Village
Set in an idyllic position beneath the gentle slopes of Bredon Hill, this exceptional Victorian home offers approximately 4,233 sq. ft. of beautifully restored accommodation, arranged over three floors (not including the outbuildings). The home retains charming period features, seamlessly blended with modern comforts and finishes to create a stylish and welcoming family home.
Approached via electric wrought iron gates and a recently planted roadside hedge, the property is set well back from the lane surrounded by mature, landscaped gardens. The grounds extend to include beautifully planted formal gardens, a paddock, and a charming commercial cottage garden currently cultivated for cut flowers-all set against the picturesque backdrop of Bredon Hill.
Accommodation
At the heart of the home is a stunning open-plan kitchen and reception area, extending to an impressive 34 feet. This space is designed for both family life and entertaining, centred around a large island and Aga, with a generous dining area at the far end. A newly constructed conservatory provides a link to the former coach house, where stairs lead to a spacious open-plan first floor-ideal for use as a home office, studio, or guest suite.
The formal drawing room, with its original fireplace, stone mullion windows, and working shutters, enjoys a dual south-westerly aspect overlooking the gardens. A second sitting room offers flexibility as an additional reception space, playroom, or snug, the fireplace fitted with a modern wood burner and large windows that flood the room with natural light.
Other very practical spaces include a home office, a utility room and a cloakroom. The cellar stairs lead to two fully tanked and very useful rooms, one currently used as very accessible storage and the other is fitted out as a very cool bar/party space!
Bedrooms and Bathrooms
The property includes five well-proportioned bedrooms and three beautifully appointed bathrooms, arranged across the upper floors. Each room is thoughtfully designed to capture light and character, creating a calm and elegant living environment.
Outside
The exterior spaces are equally impressive, with a beautifully planted walled garden located off the kitchen, providing a secluded suntrap throughout the year. Additional grounds include an area of former orchard and a small versatile partly fenced paddock. Various outbuildings, include log stores and the original coach house (currently used for storage but suitable for garaging) also lend themself to being converted into more accommodation subject to the necessary consents. There is a hard standing for a field shelter or stabling subject to any nessacary consents. The land would need to be appropriately fenced for livestock. There are NO public rights of way across the property.
The Flower Business
Set over around an acre of the site, there is a fully established cottage garden business on the site that includes well-stocked commercial flower beds, a poly tunnel and a well for watering. The business is transferable and can be moved unless a prospective purchaser would be interested in acquiring the business.
Services: Mains waste, water, electricity and gas are connected. A hard wired CCTV system. A recently installed well provides pumped water to the cottage garden business. Available by separate negotiation and otherwise set to be removed, there is an EV charging point and currently an array of solar photovoltaic panels located at the far end of the paddock/plot.
