A charming Grade II listed detached cottage, Bradnor Cottage combines period character with a modern and beautifully updated interior, creating a home that feels both individual and incredibly practical. Set within the popular village of Marden, the property has been thoughtfully improved throughout while retaining the features and proportions that give a period home its appeal.

Inside, the accommodation is arranged over two floors and offers excellent flexibility. The ground floor provides a generous living room, separate dining room and a well-appointed kitchen, together with a useful snug which could equally work as a fourth bedroom, home office or additional reception space. The rooms have been updated with a modern feel while retaining plenty of character, creating comfortable spaces for both everyday living and entertaining.

The living room is a particularly inviting space, with a feature fireplace providing a focal point and large windows bringing plenty of natural light into the room. The separate dining room provides a lovely setting for entertaining, with doors opening directly onto the covered outdoor area, creating a fantastic connection between the house and garden.

The kitchen has also been updated and offers a practical arrangement of units and work surfaces, space for range cooker and pleasant breakfast bar area, whilst the ground floor also benefits from a large modern shower room.
Upstairs are three good-sized bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom, together with an en suite shower room. The accommodation provides plenty of flexibility for families, couples or those looking for space to work from home.

Outside, the property benefits from private and enclosed gardens, offering a surprising amount of space and privacy for a village cottage. A covered outdoor dining area provides an excellent space for entertaining and enjoying the garden throughout the year, whilst the remainder of the gardens are well enclosed and designed for easy enjoyment, with large lawn area and additional courtyard space. The combination of lawned areas, mature planting and private seating spaces creates a lovely outdoor setting.

Bradnor Cottage offers the best of both worlds – a characterful Grade II listed home with plenty of original charm, but with the work already undertaken to create a modern and comfortable property. With its detached position, private gardens, excellent entertaining space and flexible accommodation, it is a particularly appealing home in a sought-after Marden location.
