Description
Whilst extremely well placed for swift access to Bristol city centre and the
motorway and rail, Bruin Wood is completely hidden from the road being set at
the head of an exceptionally long and impressive driveway and occupying a
commanding elevated position. The approach sweeps through the generous
grounds, past lawns and sloping areas of woodland with an area of paddock and
culminated in a turning area to the front and further parking with extensive
garaging and parking to the rear.
The well loved family home has been in the same ownership since 1997,
whereupon it was completely remodelled and redesigned to create an outstanding
home befitting this wonderful location.
Whilst day to day informal access for residents would be via the side
entrance, the flight of steps to the front leading into the magnificent
reception hallway is certainly creates a striking statement for more formal
occasions. The central staircase with galleried landing is a classic detail
replicating those often found in country houses from an earlier period.
The house has an uncluttered and simple elegance with both ornate and plain
plaster cornicing and many floor to ceiling windows from which to take in the
parkland views. The 30’ L - shaped kitchen/ breakfast room is a key feature of
the home which offers a terrific degree of flexibility for any future owner –
the lower ground floor for example could make a wonderful self - contained
annexe for a dependant relative. Likewise, the second floor with a bedroom
suite and fitness area could be an fully independent apartment for a teenager.
All six principal bedrooms are on the first floor with six bathrooms,
including a superb 32’ main suite.
The grounds that surround the property are a fine feature of the home with
areas of manicured, level lawns, bluebell woods and a large expanse of
terracing perfect for al fresco dining. The lawns are interspersed by a number
of ornamental trees with a lovely backdrop of mature specimen trees framing
the borders of the estate.
