Escape to rurality at The Coach House, a characterful home, formerly serving as stables to the neighbouring Kellington Manor, nestled on the fringe of the village and surrounded by paddock views.

Rural refuge

Wrought iron gates open to the neatly block paved driveway, where there is ample parking for six cars alongside a large car port. An accessible, spacious, detached home, The Coach House has been sympathetically extended over the years and offers versatile one-level living, ideal for multi-generational families.

Nestled on a large plot, with church views and vistas across the quiet Whales Lane to fields at the front and a backdrop of paddocks, the tranquil setting of The Coach House provides a bastion of peace to return home to, day after day.

A handful of homes provides the reassurance of neighbours, whilst the secluded setting of The Coach House ensures it retains a private feel.

A warm welcome

Make your way in through the front door onto the flagstone flooring of the entrance hallway, where underfloor heating creates a welcoming ambience, a feature which continues throughout the home. Beyond its characterful exterior, The Coach House is an old home made new, replastered, refitted with new bathrooms and kitchen and finished in oak skirtings and doors.

A bright and bountiful hallway, automatically illuminated after dark by low level sensor lighting, sense the scale of this home instantly, as you make your way left into the large open-plan kitchen.

Flagstone flooring flows through seamlessly from the entrance hallway, harmonising with the rustic touches throughout including an exposed redbrick wall, copper Belfast sink with brass taps, and handmade central island on brick base, topped in robust Dekton.

Feast your eyes

Feature pendant lights illuminate the sociable central island which also serves as a breakfast bar for casual dining, seating up to 12 people. Modern gloss cream cabinetry offers ample storage, containing a selection of integrated appliances including a dishwasher and fridge-freezer alongside a brand new Smeg cooker and hood.

Beyond the spacious kitchen, an archway leads through to the sitting room, with arched windows drawing in a constant stream of natural light. Strikingly set in the centre of the room is a large redbrick fireplace featuring a log-burning stove, with armchairs set opposite.

Plush carpet extends underfoot. Beyond the fireplace, views extend through the bay window to the front over the fields, and through a large arched window at the side to the courtyard. Naturally zoned into two areas, this sumptuous sitting room is ideal for entertaining and relaxing.

Soak & sleep

Returning to the kitchen, open an oak door to discover a bountifully sized bedroom. Enter into a cosy snug area where light pours down from a Velux window above and colour changing LED lights, before the main bedroom opens up ahead, carpeted underfoot and awash with light from the characterful arched windows, overlooking the fields.

Storage is in abundance in the large walk-in wardrobe with shelving and hanging space, whilst there is also a stylish ensuite. Tiled in grey, and warmed by underfloor heating, the ensuite features a vanity unit wash basin, WC, heated towel radiator and large shower with rainfall head, body jet-washers and LED colour changing lights. A frosted window draws light in from the fields beyond.

Make your way back through the kitchen to the entrance hall, turning left and left again to arrive at the family bathroom. Tiled to the walls and floor, and furnished with wash basin, LED mirror and WC, enjoy a relaxing soak in the deep, centrally filling Jacuzzi bath, with ambient colour change lighting.

Next to the bathroom, tucked off the hallway is the utility room, a large room with brand new storage cupboards, plumbing for a washer and dryer and space for all your ironing. A door connects you directly with the outdoors. Beyond the utility room is access to a handy storeroom.

Returning back along the hallway, turn left into the fourth bedroom, carpeted and spacious. A comfortable double bedroom, this room currently serves as a study.

Back in the hallway, turning left by the front door, another inner hallway takes you to a large guest bedroom, newly carpeted underfoot and currently furnished with a king-size bed.

Next door on the left is a super-king-size bedroom, spotlit to the ceiling and cosily carpeted underfoot.

The master suite

Opposite this make your way through to the master suite. Light streams in through French doors, which open out to the courtyard. Wood panelling adds warmth with ample space for a super-king-size bed and additional furnishings. This bedroom also features a home cinema system with 120 inch projector and built-in surround sound.

Step up to the panelled dressing area, where three Velux windows draw an abundance of light through. Carpeted underfoot, there is also a walk-in wardrobe with ample storage and shelving.

Relax and refresh in comfort and style, in this newly fitted spa-style shower room. Black twin sinks reside in a large traditional wooden unit with ample storage, whilst the supremely sized walk-in shower features illuminated alcoves alongside a waterfall showerhead and four large brass showers in each corner. LED lighting accompanies a black and gold theme for a truly indulgent feel.

Borrowed light peeps over the partition wall from the dressing room beyond, where the Velux windows shower natural daylight through.

Sociable spaces

At the end of this hallway, lift the wrought iron latch on the oak door to enter the conservatory, a sunny and spacious room with stunning views out over the garden, where French doors provide an instant connection with the outdoors.

Perfect for sociable summer gatherings, this room also links to the pool room, housing a large hydrotherapy pool and featuring new flagstone flooring underfoot. Double doors provide a seamless link to the garden once more.

Garden delights

Outside, the mature garden is spacious and private, yet low maintenance - the perfect balance. Ideal for those with children or pets, there is ample space to play on the lawn, with a pretty pond to the centre.

Landscaped and low maintenance, there are plenty of patio areas upon which to relax and recline in the summer months.

Through a gate to the rear discover a secret garden, where there are also solar panels and brand-new decking. From here watch the horses graze in the paddocks to the rear. There is also a workshop and large shed for storage of garden items.

In addition to solar panels, the home is served by a Ground Source Heat Pump.

OWNER QUOTE: "We had plans drawn up for an annex in the garden. The neighbouring home also has an annex in the garden, so there is definitely scope there."

On your doorstep

Embrace the peace and tranquility of this restful rural location, surrounded by farmland and set along a quiet country lane. Ideal for dog walkers and equestrian enthusiasts, there is an abundance of walks and hacks from the doorstep.

Visible from the front of the home is the historic St Edmund's Church, dating back centuries and mentioned in the Domesday book.

Nestled on the fringe of the quiet country village of Kellington, dine out with ease at Kellington Manor House, a country restaurant conveniently situated next door to The Coach House.

Further into the village there is a pub called The Red Lion, whilst you can find The Horse and Jockey in nearby Eggborough. In Eggborough you will also find a local shop. For wider shopping options, head into Selby or Pontefract, just a little further down the road.

Commute with ease, Kellington affords excellent motorway links with the M62 only five minutes' drive away. Meanwhile Northern Rail services run from nearby Whitely Bridge train station.

Families are well placed, with a primary school in the local village, and a selection of secondary schools within 10 minutes' drive. There is also a handy park in the village for children.

Spacious, light and combining characterful charm with the convenience of contemporary touches, The Coach House is an accessible and welcoming Tardis of a home, ideal for multigenerational living and especially suited to those who love the peace and tranquility of the countryside.
