An exceptional country residence set within the grounds of Malton and Norton Golf Club, offering beautifully landscaped gardens, elegant reception space and high-specification living.

Description Set discreetly within the grounds of Malton and Norton Golf Club, The Coach House is an exceptional country residence of considerable architectural distinction, extending to approximately three acres of landscaped gardens and grounds.

Since 2011, The Coach House has been subject to a comprehensive programme of enhancement and extension, culminating in a significant redevelopment in 2021.

The property now offers an enviable balance of privacy, scale and accessibility, just 19 miles from York.

Approached via a sweeping, tree-lined driveway, the house is revealed in an impressively secluded setting.

The principal residence is complemented by a self-contained two-bedroom annexe and a substantial triple garage, together forming a private and cohesive estate.

The reception hall provides a striking introduction, with vaulted ceilings, exposed timber trusses and a finely crafted oak split staircase rising to a galleried landing.

From here, a series of elegant reception rooms unfold.

The formal drawing room centres on a stone fireplace with multi-fuel stove, while the principal family room is distinguished by five arched Tudor-style French doors, opening directly onto the rear terrace and gardens beyond.

The heart of the house lies in the expansive open-plan kitchen and informal living space, designed and installed by The Handmade Kitchen Company.

Bespoke two-tone shaker cabinetry is paired with quartz work surfaces and a comprehensive suite of integrated appliances by AEG (Signature range) and bora.

Tiled flooring with underfloor heating runs throughout, while twin roof lanterns introduce an abundance of natural light.

A walnut-framed sunken seating area with corner bi-folding doors creates a seamless connection to the gardens, offering uninterrupted views and an exceptional space for entertaining.

Adjoining the kitchen is a bespoke bar area, also crafted by The Handmade Kitchen Company, complete with a dual-zone wine fridge, dedicated beer refrigeration and a central island, ideally suited to hosting on both intimate and larger scales.

An octagonal dining room, with vaulted ceiling and French doors, provides a further distinctive reception space, lending architectural interest and versatility.

To the eastern wing of the house lies a practical yet beautifully appointed suite of ancillary rooms, including a boot room, utility room with bespoke cabinetry and integrated laundry solutions, plant room and a well-finished ground floor bathroom.

A classically styled snooker room completes the ground floor accommodation, retaining original detailing and lighting, and offering an atmospheric setting for leisure and entertaining.

The first floor is arranged around a galleried landing and comprises five well-proportioned double bedrooms.

The principal suite benefits from a Juliet balcony overlooking the gardens, a generous dressing room and a luxurious en suite bathroom with freestanding bath, separate walk-in shower and refined contemporary finishes.

The remaining bedrooms each display individual character, enhanced by exposed beams and excellent natural light.

Two family bathroom suites serve these rooms, both appointed to a high specification with quality tiling, modern sanitaryware and considered detailing.

The house is served by a modern ground source heat pump system (Ecogeo B1 5–22), providing energy-efficient central heating and underfloor heating to key areas of the home.
