GROUND FLOOR

Upon entering through the large, panelled entrance door, the spacious hall is immediately apparent, bathed in natural light. The staircase ascends directly ahead, leading to the first floor. To the right, the sitting room offers a generous space with tall ceilings—a characteristic feature throughout the ground floor. Large windows frame views over the pond and courtyard, enhancing the room's brightness. A stone fireplace with a multi-fuel stove adds a touch of warmth and character. Further along the entrance hall, you will find the study. This is a substantial area with ample storage space. A door leads to a smaller conservatory/ garden room, which, in turn, offers access to the pond or the walled garden through double doors. Continuing through the entrance hall, the large dining room serves as an ideal space for both entertaining guests and family gatherings. Two sets of double doors open into a Victorian-style conservatory, which also features two sets of double doors leading into the walled garden, allowing for seamless indoor-outdoor living. The generous kitchen exudes a farmhouse charm, equipped with an oil-fired Aga, dishwasher, electric oven, and induction hob. Hand-painted units with granite work surfaces complement the space. Double doors open into the conservatory, while a large door provides access to the courtyard. Adjacent to the kitchen, a hallway leads to a utility room with storage, work surfaces, a sink, and a door to the walled garden. Two well-sized bedrooms are located here, along with a bathroom.
__________

FIRST FLOOR

At the top of the stairs, a shower room is located directly ahead, with a double bedroom featuring built-in wardrobes to the right. The main bedroom, situated at the end of the landing, offers views over the walled garden and courtyard. This private space includes an en-suite bathroom and a dressing room, providing a luxurious and tranquil space.
__________

OUTSIDE

The Coach House is set within just under four acres of grounds, offering a blend of privacy and potential. Accessed via a shared private driveway, the property is complemented by a mix of grassland and trees to the right, all owned by The Coach House. To the left, a small grass area houses an outbuilding/store room, providing additional storage. Approaching The Coach House, a curved brick wall leads to a spacious courtyard, offering ample parking for multiple vehicles.

To the rear, a substantial 10-foot-high brick-walled garden creates a secluded outdoor haven. This area features a well-maintained lawn, potting sheds along with the footprint of the original greenhouse, established shrubs, and a modest orchard, making it an ideal setting for alfresco dining and family gatherings. The tranquil environment is perfect for relaxation and outdoor enjoyment.

Adjacent to the property lies a pond area. Overlooking this space is a 455 sq. ft. (stms) outbuilding, offering versatile potential. This structure could be adapted to serve as additional living accommodation, an annex, or a self-contained home office, subject to necessary planning permissions. The opportunities presented by this space are abundant for the next owners.
__________

SITUATION

The Coach House is situated in the picturesque village of Scole, nestled on the Norfolk–Suffolk border. This charming village boasts a rich historical heritage, with roots tracing back to the Roman era, and offers a peaceful rural lifestyle. Despite its tranquil setting, Scole maintains a strong sense of community and provides essential local amenities, including a shop, public house, restaurant, school, and church, ensuring convenience for its residents.

For a broader range of facilities, the nearby market town of Diss, located approximately 2 miles west, offers excellent transport links and amenities. Diss is served by a mainline railway station with direct services to London Liverpool Street in about 90 minutes, as well as to Norwich, making it an ideal location for commuters. The town features a variety of local and national shops, sports and social facilities—including an 18-hole golf course—and schooling for all ages.

The Heritage Coast, encompassing destinations such as Southwold and Aldeburgh, is within a 40-minute drive, offering access to beautiful beaches and coastal attractions. Additionally, the property is conveniently located midway between Norwich and Ipswich, both approximately 25 miles away via the A140, providing easy access to these vibrant cities.
The Cathedral City of Norwich, situated about 21 miles to the north, is renowned for its vibrant city life, thriving business community, and a wide variety of cultural and leisure pursuits. It is regarded as the region's centre for shopping, with numerous cafes, restaurants, and a permanent open market in the heart of the city.

About Jackson-Stops, Norwich

2 Redwell Street, Norwich, NR2 4SN

Welcome To Jackson-Stops Norwich Office

We pride ourselves on being an independent national estate agency, with our Norwich office covering most of the county of Norfolk.

Enviable Reputation

Jackson-Stops has more than a century of experience in the prime property market with over 45 privately owned offices nationwide and our Norwich office sells a diverse portfolio of quality properties from cottages to country homes, listed buildings, barn conversions and new homes.

Tailored Marketing

Our tailored approach to residential property puts our clients at the centre of all we do. From beginning to end, our knowledge, advice and exceptional service will steer your purchase or sale to a successful completion.

National Coverage, Local Presence

Like all Jackson-Stops offices, our Norwich branch is part of a structure which gives our clients the benefits of a top-flight national brand and the total attention of their local office - with superb results. These results prompt a great deal of feedback from buyers and sellers alike. Overwhelmingly, that feedback is very, very positive.

Personal Director Led Service

One factor behind this is that we share our national brand ownership and responsibilities across the regions. This means that, free of the need to please distant shareholders and CEOs (there are none), our directors like David Lambert and their teams can focus on you, their client, and your priorities - not corporate ones. When you instruct us, you will be dealing with the business owner direct.

Exceptional Local Knowledge

Sharing national responsibilities also ensures that our local teams have a broader understanding of the overall market than rivals who leave 'big picture' matters to their head office. It's part of an overall approach which generates a deep, long-term commitment from owner/directors and staff to the communities of which they are a part. And a frequent consequence of that is that when buyers moving into an area call a local friend for advice, the national agent they recommend is Jackson-Stops.

High Quality Marketing Material

We produce high quality, tailored marketing material and offer an all-inclusive fee for clients selling their homes. All of our properties are promoted on the group website www.jackson-stops.co.uk and on the market leading property search website: Rightmove

We would be delighted to meet with you to discuss how we can help in regard to any aspect of your property sale or search.
