House For Sale £695,000
A fabulous equestrian property featuring a detached four bedroom house, stables and land of about five acres.
Description
On the market for the first time in 35 years, this charming family home, built in the early 19th century, sits within an impressive plot of around five acres of land including expansive gardens, fields, a paddock and an idyllic fishing lake, along with excellent equestrian facilities. The property has a rural feel and enjoys excellent amounts of natural light with wonderful views over its own grounds and across the surrounding countryside. A particular highlight is the 20ft sitting room, complete with triple aspect, an arched window and open brick fireplace. The house is well-maintained throughout with mostly neutral interiors, offering excellent potential for further modernisation and personalisation.
The well-proportioned accommodation extends to about 2095 sq ft, accessed via a welcoming entrance porch which leads to a spacious hall providing access to the cloakroom with WC, sitting room and formal dining room with feature fireplace. The well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room features bespoke cabinetry, a range cooker (not include) and a snug/breakfast area with a bay window and a dual aspect. A utility room adjoins the kitchen with side access and a boiler room/tack room. Upstairs there is a 20ft principal bedroom enjoying a dual aspect and stunning views. There are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom on this floor.
The house is located at the end of a quiet lane, set within expansive and varied grounds of about five acres, including beautiful gardens, fields, a paddock and an idyllic fishing lake. The secluded rear garden enjoys a favourable south-facing aspect and is landscaped to include lawns, mature trees, a greenhouse and a paved terrace adjoining the house which is ideal for entertaining. There is a substantial driveway to the front which has parking for a number of vehicles. The property is ideal for equestrians and further benefits from a tractor shed, six stables, a workshop and a barn.
The current owners have been renting an adjoining paddock from a neighbour which is about 2 acres but has not been measured by Savills. This would be available to rent by separate negotiation.
