Description

NO CHAIN. Guide £1,000,000 - £1,100,000. An exceptional equestrian estate set within approximately five acres of beautifully maintained, private grounds, offering an enviable lifestyle for both horse enthusiasts and those seeking refined country living.

The grounds are a true highlight of the property-meticulously cared for and thoughtfully arranged to provide both functionality and visual appeal. Expanses of well-kept paddocks are framed by established boundaries, creating a picturesque and tranquil setting, while the dedicated equestrian facilities are discreetly positioned with their own separate access. These include a professionally prepared 20 x 40m flood lit sand school, all weather turn out paddock, four substantial 12ft x 12ft stables, a fully equipped tack room, feed room ,W.C, Kitchen Area, hay barn, and extensive hard standing, all benefitting from water and electricity supply.

The entire setup reflects a high standard of care and attention, ideal for both private and semi-professional use. The approach to the property is equally impressive, with a large gated driveway providing a sense of arrival and offering extensive parking. The mature, landscaped gardens surrounding the home are well established, featuring a variety of planting, open lawned areas, and useful outbuildings-perfect for enjoying the peaceful surroundings or entertaining guests in a private, countryside setting. There is rear access with a hard standing to the far end of the grounds off a Private Lane.

The residence itself is a spacious four-bedroom detached bungalow, offering light-filled and versatile accommodation. A generous kitchen/diner forms the heart of the home, complemented by a substantial living room and a separate family room, providing ample space for both relaxation and entertaining. There is also a significant loft area, presenting further opportunity. Planning permission has been granted for extensions to the rear and into the loft space, allowing for the creation of a truly outstanding, bespoke family residence that fully capitalises on the scale and beauty of the grounds. Situated within a highly sought-after private estate, this remarkable property is offered with no onward chain, presenting a rare opportunity to acquire a luxurious equestrian home in an idyllic and exclusive setting.
