6 bedroom detached house for sale

An exceptional and unique six bedroom detached family home offering versatile accommodation comprising five reception rooms and three bathrooms.


The Old Coach House offers a wealth of space with character features throughout and benefits from double glazed windows, gas central heating and ample off road parking.

This large, detached family home has the potential to be divided as a four bedroom property with a two bedroom self-contained annexe. Situated within the heart of Yeovil, this property is only a short walk away from the popular Ninesprings Park as well as the town centre.

The property is entered at the rear via a porch with double doors leading directly into the open kitchen/breakfast room where features include a part exposed red brick fireplace, exposed ceiling beams and a cast iron multi-fuel cooker/fire. This generously proportioned room has a range of fitted wall and base units with granite work surface and space for a range cooker with hood over, as well as for a table and chairs. At one end of this room steps lead up to the useful utility room (with plumbing and space for white goods) and the cloakroom beyond. At the opposite end, steps lead to the large sitting room. This light and spacious room has a range of windows together with French doors overlooking the garden and has a delightful feature fireplace with multi fuel burner inset. It also has a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams.

Also off the kitchen/dining room is the area with the potential to become a self-contained annexe. This comprises an office (which could also be used as a playroom), a workshop with a door to the garden, two bedrooms, a shower room and a bar. The bar could be converted to a kitchen for the annexe (subject to any necessary permissions).

On the next level is the substantial sitting/dining room with its open fireplace and exposed ceiling beams. With windows to the front and side this is an ideal place from which to admire the views across the town. Doors on one side of this room lead to the en suite master bedroom and to bedroom four. On the other side a door leads to the family bathroom, two further bedrooms and the conservatory.
