Presenting an exquisite opportunity to own a piece of English heritage, The Coach House, No. 9 is a remarkable three double bedroom family home forming the West Wing of the original Coach House on the historic Cheveley Park Private Estate. Featured in the 1671 painting of Cheveley Park by Jan Siberechts, this stunning residence blends an abundance of original character features with contemporary luxury—offering a truly unique and elegant living experience.

Sympathetically renovated to the highest standards throughout, the home is discreetly tucked away within the exclusive Cheveley Park Private Estate, just 2 miles from Newmarket, with excellent access to Cambridge (c.15 miles), Bury St Edmunds (c.14 miles), and Newmarket Train Station—a mere 6-minute drive or 35-minute walk.
