Situation - The Village of Bonvilston is situated midway between the City of Cardiff and the Historic Market Town of Cowbridge and lies to either side of the A48 road which serves The Vale of Glamorgan. Bonvilston has long been regarded as one of the Vale of Glamorgan's most sought after residential areas, offering, as it does, a combination of individual homes amidst attractive, gently rolling countryside, yet with convenient access to Cardiff and transport networks. The Village itself includes a public house and local shop. With nearby primary schools feeding to the well respected Cowbridge Comprehensive. At the nearby Culverhouse Cross there is an out-of-town shopping centre which includes Marks and Spencer, Tesco and other national retail outlets.
About The Property - Nestled in the heart of the Vale of Glamorgan countryside, Redlands House is a beautifully presented character residence offering a rare blend of traditional farmhouse charm and modern luxury. Located in the sought-after village of Bonvilston—perfectly positioned between the vibrant City of Cardiff and the historic market town of Cowbridge—this elegant home provides the very best of country living with urban convenience.
The property has been thoughtfully updated and immaculately maintained, showcasing original features such as exposed brickwork, oak beams, and stone fireplaces, all enhanced by contemporary styling and high-spec finishes. Upon entry, you are welcomed into a spacious and sociable open-plan kitchen and living area, ideal for modern family life. The kitchen is fully equipped with a range of integrated appliances including a range cooker, American-style fridge freezer, and dishwasher, while a large central island offers generous storage and seating.
French doors open out from the kitchen onto a sheltered outdoor entertaining area, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen flows into a cosy family sitting room, where a double-sided fireplace links to the adjoining dining room, creating an inviting atmosphere throughout the ground floor. From the dining area, further French doors lead directly to the rear garden, enhancing the sense of space and light.
A separate formal living room, again with a feature log burner, offers a refined setting for evening relaxation or entertaining guests. Additional ground floor spaces include a large walk-in pantry—perfect for storing homegrown produce and preserves—and a well-appointed utility room offering practicality without compromise.
Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress, with four generously sized double bedrooms. The principal suite includes a large en suite bathroom with freestanding bath and separate shower. Three further bedrooms all benefit from en suite facilities or access to the luxurious family bathroom. A second dressing room serves bedroom two, creating a flexible layout suited to growing families or multi-generational living.
Gardens And Grounds - Redlands House stands within approximately two acres of beautifully maintained grounds, offering a lifestyle of privacy, space, and natural beauty. A sweeping gravelled driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to the expansive paddocks and orchard that lie beyond the formal gardens.
The rear garden features a large lawn bordered by mature planting, a sheltered patio area, and a striking timber-framed gazebo—an idyllic space for alfresco dining or summer gatherings. Adjacent to the garden is a small stable block and further outdoor storage, catering for equestrian or hobby farming needs.
Beyond the main garden lies the orchard, a real highlight of the property, boasting a rich array of mature fruit trees including apples and a magnificent Denbigh plum. Four distinct paddocks provide space for grazing, small-scale livestock, or future landscaping projects, making this a truly versatile outdoor setting. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat, a working smallholding, or space for children to roam, Redlands House delivers exceptional outdoor living.
