6 bedroom detached house for sale

The Coach House
Originally dating back to the early 1900s, the house has been beautifully extended and renovated, with the extensive works including a new drainage system, rewiring, new study with CAT 5 cabling, new principal suite with under-floor heating, new bathroom suites, new island, worktop and Lacanche range cooker in the kitchen, and new wooden flooring in the drawing room, study and conservatory. The result of the schedule of works is an interior that is a blend of elegance and style and is a testament to the current owners’ obvious design flair and eye for detail. Of particular note is the comprehensively fitted kitchen/breakfast room that connects with both the dining room and conservatory, thereby providing excellent space for both family living and entertaining. Also on the ground floor is a good sized gym/sun room with a wall of full-height windows and double doors opening out to the gardens, an adjoining study, a generously proportioned utility room, and a cloakroom.
