Occupying the first and second floors of a well-maintained building on the ever popular Highfield Road, this impressive three bedroom maisonette offers spacious, well-planned accommodation with a wonderful sense of light and elevation. Enjoying far reaching open views, glimpses of the sea, and attractive vistas stretching out towards the Torrs, the property combines modern comforts with generous living spaces, making it an ideal home for couples, families, or anyone seeking a well-presented coastal residence with character and convenience. Beautifully arranged over two levels, the maisonette benefits from gas central heating, double glazing, and carpets throughout, ensuring a warm and comfortable feel year-round. Several thoughtful improvements have been made in recent years, including the installation of a modern shower room and the full redecoration of the master bedroom, bringing a fresh and contemporary feel to the upper floor. The accommodation begins on the first floor, where the bright and welcoming kitchen/diner forms the heart of the home. This practical and sociable space offers ample room for a family-sized dining table and includes provision for an American-style fridge-freezer, plumbing for a dishwasher, and space for a gas cooker. A 1.5 bowl sink with drainer adds extra convenience, making the kitchen perfect for day-to-day family living as well as entertaining. Just off the kitchen sits a highly useful utility room, offering dedicated space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer — an excellent addition that helps keep the main living areas uncluttered and organised. Adjacent to the kitchen, the lounge sits to the rear of the property and enjoys one of the home’s most attractive outlooks. A large window frames charming views stretching across to the Torrs, and the elevated position provides a pleasant sense of privacy and tranquillity. This is an inviting room, ideal for relaxing in the evenings or gathering with guests. The upper floor hosts three bedrooms along with the recently updated shower room. Two of the bedrooms are generous doubles, each offering its own appealing features. The main bedroom is particularly bright, thanks to the property’s east-facing orientation, and enjoys pleasant morning sunshine that enhances the fresh décor. The second double bedroom benefits from glimpses of the sea, adding a lovely coastal touch. The third bedroom is a well-proportioned single, making it a perfect child’s room, guest bedroom, dressing room, or home office. Completing the upper level is the newly fitted shower room, finished with contemporary fixtures and offering a clean, stylish space for daily use. One of the standout features of the maisonette is the roof terrace, accessed from the upper level. This outdoor space enjoys sunshine during the evening, making it a brilliant spot for dining, relaxing, or simply enjoying the elevated views after a long day. Its private feel and open outlook give it an appealing, almost hidden quality — a welcome bonus for anyone who enjoys spending time outdoors without leaving home. Externally, there is plenty of on-road parking available on the road outside, making access straightforward for residents and visitors alike. With its generous layout, modern touches, lovely views, and desirable location, The Maisonette at 20 Highfield Road presents a fantastic opportunity to purchase a comfortable and well appointed home with great natural light and a wonderfully versatile arrangement of space. It is perfectly suited to those looking for coastal living with everyday practicality, and its combination of features ensures it will appeal to a wide range of buyers.
