Description The Coach House is a striking and beautifully presented coach house conversion, recently completed by the current owners, who have successfully combined modern finishes with the original character and historic origins of the property to create a unique and spacious family home. The origins of the Coach House date back to the 19 th Century, when the property was the original coach house for Carlton Hall, a former local country estate. Quietly situated in an idyllic rural hamlet, The Coach House sits in mature parkland grounds and the principle rooms all enjoy far reaching open views across rolling countryside. To the rear of the property there is a large enclosed lawned walled garden with attractive water feature and the driveway provides access to the detached double garage block, which offers further potential. Although nestled in this quiet hamlet, The Coach House is ideally located to access the A1 (M) or across to the Durham/ Newcastle and Teesside conurbations, bringing many commercial centres in both the north and south within commutable distance. Accommodation Ground Floor The main glazed double doors lead into a reception hall, which gives an indication of the character and attention to detail throughout the rest of the property. The reception hall provides access to the study, which is unique in that it has been created from the original cast iron stable. The large living dining kitchen, in the east wing, provides an excellent hub for family life within the property and is well equipped with a bespoke fitted kitchen incorporating a large central island and large recess housing a four oven oil-fired AGA. A number of wooden sash windows ensure this room is constantly full of natural light. A pantry, generous utility and downstairs WC complete the ground-floor accommodation in this wing, all of which has under-floor heating.

4 The stunning galleried dining hall, again with under-floor heating, creates a unique focal point and provides an ideal environment for entertaining and again is bathed in natural light from the large arched windows to the front, which provide views across the grounds and open countryside beyond. The dining hall provides access to a secondary entrance hall and to the west wing comprising a billiard room a further two reception rooms and shower room offering the potential to create an annexe if required. First Floor The galleried first floor landing provides access to the principal bedroom accommodation. The master bedroom wing comprises a generous double bedroom with exposed trusses and views across open countryside, a good-sized dressing room with window and fitted clothes rails and shelving and a large bathroom with air-bath, bespoke wooden vanity unit, steam shower cabin, under-floor heating and linen cupboard.
