Bridges Court is a country home with the village on one side and open countryside the other. With history dating back beyond the 18th century the Cotswold stone property has much attraction and was once home of Sir Stewart Menzies, head of the British Secret Service, MI6. Bridges Court is grade II listed.
The property is ideal for entertaining with a reception hall, an impressive full height drawing room, sitting room and library as well as being a lovely family home with fine open fires and charming period features throughout. The dining room and kitchen could be incorporated to make an excellent open plan kitchen breakfast room.
There are 7 bedrooms with 5 bathrooms over two floors, all bedrooms are of good sizes. The central landing and minstrels gallery add to the property's appeal. Some buyers may see potential to modernise or wish to update parts of the property.
The grounds
In addition to the principal house, there are a number of traditional outbuildings. The stables form part of the courtyard between the main house, barn conversation and gated entrance. There are further stone out buildings, providing general stores.
To the rear of the house is a walled garden and adjacent a tennis court and swimming pool. Grass paddocks and fields
dissected with natural dry stonewalls are included in the sale, about 28 acres in all. The majority of the land is to the west, running to the neighbouring Badminton Estate and the Cherry Orchard lane. (Available as a whole or in two lots).

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
