2 bed detached house for sale

The Coach House, Old Surrenden Manor Road, Bethersden TN26

An enchanting, unlisted detached Coach House, sympathetically converted in the 1980s and more recently extended and thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners.

Set within approximately 0.15 of an acre, The Coach House is rich in period features, including exposed oak beams, brickwork, and traditional latch-key doors-all beautifully balanced with modern touches such as engineered oak flooring, a sleek integrated kitchen and luxurious bathrooms.

The recent extension, currently used as a snug/home office, offers excellent potential to serve as a self-contained guest annexe, complete with its own private entrance.

The façade is an elegant blend of red brickwork, adorned with mature wisteria and oak-framed leaded windows, creating an inviting and timeless appeal. The front door opens into the heart of the home, where you're immediately met with a sense of character and exceptional craftsmanship.

The sitting room, featuring French doors to the garden, centres around an exposed brick inglenook fireplace, perfectly suited to house a wood-burning stove. The kitchen is partially open to the sitting room, with vertical oak beams providing a natural divide.

Engineered oak flooring flows throughout, complementing the rich, dark cabinetry which integrates a range of modern appliances. Silestone worktops and brushed steel cup handles add a refined, contemporary touch.

A well-appointed utility room offers additional practicality, while the dining room now open to the kitchen benefits from an abundance of natural light thanks to multiple windows, creating a bright and sociable space.

The Coach House features two separate staircases, creating a natural division between the west and east wings of the property.

To the west wing, a spacious dual-aspect double bedroom is adorned with exposed beams and vaulted ceilings, creating a sense of grandeur and light. This impressive suite is complemented by a recently installed luxury bathroom and a generous walk-in dressing room.

In the east wing, an open staircase leads to a comfortable guest bedroom with its own en suite bathroom, offering privacy and convenience for visitors.

The annexe, forming part of the recent extension, is accessed via the utility room and benefits from vaulted ceilings and engineered oak flooring. This flexible space offers excellent potential for independent accommodation, a home office, or creative studio.

Outside:

The Coach House is set within approximately 0.15 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds. To the front, a generous gravelled driveway provides ample parking for several vehicles.

At the rear, a sweeping brick-laid patio offers an ideal space for alfresco dining and entertaining. The garden is mainly laid to lawn, thoughtfully interspersed with mature shrubs and vibrant, colourful borders.

In the far corner of the garden, a charming open barn-style structure provides a shaded retreat, perfect for relaxed outdoor dining or quiet moments of escape.
