This unique Grade II listed high-quality three-bedroom extended coach house effortlessly combines modern living with its traditional past, set in a tranquil hamlet with the sound of birds, bees and crickets as background music.
Approached over a private gravel road bisecting a wild grass meadow, entry to a shared gravel courtyard for several vehicles is through a five-bar gate. Excellent views and country walks are on offer leading to nearby pubs and amenities.
There is the potential to extend the property and add a further two bedrooms, subject to the necessary permissions being obtained.
INTERIOR
The tiled entrance hall offers casement windows to the front and access to the ground floor accommodation, as well as a generous storage cupboard and access to the loft via a hatch.
The dual-aspect open plan kitchen and living area is noticeable for the large brick-built inglenook fireplace with inset oak mantelpiece and slate hearth, solid wood floor, exposed roof beams and pillars, wrought iron door furniture (repeated throughout the house) and French doors to the garden.
There is plenty of space for two sofas, a dining table for six people, and other furniture.
The integrated kitchen area has solid wood worktops and matching cupboards and base units to three walls, an integrated ceramic hob (with extract fan), double electric oven and integrated microwave oven; integrated fridge/freezer and a Belfast sink.
Modern features include two radiators, built-in sound speaker system, a mixture of recessed and wall-mounted lights and an electrical floor socket.
A useful utility room with a sink, two worktops and space for an under-counter washing machine and tumble dryer lies off the kitchen area, together with additional storage space and the staircase.
The carpeted triple-aspect second bedroom with exposed beams has more than enough space for a super-King size bed and other furniture, with access through the French doors directly to the garden. Full-height and casement windows look to the front. Two radiators and two pendant light fittings complete the fixtures.
The en-suite comprises a corner shower cubicle with drench showerhead; wooden counter-top vanity unit and porcelain basin with separate wall taps; radiator with towel rail; a low-level flush toilet and an electric razor socket. There are part-tiled walls and on the windowsill, and a tiled floor.
Bedroom 3 is also spacious enough to accommodate a King-size bed and other furniture and allows direct access to the garden through French doors as well as allowing light in from a further casement window to the rear. A cupboard with shelving is built into one corner and there is further access to the loft via a hatch.
The family bathroom completes the ground-floor accommodation. It consists of a free-standing bath with central taps and hand-held shower attachment and duplicates the other fixtures of the en-suite bathroom.
A turning staircase with open wood balustrade, casement windows to either side and a landing showing exposed oak roof trusses leads to the master bedroom.
With room for a super King-size bed and other furniture, this double-aspect room’s character includes carpet, casement windows with wooden shutters to the rear with unspoilt views and to the side, exposed beams, and downlighters.
A carpeted walk-in dressing room offers open shelving and drawers to one wall and casement windows to the front and side, with further access to the loft.
The en-suite bathroom continues the theme of the other bathrooms and consists of a walk-in shower cubicle; free-standing copper bath; wash basin; radiator with towel rail, casement window to the rear and toilet.
EXTERIOR
A flagstone patio runs across the width of the house, with most of the garden (approximately 10 metres wide by 30 metres long) laid to lawn and surrounded by full-height close-boarded wooden fencing. External water taps, carriage lights and electric sockets and a wooden shiplap shed are installed. The oil tank for the heating is housed in a separate fenced compound and there is external access to the boiler room. There is access via a gate to the front of the house. Back to listing
