A former coach house in Nelson, that dates back to the 1800s, is the perfect home for history-lovers.

The Coach House at Marsden Hall is a beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated home that dates back to 1823.

While it has retained many of its historical features, it has also been modernised to suit a 21st century buyer.

The detached four-bedroom home, which is on the market for £594,950, offers an ideal setting for family living. It is within walking distance of Marsden Hall Park, providing green space and a peaceful environment right on your doorstep.

Entering through the front door, you will find a welcoming entrance hallway that sets the tone for the rest of the house. The hallway features a stone flag floor, exposed brick wall, and a cast-iron radiator.

The focal point of the hallway is an elegant staircase with an open balustrade and runner carpet.

The master bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and its own en-suite shower room, which includes a modern three-piece suite, a walk-in rainfall shower, a vanity sink and stylish wood-effect flooring.

The remaining three bedrooms appear bright and spacious.

The main bathroom has been fully modernised, featuring a stylish four-piece suite, including a roll-top bath and a separate walk-in rainfall shower.

The kitchen is ideal for any ‘foodies’ and it has a modern aesthetic, with LED strip lighting, and space for a freestanding fridge-freezer. The kitchen opens directly onto the garden through patio doors.

The living room is a focal point of the home. It is very spacious and features exposed wood ceiling beams, an exposed brick fireplace, and a coal fire. This room opens onto a rear balcony with impressive views towards Pendle Hill.

The dining room provides a formal setting for family meals or entertaining guests. Double doors connect the dining room to the living room, allowing for a fluid transition between spaces.

The sitting room offers a more intimate atmosphere, with exposed ceiling beams, space for comfortable seating, and plenty of natural light from the side window.

Aswell as the kitchen on the ground floor, there is also a breakfast kitchen on the first floor, which combines functionality with rustic charm. It features a range of fitted units, a large central island, and integrated appliances.

The exposed wood beams and wood-effect flooring give the kitchen a warm, inviting feel.

The exterior of The Coach House is equally impressive. The property is accessed via electric gates, leading to a flagged driveway with ample space for parking.

The rear garden is meticulously landscaped, featuring a well-maintained lawn, mature trees, and flowerbeds. There are multiple patio areas, both flagged and decked, designed for outdoor dining and relaxation.

Additional amenities include outdoor electrics, a wall-mounted patio heater, and exterior water access, making the garden suitable for year-round enjoyment.

A spokesperson for Hilton & Horsfall, which is marketing the property, said: “Dating back to 1823, this is a truly stunning detached property that oozes of charm and character, having the perfect blend of traditional and modern throughout.

“This dwelling boasts a unique character that sets it apart form the rest. Maintained to a high standard throughout and briefly comprising.”
