Never miss out on the latest happenings in the equestrian world
The equestrian facilities are extensive and have been modernised and improved by the current owners. The facilities include an indoor arena with viewing gallery, which measures approximately 36x17m. This arena has a sprinkler system too.
There are 12 stables of which four are internal, plus there is a solarium, wash bay, feed room, tack room and store rooms.
There is also an outdoor arena and multiple well-maintained paddocks with post and rail fencing – these are also connected to mains water. The current owners have removed some stables to provide agricultural machinery storage/workshop space. There is potential, therefore, for further stables across the yard.
The house is framed by pretty borders and a duck pond within the immediate driveway. The grounds include an outdoor swimming pool and tennis court.
The current owners have converted part of the property into extensive ancillary facilities including a modern leisure complex with indoor pool, gym, sauna, steam room, spa pool, a store room and plant and boiler room. Adjoining the leisure complex is a home office, which includes an open plan office with a double height ceiling and mezzanine floor above, plus a shower room and kitchenette.
The main house is a Grade II-listed 15th Century timber-framed home with a Horsham stone roof, which has been beautifully maintained and is in excellent condition.
The accommodation includes an entrance stair hall, which connects through to a drawing/dining room and inner hallway. The drawing/dining room is the largest reception room in the house and features an inglenook fireplace. The sitting room has been extended to create a light and well-proportioned living space with bi-folding doors leading out to the terrace and south-facing garden. The snug offers further entertaining and family living space with storage.
The kitchen was also extended some years ago, creating a large open plan family/dining area. There is further scope to extend the kitchen into an orangery via an existing planning permission granted in May 2023. The accommodation also includes a utility/laundry room, study and cloakroom.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom has a dressing room and en-suite bathroom and has views over the gardens and paddocks. There are a further four bedrooms – three of which are en-suite – and a family bathroom.
On the west side of the courtyard, the Stable Cottage includes a kitchen and sitting room, which leads into a conservatory, snug, three bedrooms and bathroom.
Stud Cottage has a kitchen, dining room, sitting room, bathroom and two bedrooms. Adjoining, but separately accessed, is a large utility/laundry room.
Adjoining the Office Barn is a flat with accommodation over two floors, including a kitchen/breakfast room, two bedrooms, a bathroom, cloakroom and sitting room.
