    The Old Pottery is situated in an elevated position surrounded by countryside. It offers stunning views for miles and miles…

    The current owners run competition horses from the base and they noted that there is excellent hacking from the property so you can spend your weekends exploring the local area.

    There is six acres of land in total and included in this acreage are six paddocks suitable for grazing. The land is located to the side and to the rear of the stables.

    There is also a 25x40m all-weather school which has a sand and rubber surface, post and rail fencing and floodlights so you can train in all weathers, at any time of day.

    There is an L-shaped stable block with four stables, a tack room, a hay and feed room and a rug and bedding room. Each of the stables has rubber matting, which may be available via separate negotiation.

    The home is a four-bedroom detached stone house with accommodation set across two floors.

    The garden surrounds the property and it boasts an extensive patio seating area with a brick-built BBQ, lawned areas, a gravelled courtyard seating area and a path to a gate leading onto the road.

    The kitchen is fitted with a range of bespoke painted wooden units with wooden work surfaces, integrated dishwasher, central island and breakfast bar. Other features of character include exposed ceiling beams, slate tiled flooring and two sets of double doors opening onto the side garden patio area.

    This handy office space would make working from home a doddle, and within one minute of clocking off you’d be out at the stables…
