Wellington Terrace, Clevedon

‘This home will always be special for us. We love its combination of old and new. There are period features throughout but lots of modern touches. It’s light and bright, with many rooms which are dual aspect and have astonishing views over the water. There’s such a great choice of outdoor spaces so you can follow the sun, enjoy the view, relax in the pool or just enjoy the quiet stillness of the copse and its beautiful trees’

The home ~ Georgian grandeur

A beautiful example of late Georgian architecture, this Grade II listed detached home is arranged over three floors and enjoys sweeping sea views from almost every room. The home has been improved and extended with style and consideration throughout, with particular attention given to space, light, views and to preserving its unique history.

Each design decision has been made with quality in mind, with original features balanced beautifully against modern fittings, including Kohler bathroom suites, Miele appliances in the kitchen, and handwoven carpets in the upstairs bedrooms.

From the large living/entertaining space that opens onto a scenic patio, to cosy corners and an abundance of outdoor space, the home is incredibly flexible and offers a choice of spaces in which to work, relax, and entertain. The home would also lend itself to multi-generational living, either within the house itself or through conversion of the garage/studio space to the rear of the plot.

With an extensive renovation by the current owners from 2006 onwards, lots of thorough work has been completed including reconfiguration of the space, installation of central heating, a new roof and electrics. The fantastic glass fronted extension was then added and improvements have continued to be made over time, including the addition of a high-end outdoor kitchen and new Vaillant combi boilers installed three years ago to comfortably cope with the demands of this large home with five bathrooms.

The history ~ Stancliff through time

Stancliff is one of a pair of late Georgian homes which were both boarding schools. Stancliff was the larger of the two buildings, being arranged over three stories and believed to house the servants' kitchen with a service path running to the next door building.

In more recent years the building has been used as separate flats, before being converted into a substantial family home with a unique and generous plot providing privacy and unrivalled views.

Outside space ~ Sunsets and seclusion

The house sits on an expansive plot, elevated above Wellington Terrace to the front and spanning to Dial Hill Road at the rear, which provides level vehicle access. The house has its own private copse of trees, providing secluded, shaded space to enjoy as well as a play area, alongside several sunny terraces and seating areas–perfect sun traps where you can sit and enjoy uninterrupted sea views. A heated swimming pool completes the garden, blending sympathetically into the space and benefiting from a private spot shaded by a flowing Corsican Pine. Surrounded by solid Ipe wood decking, this is a unique space perfect for family garden parties or relaxing evenings at home.

Stancliff is a wonderful home for hosting guests and socialising outdoors, with plenty of outdoor seating areas and a brilliant flow from indoors to out. The modern glass extension leads onto the outdoor terrace which features a fire pit and integrated outdoor kitchen, complete with a picture frame window view of Clevedon Pier–a place to enjoy summer sunsets over the Bristol Channel, and in the darker winter months, to bask in daylight by the warmth of the fire.


Living in Clevedon ~ A vibrant seaside community

Overlooking the Pier and with sweeping sea views, this substantial home is centrally located in the heart of Clevedon. Just minutes from the seafront, the home has easy access to the Clevedon Coastal Path which connects the town with Portishead, and includes the peaceful spots of Ladye Bay, Margaret's Bay, and Walton Bay.

A few minutes walk from Wellington Terrace you’ll find Hill Road and Alexandra Road, both of which offer a choice of café’s, restaurants, independent clothes shops, book shops and art galleries. Fawn Coffee Shop is a lovely spot to grab your morning flat white, whilst Escala tapas bar, Murrays neighbourhood restaurant, and Puro are all highly regarded and bring a local challenge to the flourishing food scene of nearby Bristol.

Clevedon has a real abundance of green space and pleasant walks, including Alexandra Park and Dial Hill which are both minutes away from Wellington Terrace. For a longer walk, you can join the Poet’s Walk path which offers views out across the Bristol Channel and beautifully highlights the areas’ natural beauty.

Whilst Clevedon is well-positioned for those wanting to commute to Bristol, Cardiff, or London, it has evolved into a thriving town in its own right. Full of character and community, it’s a dynamic seaside town with a rich history, picturesque surroundings, and a vibrant independent scene.
