A red-brick, Grade II listed cottage presented as a thoughtfully updated family home in Bredon, set at the foot of Bredon Hill. The house keeps much of its period charm — exposed beams, original fireplaces and dormer windows — while offering generous living space across c.1,413 sq ft, including three reception rooms and three bedrooms.
The rear is a walled, west-facing garden with a raised deck and lawn that makes a private entertaining and play space. Practical updates include a modern bathroom with roll-top bath and separate shower, a fitted kitchen-diner with Belfast sink and a cosy sitting room with a stove. Connectivity is strong with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and local amenities, riverside walks and a highly regarded primary school are within easy reach.
Important considerations: the listed status imposes restrictions that will affect future alterations and repairs; conservation requirements can add cost and delay. The property shows solid-brick construction with assumed lack of cavity insulation, the EPC is F and drainage is private — buyers should allow for energy and potential services improvements. There is also a medium flooding risk for the area, so searches and appropriate insurance are essential.
Overall, Monks Close suits a family seeking a village cottage that blends period character with recent renovation, offering comfortable, versatile accommodation and a private garden — provided the new owner is comfortable with listed-building constraints and planned energy or drainage upgrades.
