Westerleigh Road, Bristol, BS16

The Property
Emfor View is a unique architect-designed detached home set within approximately 0.6 acres of mature gardens on the outskirts of Pucklechurch village. Built in 2013 to an exceptional standard, this individual property offers over 2,860 sq. ft. of versatile accommodation, combining contemporary living, impressive energy efficiency and outstanding outdoor space.

The welcoming entrance hall showcases the quality on offer, featuring a striking solid oak staircase and bespoke handmade leaded-glass feature light boxes.

At the heart of the home is a large air-conditioned open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, designed for family life and entertaining. With granite worktops, central island, quality kitchen units and log-burning stove, it’s flooded with natural light from clerestory windows and enjoys views across the gardens through large patio doors. A Bose sound system serves much of the house and garden, while the separate snug provides a cosy retreat and offers flexibility as an additional bedroom if required

Upstairs, the principal bedroom benefits from air con and a private balcony overlooking the garden. A further double bedroom, family bathroom and dedicated study area complete the first floor. A bedroom with en-suite wet room and patio doors opening onto the garden provides accommodation for guests, independent living or multi-generational family arrangements on the ground floor.

The property achieves an EPC rating of A, having an air source heat pump, underfloor heating throughout, solar thermal hot water, PV panels with battery storage, heat-recovery ventilation providing fresh filtered air, full-fibre broadband, EV charging and high-performance triple-glazed windows.

Rarely do homes of this quality, individuality and versatility become available in a village-edge setting, offering the perfect balance of countryside living and modern convenience.

Annexe
The detached workroom is a particularly versatile space, extending to approximately 7.5m x 4.5m and benefiting from underfloor heating, attractive herringbone tiled flooring, two rooflights, patio doors and additional windows that flood the room with natural light.

Currently used for storage during the owners' ongoing self-build project, the space does not presently reflect its full potential. To help illustrate its versatility, a number of AI-generated visualisations have been produced showing how it could be used as a home office, music studio, gym, hobby room, teenager's retreat or additional entertaining space.

Subject to any necessary planning permissions and building regulation approvals, there may also be potential to create additional accommodation through the conversion of the adjoining garage, making it suitable for multi-generational living, a dependent relative, or adult family members seeking a degree of independence whilst remaining close to home.

Few properties offer such flexible ancillary accommodation, capable of adapting to changing family and lifestyle needs over time.

Gardens
The gardens are a particular feature of the property, extending to approximately 0.6 acres and providing a blend of ornamental planting, productive growing space and wildlife habitat.
So highly regarded are the gardens that they have twice been selected to host the Pucklechurch Summer Garden Party, a distinction rarely afforded to the same garden.

To the rear, the east-facing gardens enjoy spectacular sunrises and offer a peaceful and private setting. Mature borders are richly planted with shrubs, perennials and spring bulbs, ensuring year-round interest and colour with minimal effort. A substantial and productive walnut tree provides shade and character, while two ponds, including a dedicated wildlife pond, attract a wide variety of wildlife. Common newts and frogs thrive here, whilst the gardens regularly welcome deer, rabbits and foxes, and the occasional otter. Birdlife is particularly abundant, with finches, woodpeckers and many other species frequently seen, whilst kingfishers have been occasional visitors.

The productive orchard includes Bramley, Discovery, Cox's Orange Pippin and Russet apple trees, together with plum, pear and cherry trees. For keen gardeners, there are three raised vegetable beds, a greenhouse and an impressive orangery with Victorian tiled flooring, ideal for growing, entertaining or simply relaxing whilst enjoying views of the garden.

Practical features include a large timber garage/workshop with power and lighting, ideal as a hobby room, workshop or garden store, together with a traditional hen house and small greenhouse.

The front garden enjoys a sunny west-facing aspect, mature planting and an historic well with pump, providing the perfect vantage point from which to enjoy stunning evening sunsets. A developing Photinia hedge to the side boundary will provide increasing privacy as it matures.

The property also benefits from immediate access to countryside walks with beautiful views across the Boyd Valley.
