The Coach House , Emery Down, Lyndhurst, SO43

Offered to the market having been meticulously renovated by the current owner is this bright and airy top-floor apartment, forming part of the former Coach House at Northerwood House, where just four properties are situated within the building. Set within approximately six acres of Northerwood House grounds, the property benefits from a private garage and a delightful section of garden shared between only two properties. With its sympathetic renovation and exposed timber beams, this home beautifully blends the character and charm of the original Coach House with contemporary living.

The Coach House is situated in highly the sought-after area of Swan Green on the edge of the village of Lyndhurst and is located only a short walk from the pubs, tearooms, shops and amenities of Lyndhurst village, and the open Forest with its many walks and outdoor pursuits.

The village of Brockenhurst (about 4 miles south) has a mainline rail connection to London Waterloo (journey time approximately 90 minutes). The M27 (Junction 1) is some 3 miles north of the property, connecting through to the M3 at Chilworth for access to London

The property is accessed via the main entrance to the building, with stairs leading to the first floor where the apartment's private front door can be found.

An inner hallway leads first to two generously proportioned double bedrooms, positioned on either side. The principal bedroom offers an impressive sense of space, featuring semi-vaulted ceilings, exposed timber beams and fitted carpet. The second bedroom is situated to the front of the property and enjoys similarly high ceilings with exposed beams, together with the added benefit of a large storage cupboard.

At the end of the hallway is a beautifully appointed three-piece shower room, complete with wood-effect flooring and fully tiled walls.

To the rear of the property, the living room and kitchen combine to create the true heart of the home. The living room is laid with carpet and centred around an inset gas burner, creating a warm and inviting focal point. The generous proportions allow ample space for both comfortable seating and a dining area.

An opening with internal bi-fold doors leads through to the bright and airy Shaker-style kitchen. A range of low-level units wraps around the room beneath solid wooden worktops, providing generous preparation space alongside an induction hob and inset sink. Integrated appliances include a double oven, dishwasher, washing machine and fridge freezer. There is also space for an additional free standing fridge freezer. Large floor-to-ceiling pantry-style cupboards surround the double oven, offering excellent storage throughout.

The property is approached via a cattle grid through the main entrance gates to Northerwood House, where a sweeping one-way driveway winds through the beautifully maintained grounds. A charming forecourt sits to the front of the Coach House, with additional off-road parking and garaging available.

The Coach House is peacefully positioned within approximately six acres of formal parkland-style grounds, featuring mature planting, established shrubs and areas of woodland. The property further benefits from its own designated outdoor space, together with a section of shared garden that has been thoughtfully arranged to provide each property with its own private area.

A mature hedgerow with a picket gate leads to this delightful, secret garden-style space, quietly positioned across the forecourt from the property. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn and offers attractive patio seating areas overlooking colourful planted borders, while enjoying peaceful views towards the surrounding woodland.
