Brayswick Bank is a wonderfully located detached cottage in a quiet semi rural location in its own grounds approaching one acre of formal garden. Whilst this property is characterful it is not listed and offers boundless potential.

The house is initially approached via a track that leads to a five bar vehicular gate. The driveway continues through the garden to a number of useful outbuildings. The property is set at the back of its plot and benefits from fine views over open farmland. The original parts of the cottage date back to the 1840's and has been in the ownership of the same family since it was purchased from the Beauchamp Estate. The house and grounds appear on the 1884 Ordance Survey map of Worcestershire. More recently the current family members completed a sympathetic extension to the property in 2003 assisted by a local architect and craftsman to create a modern country living environment in a spectacular setting.
The original cottage is of brick construction under a tiled roof. The main entrance of the house is to the southern aspect and is of glazed, brick and oak construction under a tiled roof that creates a vestibule with flagstone floor and hardwood front door opening to the accommodation.

Internally the accommodation comprises of some charming family-orientated spaces set over two floors with an additional attic space which offers versatility and flexibility in its use. Throughout the house there is a mix of Victorian cast iron radiators alongside more contemporary styling, with the whole property enjoying double glazing.

The original period front door with wonderful ornate lock and key opens to the welcoming entrance hall where the the original winder staircase rises to the first floor and is open to the inner hall. On the right, a glazed door opens to a cosy dual aspect sitting room with an LPG stove set into a feature fireplace with wooden mantel and quarry tiled hearth. From the aspects of this room delightful views are on offer over the formal garden and surrounding countryside. Opposite, across the tiled hall, is a second sitting room with flagstone floor and a wood burning stove set into an exposed brick fireplace. This dual aspect room is flooded with natural light.

Moving through to the newer part of the house, a door to the right opens to a ground floor shower room/cloakroom. Opposite, the fitted laundry room complements the kitchen. From this inner hall a second open wooden balustraded staircase rises to the first floor.

One of the key selling points of the property is the large, family orientated living-kitchen dining space, this being the extension that added by the current owners in 2003. This open-planned living space has dual aspect double-glazed French doors which give access to the gardens. A focal point of this room is the wood burning Villager stove set into the fireplace with wooden mantel and a flagstone hearth. It is open to the breakfast kitchen that is fitted with a range of modern units including a sink, integrated NEFF appliances (fridge-freezer, dishwasher) and a Rangemaster Stove. This room also enjoys dual aspect, with rooflights to the western aspect and an impressive vaulted ceiling. A quarry tiled floor leads to the boot room, which has a sink and fitted cupboards matching those to the kitchen. A door from the boot room leads to an additional cloakroom. This faces the backdoor which gives access to the garden.

First Floor
Accessed from either staircase and allowing access to the bedroom accommodation. Master bedroom with superb views and En-suite with modern shower and fittings. Further three good sized bedrooms, and a landing space, currently used as a home office. From this room, the original winder staircase rises up to the attic space, which is ideal for storage and enjoying light, power and central heating with dual aspect double glazed windows at each end.

The first floor is further complemented and serviced by the family bathroom. There is also a generous airing cupboard on the landing.

Outside the grounds wrap around the property to all sides with the majority of the garden being positioned to the front aspect. All enclosed by a hedged and fenced perimeter with vehicular gated access to the lane. Interspersed throughout the garden are a number of mature specimen trees including including several varieties of apple, pears, cherries, walnuts and plums positioned in a small orchard area to the side of the driveway. A wonderful Wisteria climbs across the house.

There is a range of outbuildings also covered with Wisteria. Throughout the garden there are a number of shaped beds and a greenhouse and outside tap. The outbuildings include a single garage with open carport to either side. There is a useful garden store that was previously the piggery.
