Coachmans Cottage is a spacious former coach house set in a peaceful hamlet near Overton, offering substantial family accommodation across generous rooms and charming period detail. The vaulted drawing room with mezzanine library and large fireplace creates a dramatic family living space, while a separate study/sitting room provides quieter zones for homework or remote working. The kitchen with built-in breakfast table opens via double doors to a private courtyard garden with pond and well — an attractive spot for al fresco meals and children's play.
Practical living is well catered for: three bathrooms (including a principal en suite with dressing room), utility room, downstairs WC/shower and plentiful reception rooms give flexibility for growing families, guests or a home office. Outside, a shared gravel driveway leads to a double garage plus additional parking — useful for multiple cars or visitors. The property sits in a prosperous rural setting with good local amenities and an Overton station link to London (about 55 minutes).
Buyers should note material running costs and improvement needs. The house dates to the mid 20th century with cavity walls noted as having no insulation (assumed) and double glazing of unknown age — insulating and energy upgrades are likely to be needed. Council Tax is high (Band G), and the driveway is shared, which may affect privacy and access. Overall, this is a characterful, very large family home with strong scope for modernization to improve comfort and efficiency.
