Burwalls, Leigh Woods, Bristol BS8 3DS

Overwood is, quite simply, a superb detached modern house, situated in one of the most exclusive gated estates in the South West. Completed in 2016 it forms part of a small development of family houses and luxury lateral apartments, sharing between them some five acres of communal gardens and grounds. With “Burwalls House” to the east (a former home of the Wills family) comprising the apartments, Overwood was built towards the western edge of the estate, accessed via a shared gated driveway from Burwalls Road. To the north is the open expanse of Leigh Woods nature reserve, whilst to the west is a further circa 800 acres of public parkland surrounding the Ashton Court estate. Internally the house has been thoughtfully arranged, maximising its sunny position with natural light pouring in from each elevation.

The open plan family kitchen is beautifully appointed, with an oversize central island, expanse of floor and wall-mounted storage cupboards and range of integrated appliance including a wine fridge, full height fridge / freezer and a dishwasher. It is the perfect entertaining space and opens seamlessly to the dining area, with a recessed feature fireplace and bay-window.

The sitting room is exquisite, some 23' deep with a triple aspect, wood-burning stove and access via glazed French doors to a recently fitted conservatory, withy air-conditioning, leading out into a west facing garden.

The sitting room wraps around into the versatile study space, equally useful as a play room or library which can also access the conservatory, via glazed French doors, and then out into the garden.

In addition the ground floor boasts a fully fitted utility room and a separate cloakroom with a w.c and wash basin.

Upstairs, the house enjoys four bedrooms across the first floor, with the master-bedroom and guest-bedroom having luxury en-suite facilities along with built-in wardrobes. Bedrooms three and four enjoy the use of a fully fitted family bathroom.

It is worth noting bedroom four has been re-furbished by the current owners to provide a walk-in wardrobe / dressing room, but could easily be returned to a bedroom space if required.

Upstairs, the owners have sympathetically converted the loft to create a suite of three rooms; comprising two bedrooms, an en-suite cloakroom and walk-in dressing room.

Outside:

Overwood is approached by a wide paved pathway flanked by attractive mature hedging and planted borders.

The private rear and side gardens enjoy a sunny south-south-west orientation, capturing much of the day's sun and have been softly landscaped for year-round colour and form.

The double garage provides space for two vehicles, with additional visitor parking available both opposite the house and closer to Burwalls House, if required. It is fully fitted with an EV charge point and has direct access into the rear garden.

The circa 5 acres of communal gardens are of course exquisite; with a huge expanse of lawn and wonderful wooded walks and shaded lawns to relax in and unwind. A real treat to have so much space shared between so few people situated between Clifton village and the open countryside.
