40, Fernlea Road, Weston-super-mare, BS22 8NE

This is the kind of home that suits people who want more than just square footage.

Somewhere practical and comfortable day to day, but with enough flexibility to shape around hobbies, work, family life and quieter moments at home too.

Set on Fernlea Road, near to Weston-super-Mare town, the home has a calm, established feel from the outset.

Behind the gated driveway, with parking for two cars, there’s a home that has clearly evolved carefully over time rather than being altered for appearance alone.

Inside, the layout works well for modern living. There are four genuinely good sized bedrooms, three with built-in wardrobes, alongside a family bathroom and an en-suite to the main bedroom.

Using one of the bedrooms as an office gives proper space for working from home without taking over the dining table, while the utility room helps keep everyday clutter tucked away.

The kitchen has been modernised with a clean, practical finish and opens naturally into the rhythm of the house rather than feeling over designed.

In the lounge, the 5.5kw log burning stove gives the room its focal point and makes it an easy place to settle into during colder months.

What makes this home memorable though is what sits beyond the expected.

The heated indoor fish pond, around 6ft deep, is currently used for koi carp but could equally become a compact private pool or wellness space for someone wanting something a little different.

The separate garden building, has its own 35kw boiler which heats both the building and water, giving future owners plenty of flexibility depending on how they live.

Outside, the garden feels useful and relaxed rather than overly manicured.

There’s room for growing vegetables, keeping chickens, entertaining friends or simply letting children disappear outside for the afternoon.

The five-seater hot tub adds another layer to how the space can be enjoyed all year round, while the large garage offers valuable storage or workshop potential.

The house has also been updated with long-term practicality in mind, including 14 solar panels, two 6.4kw battery storage systems and an electric car charging point already installed.

Whilst having the solar panels fitted, the roof was also re-felted and battened at the same time. Fernlea Road is well placed for everyday life in Weston-super-Mare.

Local shops, supermarkets, schools and healthcare services are all within easy reach, while the seafront and town centre remain close enough to enjoy without living in the middle of the busier parts of town.

Worle and Weston-super-Mare train stations both provide direct routes towards Bristol and access to the M5 is straightforward for commuters heading further afield.

Weston itself continues to attract people looking for a better balance between space, coastline and connectivity. It’s a town where people still make proper use of the outdoors.

Beaches, parks, nearby countryside all while remaining connected enough for working life to feel manageable
