Originally constructed as the coach house to Brockhill House in 1866, this remarkable home blends historic charm with beautifully adapted modern living. Tucked away within an attractive setting and approached via a private tree-lined driveway, the property enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy while benefiting from far-reaching countryside views to the rear.

Converted in 2002 to provide flexible family accommodation, the Coach House now offers exceptionally generous rooms throughout, with large windows that flood the property with natural light and frame the surrounding views.

Stepping inside, the impressive entrance hallway immediately sets the tone for the scale of the home. Unexpectedly spacious, it provides access to the rear hall and main living accommodation, a ground floor flexible room, and the staircase leading to the first floor. Solid oak floors are throughout the ground floor.

The main living room is a beautifully proportioned space, enjoying a dual-aspect outlook with windows to the front and double doors opening onto the rear garden. A charming wood-burning stove creates a cosy focal point, making this an ideal space for relaxing evenings.

The kitchen-dining room forms the true heart of the home. Designed with a wonderful country-style feel, it provides ample space for cooking, dining and everyday family life, with an additional sitting area that makes this a sociable and welcoming space. Double doors open directly onto the garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living during the warmer months.

Beyond the kitchen, a rear entrance hallway features further windows overlooking the garden and leads through to a practical utility room, which also benefits from external access via double doors to the garden — perfect for muddy boots, children returning from the garden, or pets after countryside walks.

The ground floor accommodation is completed by a downstairs WC and a large study/playroom which offers excellent flexibility and views to the house front.

Upstairs, the sense of space continues with four double bedrooms, each enjoying large windows and an abundance of natural light. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while bedroom two also enjoys the luxury of a private en-suite. The remaining two bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom, making the layout perfectly suited to modern family living.

Externally, the property truly comes into its own. The phenomenal rear garden provides an impressive amount of space for children to play, entertaining guests, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The garden backs onto open farmland, offering beautiful countryside views that enhance the sense of tranquillity.

To the front, the property provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles, along with a garage, adding practicality to this already exceptional home.
