Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Bristol, BS32 :

Sundown is quietly nestled between the sought after villages of Almondsbury and Easter Compton, on the ever popular Over Lane. Approached via a gated discreet driveway accessed from a private road, the view as you drive over the brow is the first clue as to the magical setting of this fabulous family home. There are both highly regarded state and independent schools within the neighbouring towns and villages, from primary through to secondary including Almondsbury Primary school and Marlwood (secondary) in the state sector, and Tockington Manor (Prep), Clifton College and Badminton School for girls in the independent sector. Almondsbury (apx 0.5 miles) is a popular village within South Gloucestershire with a community shop, doctor’s surgery, garden centre, a Primary School, local church and The Bowl Inn public house; complete with guest rooms above. With easy access to junction 16 of the M5, the area is ideal for commuters and those looking to have quick access to Bristol City Centre (apx 7.7 miles) as well as the excellent shopping available at Cribbs Causeway (apx 2 miles), Thornbury (4 miles) and Easter Compton farm shop (1.3 miles). SundownSundown is an aptly named detached family house, positioned in one of the most breath taking settings imaginable. With 180 degree views from much of the house, gardens and grounds, its vista sweeps across the Severn estuary, taking in Wales beyond and the span of both bridge crossings. More than that however, it looks out over its own fully enclosed paddock and across the green and verdant pastures to the estuary beyond. Originally dating from the 1930’s, the house has since been significantly extended and updated and now provides a wonderfully comfortable family home in a truly stunning setting. Accessed via a gated driveway, the house has an abundance of parking – both gravelled and tarmac with a five bar gate leading into the enclosed paddock. A separate gate leads to the house, via an ornamental bridge across two Carp Ponds – as well as a separate path leading to a secondary access at the rear. Internally, the house is approached via a pillared entrance – with the master suite and guest bedroom’s galleried balcony running above. The entrance hall presents a welcoming tone, with a stripped wooden floor providing a colonial feel – and access to each of the ground floor reception rooms. These are currently arranged as an elegant sitting room to the front, complete with a carved stone fireplace and coal effect gas fire; as well as a beautifully proportioned library on the opposite side of the hallway – complete with an expanse of fitted book shelves and French doors leading out to the garden. Both rooms each enjoy a wonderful curved bay window – each with windows seats and each taking in the breath taking and substantial view. To the rear is a generous 25’ family kitchen & dining room – with French doors leading out to a paved hard standing. The kitchen units are bespoke to Sundown, and allow for a range of floor and wall mounted storage, as well as a central island and space for an American style fridge / freezer. Adjacent to the kitchen is a useful utility room, with rear access to the driveway and car parks. In addition, this floor boasts a contemporary shower room – with “his and hers” sinks, a walk-in shower cubicle and w.c. This is ideal for those coming in from long walks / bike or horse rides – or if the children have been playing in the paddock. Upstairs lie four superb double bedrooms – each accessed via the elegant and light filled landing. This has been opened up to provide a comfortable space, and even enjoys enough room for a baby grand piano. The stunning master bedroom suite and the guest bedroom both have access out onto a galleried balcony taking in the full expanse of the stunning view. The two further double bedrooms each enjoy a dual aspect and their own superb views, as well as sharing the family bathroom; complete with a three piece suite and integrated shower above the bath. Over the second floor lies a dramatic games room – providing potential floor space for a fifth bedroom (subject to building regulations and consent). Currently however it is arranged as a generous playroom with enough space for a snooker table, small gym and fully equipped bar! There is also access to an extensive range of eaves storage. Gardens & GroundsThe gardens and grounds of Sundown are a true delight, and a prominent feature as to the uniqueness of this wonderful home. Surrounding the house, and accessed from French doors in both the kitchen and library are level mature gardens with an expanse of lawn and hard-standing. A perfect place for a family to enjoy and entertain in, whilst taking in the stunning vista. Surrounding these gardens are a range of wonderfully mature “garden rooms”; with a small copse to the rear enjoying seasonal Bluebell walks; a hidden and mature fruit orchard and a small wildlife reserve accessed via a bridge over a small pond. This is overlooked by a charming summer house. At the foot of the house however is a substantial paddock, sweeping away from the house and providing it with its glorious views. Fully enclosed, this is an ideal space for ponies or a small amount of livestock – enabling you to gaze over your own farm animals or horses. Alternatively, one can just enjoy the privacy – and the knowledge that the view in-front is most unlikely to change. In all, the gardens and grounds are circa 10 acres. ParkingAt the end of the long driveway is tarmac hard standing for several vehicles, with a smaller drive leading down to a gravelled area for more expansive parking for a number of vehicles. There is access to a workshop complete with power and light, and a five bar gate leading into the paddock for tractor access.
