Description
Originally built in 1985, The Coach House is an immaculately-presented, five-bedroom home offering spacious and light-filled accommodation, standing in its own well-established grounds of approximately 1.6-acres in a much sought-after location on the edge of Rutland Water with a paddock, tennis court and glorious views.
Accommodation Ground Floor - The Coach House sits in a wonderful spot on the edge of the water with immaculately-presented and generously proportioned accommodation throughout. A spacious entrance hall gives way through double doors into an inner hallway providing access to the ground floor accommodation. The ground floor in brief consists of a breakfast kitchen, utility, three large reception rooms, a study, and a downstairs cloakroom. The breakfast kitchen sits to the middle of the property with a comprehensive range of fitted timber units with a variety of integrated appliances and ample space for a central table. Adjacent to the kitchen is a useful utility with further storage, space for white goods and a door out to the side of the property.
The two main reception rooms sit, one to the front and one to the rear and both are incredibly spacious, dual-aspect rooms. The games room sits to the front with a bay window and the main living room to the rear. The main living room has a feature fireplace and glazed, sliding doors opening out to the patio and garden. Double doors open from the living room into the dining room, another large and light-filled room with double doors out to the garden. A spiral staircase rises to a further first-floor, vaulted reception room with glazing to three sides and a Juliet balcony offering the most beautiful views over the garden and Rutland Water. The ground floor is completed by a study and downstairs cloakroom accessed from the entrance hall.
Accommodation First Floor - The main stairs rise from the inner hallway to a light and airy, galleried landing providing access to the bedroom and bathroom accommodation. The impressive master suite has its own entrance hall with an ensuite bathroom and dressing room to either side. This then leads through an archway into the vaulted bedroom area complete with a feature fireplace and a Juliet balcony. The master bedroom suite also has a door into the first-floor reception room/sun room.
There are a further four double bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes or space for free-standing furniture. These bedrooms are served by a family bathroom and a Jack and Jill shower room.
Outside - To the front of the property, wrought-iron gates open onto a tree-lined driveway leading to a large, gravelled area providing ample off-road parking and access to the detached double garage with workshop above. There is a fenced paddock of approximately half an acre, a full-sized tennis court and two storage sheds.
A hand gate opens into the rear garden where a large patio sits to the west side providing ample space for seating and outdoor entertaining. The well-established garden beyond is predominantly laid to lawn with an array of mature borders and specimen trees creating year-round interest and a fantastic degree of privacy.
This property is an extremely rare visitor to the open market and must be viewed to be appreciated.
