Full Description

Set within a Conservation Area in the picturesque village of Great Coates, The Grange is an exceptional Grade II listed former farmhouse dating back to circa 1770, offering some 3,700 sq. Ft. Of beautifully proportioned accommodation steeped in character, history and charm.

Approached via a gated gravel driveway, the property immediately creates a striking first impression. Passing a tranquil pond and the neighbouring Grade i-listed St Nicolas Church, the approach reveals a home rich in heritage, surrounded by a sense of peace and privacy. The elegant Georgian frontage remains discreetly hidden from the driveway. The entire property is enveloped in mature Virginia creeper that transforms from a vibrant green into spectacular shades of ruby red during the autumn months.

Occupying the site of a medieval manor with remnants of the original moat still visible, The Grange combines historic significance with an idyllic parkland setting. Mature trees frame the property on all sides, creating an atmosphere of complete seclusion while still being exceptionally well-connected.

The ground floor continues to impress with three elegant reception rooms, each showcasing individual character and period detailing.

The formal dining room flows seamlessly into a refined sitting room complete with a Portland Stone fireplace and multi-fuel stove.

The spacious living room features a Portuguese Estremoz marble fireplace with Jetmaster gas fire and opens into a sun lounge with direct access to the south-facing patio.

A handsome study with a bay window and an Ancaster Stone fireplace provides the ideal home office or reading room.

Beneath the house lies a fascinating brick barrel-roofed wet cellar, believed to predate the property itself by approximately 100 years.

The staircase rises to a generous first-floor landing, leading to five substantial double bedrooms, including an impressive principal which could easily be divided to create an additional bedroom if desired. The luxurious main bathroom features a Victoria + Albert bath, walk-in shower and twin wash basins, complemented by a separate family shower room finished with a Matki walk-in shower.
