Set in three acres, this contained equestrian set-up is surrounded by miles of stunning countryside, perfect for hacking. The grazing totals two acres and includes a winter turnout paddock.
There are two stables at present, with rubber matting and automatic water drinkers. There is also an undercover hot water wash down and tie up area, an insulated tack room and hard standing for trailer parking.
When you’re not out enjoying the countryside, ensure your training is up to scratch in the 18x25m outdoor arena with Pro-Ride surface.
The house has accommodation set over two floors, with the lower floor underground.
Boasting oak trusses and sections of exposed stone, the ground floor’ hall leads into an open-plan, fitted kitchen, which has space for a dining area.
