Property Details

The Old Coach House offers well planned single storey living space created by extending an original coach house building. The clever design has created several gables and differing roof lines adding character and individuality. Whilst rurally situated a pair of farm cottages sit to one side along with the historic parish church and churchyard, Church Farmhouse with Church Farm beyond. Being on one level the interior offers flexibility of use. Currently one of the three bedrooms serves as a study and one of the two reception rooms a formal dining room. New owners have the choice to vary accordingly. The master bedroom enjoys a sizeable en suite wet room with a roomy bathroom sits adjacent to the additional two bedrooms all of which are found off a further hallway.

Outside, the plot extends to 0.45 Acres (0.19 Hectares) (Source: Promap) and can be accessed from the road via a 5 bar gated asphalt drive leading to the character timber frame garage and turning towards the front door with the idea of easier access for say, wheelchair use.
