poured their hearts, soul and artistic flair into this house, every tiny detail has been designed for those who love luxury”.

Built in the style of architect Sir Edwin Lutyens and set over three floors, Aldwick is a handsome detached house of extensive proportions, immaculately presented and abundant in character with some very special modifications throughout.

From the second you walk from the porch into the hallway with its stained glass and octagonal windows, you are thrown into waves of contemporary and classic precision. The dual aspect 28’x16’ drawing room is full of light and is fitted with a modern fireplace.

The agents say the kitchen/dining room is the most beautiful they’ve ever seen. Stunningly fitted with high quality white cabinetry, a wonderful central island unit in deep royal blue with a trio of lights over, integrated appliances, and finished with quartz work surfaces, the kitchen has plenty of space, even for the most ambitious chef. Adjoining and opening into the kitchen is a family area with a cosy wood burner stove and ample space to relax together while the food is cooking.

There is also a walk-in pantry, plenty of cupboard space, a downstairs WC, a utility room and a door with an open porch leading out onto the south facing garden terrace.

On the first floor is a large, light landing, a luxurious family bathroom with a roll top bath and separate shower cubicle, and five double bedrooms. The principal bedroom overlooks the stunning rear garden and has a beautifully finished ensuite shower room.

The second floor is a truly unique and vast attic space ideal for perhaps a games room or home cinema on one side of the stairwell, with a second room for storage on the other.

The front garden is walled and lawned with plant and shrub beds and a long driveway to the integral garage. The stunning south facing rear garden is designed in the ‘Gertrude Jekyll’ delineated style with an attention to detail rarely seen in a landscaped outside space.

Measuring approximately 100ft in length, the garden includes a paved patio area perfect for entertaining, a lawned area with well-stocked terraces and borders with an evocative trellis and a sheltered pergola seating area. Beyond this is a paved and gravelled area, a raised vegetable bed, a shed and an array of fruit trees. The agents have never before come across a garden with seven double power points, three taps and lighting as well as a useful open porch and additional storage for garden furniture.

Abigail Mansfield, branch manager of Westcoast Properties in Weston-Super-Mare, said: “This handsome 1920’s home is an absolute credit to the current owners, who have luxuriously perfected the blend of old and new, both inside and out. Aldwick’s Arts & Crafts style is hard to miss, and the splendour of the property only gets better and better as you walk around it. This is a truly amazing home in a fantastic location.”
