Situated atop Burwalls House, the former Grade II Listed Bristol home of the famous Wills family, The Penthouse occupies one of the most significant positions in Bristol, with stunning views across its own parklike communal gardens and grounds towards Clifton suspension bridge, Clifton and south across Bristol to Dundry Hill and Bedminster Down.

The Burwalls estate is without doubt one of the most exclusive enclaves in the south-west of England; nestled in its own grounds of some 4 acres, shared between just a few lucky residents and only a moment from Leigh Woods Nature Reserve and across Brunel's iconic suspension bridge into Clifton village itself.

Accessed by car via a private gated driveway, or by foot via a pedestrian entrance literally on the edge of the Bridge, it presents an oasis of calm and beauty on the edge of the city.

The Penthouse is most easily accessed via the lift; with a security key enabling access directly into the Penthouse apartment itself; with secondary access from the first floor landing via a communal staircase if required.

Arranged over the top (second floor) of this iconic building it extends to some 2400 sq ft, plus a private roof terrace and charming balcony.

With three double bedrooms, two bath / shower rooms (one en-suite) a stunning dual aspect sitting room and a well-appointed kitchen it creates an immensely flexible floor space; ideal for families, those looking to downsize or a fabulous Bristol pied a terre.

The roof terrace is exquisite; accessed off the generous hallway with an expanse of decked terrace to take in the jaw-dropping views and an ideal space for outdoor dining, a BBQ, to catch the last of the day's sun and of course, during fiesta week, to take in the Balloons.

The house itself is approached by a beautiful parkland driveway, with gated access from Burwalls Road, and two allocated parking spaces to the side of the building.

The communal gardens are of course sublime and beautiful kept; 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.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
