The Grange, a historic former vicarage nestled on the outskirts of Bream in the scenic Forest of Dean, presents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts and investors. This striking property occupies roughly a third of an acre and features various outbuildings that add to its charm and potential. Retaining much of its original character, including window shutters, intricate panelling, and traditional fireplaces, it offers a canvas for restoration while keeping the essence of its era intact.
Spanning three floors, the expansive accommodation includes spacious reception rooms with features such as original cast iron radiators and exposed floorboards that further enhance its appeal. The layout includes a large cellar accessible from both the hall via an ornate spiral staircase and from the garden, suggesting additional possibilities for development or use.
Despite requiring considerable investment to fully modernise areas such as the kitchen—which is in need of complete refurbishment—the home’s overall size and structure allow for substantial flexibility in design. The first floor accommodates four generously sized bedrooms alongside a family bathroom that also demands updating. Meanwhile, the second floor holds two additional sizeable bedrooms within the converted attic space.
Outside, this residence is complemented by a large level garden primarily laid to lawn, ample parking provisions, and multiple stone outbuildings including a solidly constructed garage. With good transport links to Gloucester, Bristol, and Cardiff within commuting distance, The Grange is not only a desirable country residence but also presents significant potential for development with careful renovation.
