Bredwardine, Hereford, Herefordshire, HR3 6BZ

A Substantial Period Residence with Character, Gardens and an Attached Cottage

Set within the beautiful Herefordshire countryside, Bredwardine Hall is an impressive period residence offering a rare combination of space, character and versatility. This is a rare opportunity to purchase the property, having not been marketed for around 28 years. Extending to approximately 5,117 sq ft, the property is complemented by an attached cottage, generous gardens and grounds, a double garage and a range of useful outbuildings.

From the moment you arrive, the property has an unmistakable sense of presence, approached via a sweeping driveway which leads to a generous parking and turning area. The accommodation within the main house is beautifully proportioned, with a grand entrance hall providing access to the principal reception rooms.

The drawing room is an elegant and welcoming space, featuring a period-style fireplace and views across the surrounding gardens. A separate dining room provides an impressive setting for entertaining, again benefiting from a character fireplace and views across the front gardens. There is also a library and a study, offering a quieter space for working from home or relaxing.

At the heart of the house, the kitchen overlooks the courtyard. A useful utility room and downstairs cloakroom with walk-in shower add further practicality to the ground floor.

Upstairs, the main house provides four generously proportioned double bedrooms, each enjoying views across the gardens and surrounding countryside, together with four bathrooms.

The adjoining cottage adds a particularly appealing element of flexibility. Comprising a reception room, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom, it could provide comfortable accommodation for guests, extended family or those looking for a separate space for work or other uses.

Outside, the property is surrounded by established gardens and grounds, with mature planting, trees and shrubs creating a peaceful and private setting. The grounds include greenhouses and a wood store, while a courtyard provides access to the workshop, cottage and rear of the main house. A detached double garage and extensive driveway provide ample parking.

Bredwardine Hall offers an exceptional amount of accommodation and considerable versatility, combining the grandeur and character of a substantial period home with the practical benefits of additional accommodation and extensive outside space.

Situated in the sought-after rural setting of Bredwardine, this is a property that truly needs to be viewed to appreciate the scale, character and setting on offer. The property also has an interesting connection to local history, having featured in the diaries of Francis Kilvert, who stayed at the house.
