About this property
Situated in the heart of the popular village of Kemerton, on the southern side of Bredon Hill, this beautiful detached family home provides flexible accommodation arranged over two main floors, with additional cellar space below. Extending to approximately 3,209 square feet (3,820 sq ft including garaging and outbuildings) and set in almost half an acre, the property has been sympathetically modernised but still retains a variety of fine period features. Georgian, but not historically listed, it offers a good balance of living space with traditional outbuildings and stunning mature gardens making it well suited to family living.
The orientation of the house combined with large sash windows mean the house is naturally very light. The ground floor is larger than the first floor having been extended on separate occasions and includes three well-proportioned reception rooms, comprising a drawing room, reception room and dining room, together with a separate study. An orangery provides an additional light-filled living space, creating a strong connection with the garden. The kitchen/breakfast room offers ample space for everyday dining and entertaining, supported by practical ancillary areas including a utility room and cloakroom.
There are two staircases to the first floor. Overlooking the garden, the principal suite has a dressing room (bedroom 5) and a recently updated en suite shower room. There is a guest bedroom with an en-suite and two further bedrooms served by a family bathroom.
Outside, the gardens are a particular feature of the property. Fully enclosed, partly walled and south facing, the main part of the garden is encompassed by mature trees and hedge borders. Gravelled paths extend around the edge of the garden, flanked by pretty borders and centring on the large dining terrace and the lawn. There is a well established and productive vegetable garden complete with a greenhouse, a herb garden and numerous private seating areas from where to take it all in.
On the other side of the house, there is parking for numerous cars, a detached garage and a charming traditional outbuilding that has potential for a variety of ancillary uses, subject to individual needs.
Services: Sky broadband. Fibre to village, copper to house. All mains services are connected.
