Property description
An architecturally important Grade II* 2 bedroom residence within the grounds of Redbourne Hall. The property has been superbly refurbished to enhance the original lunette windows and roof lantern to create a unique home which redefines style. The eastern Orangery serves as both entrance and breakfast room and the central open plan Kitchen retains the original ovens and relaid flagged floors. The ground floor is completed by 2 double bedrooms with access to bathroom facilities. The dramatic mezzanine with its triple lunette windows and roof lantern creates an unrivalled social space. The property enjoys private lawned gardens ideal for al fresco relaxing. An historic home regenerated by considered craftsmanship.
Reputedly designed by the nationally acclaimed architects, Lewis and George Cubitt and influenced by the royal pavilion at Brighton in the mid 1800's to serve as the grand kitchen wing for the 9th Duke of St Albans. The property has been superbly refurbished to create a unique two bedroom home which retains and re-emphasises its former style. The original triple arched entrance now forms a stunning Orangery which could double as a delightful breakfast room. It has been designed to capture the morning sun and mirroring arches, allowing access to the central living/kitchen area which marries the restored range of ovens with a contemporary modern kitchen dramatically lit by the striking roof lantern and glass balustraded mezzanine above. There are two generous bedrooms - both of which have access to either a bathroom or shower room - which allow for more private spaces. Indeed the inclusion of modern bathroom suites, a utility and underfloor heating, re-emphasises the coach houses practical origins whilst subtly stressing its modern efficiency. It is however, the drama of the central roof light and mezzanine with its three restored Lunette windows which define this architecturally important home and creates a unique space idea for convivial relaxation or as a work space of unrivalled light. Approached over a Beech lined avenue with views across rural Lincolnshire, the Coach House lies to the rear of Redbourne Hall in a private setting which offers security and exclusivity. The restyled gardens beyond the arched façade of the former Brew House now form a beautiful, open air entertaining area which retains its quiet privacy. The outstanding attention to detail and undoubted craftsmanship distinguishes the Coach House and regenerates it to a unique home which redefines style.
