Set on about 6.4 acres, the property benefits from open countryside views and is perfectly suited to those seeking a refined rural lifestyle with excellent equestrian facilities. The internal accommodation is well arranged and highly practical, centred around a welcoming entrance hallway which provides access to the principal living spaces and bedroom accommodation. The heart of the home is the open plan kitchen and sitting room, a bright, dual aspect space enjoying attractive views over the surrounding countryside. The kitchen is fitted with a range of cabinetry and incorporates a generous central island, creating a functional and sociable environment. The sitting area is focused around a Stanley solid fuel stove, providing a warm and inviting focal point throughout the year. The main bedroom is positioned off the sitting room and enjoys a quiet outlook over the grounds. A second double bedroom, accessed from the hallway, is well proportioned and equally suited for use as a guest bedroom or home office. A family bathroom, fitted with a Japanese style bath and separate shower, completes the accommodation. A rear door from the hallway provides direct access to the back garden and leads conveniently to the stable yard, located just a short distance from the house. The property further benefits from CCTV, outdoor lighting throughout the yard and arena, Starlink installed, and rural fibre broadband wired to the house and ready for connection. Land The lands extend to about 6.4 acres and are primarily laid out in well maintained grass paddock. The paddock is fully fenced and benefits from an automatic water feeder, while traffic free hacking is available directly from the yard, a particularly appealing feature for equestrian owners. The equestrian facilities are a key attribute of the property and include a block built stable yard with three large loose boxes, all fitted with professional grade partitions and automatic water feeders. Two separate tack and storage sheds provide excellent additional practicality. A professionally installed 40m x 20m all weather riding arena, fully drained and recently resurfaced, ensures year round usability and completes this highly appealing equestrian offering.
