Norton Village, Norton, Runcorn

A unique detached character family home, built in 1724 as the coach house of Norton Lodge, the seat of the historic and noteable Brookes family of Norton Priory.

The sale of Coach House represents a rare and exciting chance to acquire an iconic property of significant local historic interest but also a fascinating characterful family home in a superb setting.

Set in the heart of pretty tree lined Norton Village, the property is secluded and has a discreet external view which conceals a genuinely spacious home with numerous features of quality and merit.

Coach House was converted to a family home in 1974 and has been enjoyed by our clients for a little over 33 years. The interior is entered via hallway with cloakroom/WC. There are two spacious living rooms - one to the front and the other at the rear with doors connecting to the private rear garden. The kitchen/breakfast room is central to the house and there is also a useful store/utility room. The main bedroom has an en-suite shower room and doors connecting to a private roof terrace with tree top views over the surrounding area. There are two further double bedrooms and a bathroom.

The house is set back from the road with a cobbled forecourt, a heritage street lamp and ample car parking. To the rear, there is a lovely York stone paved courtyard garden with lawn extending beyond.
