Description
Occupying one of the area's most commanding elevated positions, Hilltops is an exceptional detached residence enjoying breathtaking panoramic views across Portsmouth Harbour, The Solent and onwards to the Isle of Wight. Set within beautifully established grounds extending to just over an acre, this substantial family home offers approaching 3,000 sq ft of accommodation, complete privacy and outstanding potential to further enhance or extend (subject to the necessary planning consents). Accessed via impressive brick pillars and a sweeping driveway, the property is set well back from the road, creating an enviable sense of seclusion while remaining conveniently positioned for local amenities and transport links.
The accommodation has been thoughtfully designed to make the very most of its spectacular setting, with generous open-plan living spaces that flow effortlessly throughout the ground floor. A striking reception hall opens into a spacious lounge, where large picture windows perfectly frame the uninterrupted harbour views. The impressive garden room enjoys an abundance of natural light and opens directly onto the raised sun terrace, creating an outstanding space for entertaining or simply relaxing while taking in the ever-changing coastal backdrop. At the heart of the home is the beautifully appointed kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with an extensive range of quality cabinetry, granite worktops, integrated appliances and a substantial central island. The kitchen also enjoys direct access onto the terrace, while a generous triple-aspect dining room with French doors to the garden provides the perfect setting for both formal occasions and family gatherings. A cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.
The first floor continues to impress with five well-proportioned bedrooms. The magnificent principal suite features a vaulted ceiling, fitted furniture, a luxurious en-suite bathroom and French doors opening onto a Juliet balcony overlooking the gardens. Four further bedrooms, many enjoying the same outstanding panoramic sea views, are served by a contemporary family shower room, creating versatile accommodation ideal for growing families or visiting guests.
Outside, the grounds are a defining feature of this remarkable home. A long private driveway provides extensive parking for numerous vehicles, while the beautifully maintained gardens combine expansive lawns with mature planting and established boundaries that offer an exceptional level of privacy. The elevated decked sun terrace, complete with pergola, enjoys arguably the finest views from the property and provides an idyllic setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond, the rear gardens include a brick-built outbuilding together with a substantial enclosed vegetable and fruit garden, complemented by an attractive Victorian-style greenhouse. Rarely do homes of this scale, setting and potential become available, making Hilltops a truly unique opportunity. Early viewing is highly recommended.
