Bond was the fourth son of Denis Bond, a prominent politician during the Interregnum, succeeding to the family estates at Lutton after all his elder brothers died without male heirs, and also in 1686 buying the neighbouring estate of Grange which subsequently became the family seat. He was educated at Oxford University, graduating B.C.L. in 1654, and incorporated LL.B. at Cambridge University in 1659.^[1] Making his career in the law, he was a barrister and King's Serjeant. He entered Parliament in 1679 as member for Corfe Castle, and subsequently also represented Dorchester.

He married Mary Browne (d. 1728), widow of Thomas Browne of Frampton and daughter of Lewis Williams of Shitterton, and they had two sons:

Denis Bond of Creech Grange (1676–1747), MP for Dorchester, Corfe Castle and Poole, his heir
John Bond of Tyneham (1678–1744), MP for Corfe Castle
