A prestigious four-bedroom, four reception room stone character Grade ll Listed semi detached home which enjoys gardens and grounds of around half an acre in the sought after village of Long Bredy in the beautiful Bride Valley. Grade II Listed.

The Property - The property is situated towards the edge of the charming and popular village of Long Bredy. The house benefits from some far reaching countryside views and sits within its grounds of approximately half an acre.

The house has been sympathetically extended by the current owners to create a large, well-balanced home. The large studio is fully incorporated into the property and is particularly flexible in its future use.

From the entrance hall there is a door to a large, fully renovated room currently used as an Artist’s studio. It is of excellent proportions, has underfloor heating and appreciates open aspects across the garden. The room has vaulted ceilings, an abundance of double glazing and open doorways which lead out to both aspects and connects the space to the garden beyond. This room could be used as a further and generous reception room, games room, annexe or home office, it is exceptionally flexible.

From the entrance and inner hall, the kitchen/breakfast room can be found which forms a real heart of the home, offering plenty of space for a farmhouse kitchen table and having a range of bespoke wooden built in units and an Aga. There is a utility off this room and a downstairs shower room which again makes the home far more convenient. French doors lead to a terraced courtyard which is very private and has beautiful views across the garden. To the side of the courtyard is an enviable larder and store.

Beyond the kitchen sits a formal dining room with a small ancillary space just off which would make for an excellent study area or further library or store. There is a large reception room to the side which is currently utilised as a library and home office and a sitting room lies to the front of the house offering a peaceful ambiance. This room has a dual aspect and a wood burning stove.

Stairs lead to the first floor where there are four double bedrooms of excellent proportions, some having built in storage. There is a family bathroom, separate shower room and the principal bedroom to the rear of the house overlooks the gardens.

Outside - The house is approached via its own driveway with plenty of parking which then leads to the entrance. Outside, the grounds are spacious to the front and rear, extending to approximately 0.5 acres. The gardens are predominately of level lawn and stretch down towards the prolific vegetable plot. An area to the left of the main garden holds a building currently used as a home office which is insulated and is provisioned with electricity, water and internet.

The perimeter of the garden is private with an abundance of mature trees. There is plenty of opportunity here for further scope subject to the new owner’s wishes. There is a sizable greenhouse within the rear garden as well as wood stores and sheds.
