A rare opportunity to acquire a former coach house with huge potential. Offered for sale with NO ONWARD CHAIN and ready immediately for occupation.
This charming detached home sits within an unusually large plot for the local area. It is set back from the road with a front garden depth of approx. 58 ft / 17.7m which includes parking for two large cars to a gravelled driveway, as well a sizeable back garden measuring nearly 100 ft / 30m.
According to records found at the local authority by the previous owners, we understand that a Georgian Manor House (now demolished) once stood on the site of the neighbouring apartment building, Tabbard House. It is understood that the subject property was the coach house serving the manor house with stable-buildings, evidenced by an original boundary wall extending along the left-flank of the rear garden.
Upon approaching the property you are greeted by a pitched roof storm-porch with tessellated tiled floor and external light. The property is well maintained both internally and externally and boasts a traditional layout with charming features on display such as decorative corbels to the entrance hall, tall ceilings (some with cornicing & picture rails), fireplaces to principle rooms and balustraded bannisters to first floor landing.
The ground floor laid with engineered wood flooring comprises entrance hall with under-stairs cupboard, a good size front reception room (currently set up as dining room) with deep bay window and an attractive fireplace with matching cabinets and alcove shelving. There is also a central kitchen / breakfast room with built-in seat with storage, whilst to rear, a charming double aspect sitting room, again with fireplace, which enjoys twin-doors out to the garden.
Upstairs, the accommodation consists of master bedroom (4.88 x 4.62m / 16' x 15'2") with full-width wardrobes and deep bay window (replicating the dining room below), two further double bedrooms, bathroom, separate WC, and two independent laundry cupboards.
Externally the front is well planned with driveway parking, in addition to lawned front garden divided by a retainer wall and hedge. This, in turn, provides a natural screen to ensure vehicles are obscured when looking out from the front reception room. The rear garden is planted with established trees and plants, flag-stone patio, timber storage shed, and wide side access with locked side gate.
