Summary
The Coach House, Becks Croft offers a rare opportunity to purchase a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom detached cottage set down a non-vehicular lane off the historic mile long High Street in Henley-in- Arden. Providing opportunity to refurbish and create a beautiful home, with delightful south facing garden.

Interior specification
The Coach House is an attractive, detached cottage set back from the High Street on a peaceful lane, enjoying no passing traffic yet just steps from the conveniences and charm of this historic market town.

Situated in a private position, The Coach House stands proudly in the heart of the village. Approaching the property, you are immediately struck by its historic charm: white-painted brickwork, newly fitted windows, and an arched doorway adorned with climbing rose in bloom during summer, while the gravelled lane provides access from both the car park and High Street.

The property is full of character and period features, including exposed beams and old doors, the property offers an excellent opportunity to modernise and create a beautiful home, or alternatively, to serve as a pied-à-terre or Airbnb.

Entering through the arched doorway, you are welcomed into a delightful, fitted kitchen with a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams. Off-white shaker-style cabinetry and wood-effect worktops complement integrated appliances including a fridge-freezer, cooker, and plumbing for a washing machine.

Stepping down from the kitchen, the dining room offers open plan living and entertaining space, with a picture window overlooking Becks Croft. A Worcester combi boiler is housed in a useful storage cupboard, with a further cupboard under the stairs.

One of the bedrooms and the ground-floor bathroom are also located on this level, ideal for use as a guest room, home office, or wellness suite. From the dining room, you enter the spacious lounge, featuring wooden flooring, ample space for sofas and a TV, and sliding doors that fill the room with summer sunshine and providing access to the private terrace and garden.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom boasts vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, a dressing area, and a large bathroom.

The property benefits from gas central heating and double glazing, refitted in 2024. Unlike many historic homes in Henley-in-Arden, The Coach House is not listed, making renovations and upgrades more straightforward. Subject to planning, there is potential to extend over the lounge to create an additional bedroom with an ensuite.

A truly wonderful opportunity to own such a charming, detached cottage, filled with character and years of memories and yet ready for to make it your own!
