Virtual TourThe main building was built in 1611 by the Hanford family. The Gallery Apartment retains many original features from the time. Adjustments and additions to the building were made in the 18th and 19th century, before the family sold Woollas in the 20th century. Developers then divided it into apartments that exist today. The long corridor in the Gallery Apartment was originally a balcony to the banqueting hall below. The Banqueting Hall is now a separate apartment on the ground floor. Bredon Hill is part of the Cotswolds and is also home to ancient monuments including an iron age fort and standing stones.
The apartment is accessed through the imposing communal entrance hall with oak panelling and quarry tiled floor and is located on the first floor.

The Gallery Apartment is being sold with an independent studio flat (valued at £65,000). This is an ideal rental property with potential income of £600 pcm. The studio will require some improvement. It is anticipated a purchaser will buy both properties although they are on separate titles so a sale by separate negotiation may be considered.
Recent updates with the Gallery Apartment include bathroom (4 years ago), kitchen (1 year ago) and cast iron electric radiators (2 years ago). Access is via a public road on farmland surrounding the property. Upkeep of this road takes place every 10 years and is paid for by Woollas Hall residents.
