Coachmans

Coachmans is a substantial period house, believed to have been
built in 1874. It enjoys a lovely private setting, set back from
Clenches Farm Road. It is constructed of Kentish ragstone under
a tile roof and is arranged over two floors. It offers spacious family
living areas suitable for both formal and informal use and is well-
positioned to enjoy its surrounding gardens and grounds.

A two storey extension was added in 1999 and further
enhancements in 2005. It has recently been redecorated
throughout.

The arrangement of the accommodation can be seen on the floor
plans and can be briefly described as follows:

Ground Floor

The house is entered via an entrance hall flanked by a cloakroom
and utility room. The house is full of character and includes some
lovely features including Italian marble flooring quarried in Tuscany,
together with Victorian cast iron radiators. The hall leads through
to the wonderful bespoke kitchen/breakfast room constructed
by Chambers furniture of solid oak with pippy oak veneers,
including a solid oak Welsh dresser and Kirkstone slate worktops.
It is extremely well equipped with Gaggenau oven, microwave,
induction hob, gas hob, lava stone grill and large Miele extractor
hood, dishwasher, fridge and fridge/freezer. An additional feature
is the individually designed solid oak open staircase with wrought
iron bannister. This room connects well with the drawing room as
double doors open to this beautifully proportioned reception room
with a large stone built fireplace with Baxi grate and a wonderful
western aspect lit by a large solid green oak window. An arched
oak door opens to a study (where a second staircase leads to
the first floor), which in turn leads to a music room fitted with
an antique pine Welsh dresser, further cupboard and fireplace.
Beyond this lies a sitting room with fireplace, dual aspect and bay
window. A door leads through to a kitchenette and bathroom,
enabling this area to be used as a separate annexe.

First Floor

The first floor, in a similar fashion to the ground floor, is spacious
and light and benefiting from high ceilings. There are 5 bedrooms
and 3 bathrooms in total, including a well-proportioned master
bedroom with an eastern aspect looking over the gardens. Two
further bedrooms have en-suite wet rooms with walk in Aqualisa
showers, Italian marble mosaic tiles and handmade basins. There
are two further bedrooms and a large family bathroom with dormer
window. The landing is lit by large skylights and there is a further
