Lewes Road, Scaynes Hill, RH17

The Courtyard and its Opportunities:
The Coach House forms part of the Pellingbridge Farm estate, situated just off the Lewes Road about half a mile south of Scaynes Hill. The Coach House was originally built as a Coach House in the 1880’s and was extended in 2019 with a 8m x 5 m Oak framed barn building with vaulted ceiling and spectacular oak trusses.
The original Coach House building was significantly modernised in 2019 including the electrical and plumbing specification, re-roofing and the security systems with CCTV and Intruder alarm systems.
The Coach House is within the Pellingbridge Courtyard and comprises three former farm buildings that have been converted into stylish and modern dwellings, all of which are for sale – The Coach House, Stables Cottage and Rose Cottage.
The Coach House, in combination with one or two of the other courtyard properties presents a good opportunity for multigenerational family living or private rentals.
When sold singly these properties provide opportunities for families and professional couples, and for a second countryside home.

Description
The property offers well presented, spacious accommodation over two floors. The house has three good-size reception rooms, the highlight being the open plan kitchen and living space which has a vaulted oak frame and truss double-height ceiling with exposed oak beams and both bifold doors and French windows which provide access to the garden as well as affording excellent natural light. The property further benefits from underfloor heating, a security system with CCTV and alarm and fitted plantation shutters.
The versatile layout comprises two reception rooms in the original Coach House building, a utility area, galley-style kitchen open plan to the main living space, a cloakroom with WC and a ground floor principal bedroom with en-suite bath and shower room and built-in wardrobes. Upstairs there are two good-size double bedrooms with built in wardrobes and shutters and a family shower room.

Outside

The Coach House is approached via a gravel driveway where there is plenty of parking including two dedicated spaces and further visitor parking. A flight of steps leads up to the front door and a pretty elevated terrace with a glass balustrade. The garden is situated to the side and rear, comprising a paved area for garden furniture, a low- maintenance astroturf lawn and mature borders stocked with a variety of vibrant plants.
There is an additional paved courtyard area off the main bedroom which creates a private outside space that perfectly captures the morning sun.
