A substantial detached Victorian family house set on just over 1.5 acres in sought-after Appleby Magna. The Old Coach House extends to roughly 3,500 sqft with five bedrooms, extensive reception space and a separate one-bedroom annexe — ideal for multigenerational use or short-term let. The plot includes expansive lawns and a private tennis court, with off-street parking to the gravelled forecourt.
Internally the layout favours family living: four large ground-floor reception rooms, a spacious dining/kitchen and a large principal bedroom with en suite shower room. The property retains period character — high ceilings, exposed brick and chimney features — while double glazing was installed before 2002. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators.
Practical considerations: the house is solid brick (as built) and is assumed to have no cavity insulation, and the glazing and some services will be dated. Broadband speeds are slow in the area and council tax is above average. Outline planning consent (ref 20/01118/OUT) exists for one additional dwelling within the grounds, offering development potential subject to full consent.
This home suits a family seeking space, privacy and scope to update rather than a turnkey move. Its large plot, annexe and development potential will appeal to buyers looking to extend, adapt or create ancillary accommodation in a very affluent, rural village setting. Flood risk is low and local schools — including a highly regarded independent option — are within easy reach.
