Field House Close, Driffield

An 18th-Century Coach House carefully and thoughtfully refurbished by the owners to create a dream home providing distinctive and comfortable family accommodation.

The location combines the convenience of town centre living with the feel of the country created by established trees and a private driveway.

The stunning accommodation is to be envied and includes an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area with double feature fireplace. Four generously sized bedrooms, including a master bedroom with en-suite and a family bathroom.

The exceptional specification successfully combines original features including Yorkstone tiling, beams, arched windows all complemented by contemporary touches such as dimmable lighting, flat plate chrome sockets and switches, and, importantly, high levels of insulation for energy efficiency.
A double garage with twin doors and first floor storage with scope for conversion is complemented by ample parking all set within sheltered, mainly lawned gardens.

The town's many amenities are within easy walking distance. These includes schools, a well-regarded shopping and commercial centre, sporting and health facilities. A weekly stalled market adds to the character of the town centre.
