Monks Bridge is tucked away from main roads in an idyllic corner of Warwickshire, nestled within its own wonderfully private grounds and accessed via a long and winding driveway. The main house was built in 1837 as a vicarage for the neighbouring church – over which there are delightful views – with two wings added in the 1890s. More recently, the house has been subject to an extensive renovation including extensions, a wealth of cosmetic updates and wide-ranging landscaping to the magnificent grounds. Additional updates include rewiring, replumbing, new windows and refurbishment of the roof; though an older and historically significant property it is unlisted. Combined with its abundant and varied grounds, the substantial house offers a wealth of space internally, in addition to a separate self-contained annexe, making it well suited to larger families or those keen on entertaining at home.

Beautifully landscaped grounds provide a stunning backdrop for relaxing, leisure and entertaining, with about 14 acres of space divided into formal gardens, rolling parkland, mature woodland, terraces for entertaining and a number of different leisure spaces. Most notable is the enclosed hardcourt tennis court and the outdoor gym, which features a number of outdoor training machines. The stunning formal gardens have been opened to the public as part of the National Garden Scheme. With detailed planting and box hedges, laid out in a parterre style, while paved walkways, manicured lawns, water features and flower gardens provide areas for contemplation. The grounds provide excellent walking for dogs or otherwise without even leaving the property, however there is direct access from the estate to local footpaths which lead around the village and unspoilt surrounding countryside. Keen gardeners will appreciate the orchard and fruitful kitchen garden, with its greenhouses, and there are a number of additional versatile outbuildings including a double garage, triple car port, workshop and machinery stores, as well as an estate office with WC and a separate two room gym.
Situation
A charming village in South Warwickshire, Butlers Marston is one mile from Kineton, which provides a range of amenities including convenience stores, a florist, award-winning bakery, a selection of restaurants and doctor and veterinary surgeries. More extensive amenities can be found in Stratford-upon-Avon (10 miles), internationally famous as the birthplace of William Shakespeare and home to the Royal Shakespeare Theatre. It is also a prosperous riverside market town which provides South Warwickshire with a wide range of national and local stores, fine restaurants and inns, a good choice of public and private schools and excellent sporting and recreational amenities.
For education, primary schools can be found in the nearby villages of Kineton and Tysoe and there is easy access to Stratford and Warwick schools, as well as Bloxham School and Tudor Hall. Road and rail communications are excellent, with direct rail links to London and Birmingham from Leamington Spa and easy access to the major motorways including M40, M42 and M5. The Fosse Way lies a short distance away for access to The Cotswolds which can be reached in less than 15 minutes. Soho Farmhouse, a private members club near Chipping Norton, and Daylesford Organic Farm Shop are both 20 miles distant. The area is famous for its walking and riding, with a footpath directly accessible from the property.

Additional Information
Interior:- A striking first impression is afforded by the imposing reception hall, which has a Victorian quarry-tiled floor, a lantern roof and a cantilevered staircase rising through the centre of the house. The rooms are well arranged off the reception hall, with the formal reception rooms positioned on the south-west side of the house to enjoy the finest views: The sitting room, drawing room, library and garden room all look out over the pleasingly symmetrical formal gardens. The kitchen is a modern addition completed in 2016 and incorporates elegant, white-painted cabinetry with premium Miele appliances and an expansive breakfast bar in a light-filled room perfectly appointed for family life. Adjoining the kitchen is a dining room, breakfast room, laundry and craft room, while there are further informal spaces for the family including a morning room, second craft room and a large boot room ideal for dogs. At cellar level there are useful wine stores and a boiler room. Upstairs, the six double bedrooms are arranged around a galleried landing; all bedrooms are ensuite, and the principal bedroom also has its own private balcony and dressing room.
In addition to the main house there is a self-contained brick-built former coach house which has been converted to a useful two-bedroom annexe, ideally suited to multigenerational living such as older children or grandparents living at home, guest or staff accommodation. The coach house is presented to a high standard and includes a living room, kitchen, two ensuite double bedrooms and a study.
