Description
The Coach House is an impressive family home with generous proportions throughout and has been designed to offer light and airy accommodation, orientated to take advantage of views over the open countryside and its stunning gardens.
A storm porch covers the entrance door which opens into a spacious hallway, finished with engineered oak floors which also feature in the reception rooms. An oak staircase rises to a galleried landing and is lit by electrically-operated roof vents. Off the hallway is a spacious cloakroom with enough area to be converted to a shower room should the facility be required.
At the rear of the house the living room has bi-fold doors providing a lovely outlook over the property's gardens. The room features a textured stone fireplace including wood-burner. Adjacent is a dual aspect separate dining room, again with bi-fold doors and at the front of the house is a family room with a cassette-style hole-in-wall fireplace with mantle over. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of granite work surfaces with contrasting Shaker-style units beneath and includes an extensive range of Neff appliances, a bank of ovens, a microwave, a warming drawer, a dishwasher and a touch-control induction hob. The room also features pull-out larders and a larder-style fridge with a water cooler and ice maker. Bi-fold doors open from the kitchen on to a raised deck covered with a glazed verandah, ideal for al fresco dining and providing lovely views over the garden. Adjoining the kitchen is a small study and utility room which houses the oil-fired boiler with space for a washing machine and a dryer.
An oak staircase rises to a light and airy landing with vaulted ceiling and electric-operated roof vents. There are five bedrooms including a generous principal bedroom with en suite bathroom and dressing room featuring a vaulted ceiling and dual-height windows framing lovely views of the garden. Bedrooms two and three share a Jack and Jill en suite and bedroom two also features a vaulted ceiling with double-height windows overlooking the countryside to the front. Bedroom 4 also has an en suite and there is a family bathroom with shower offering facilities for bedroom 5.
Outside
The house is set well back from the lane approached through five-bar double gates into a deep gravel drive providing plenty of parking and including a central water feature. There is access to a large double garage with high doors, ideal for bigger vehicles. The landscaped rear gardens extend to approx 54 m (177 ft) commencing with a deck and glazed verandah terrace which adjoins extensive shaped lawns with deep, heavily-stocked beds providing all-year colour and interest. The lawns have a scattering of specimen trees and towards the rear of the property there is a segregated vegetable garden.
In all about 0.52 acres.
