S O L D - - Converted traditional single roundel detached Oast House (unlisted) set in 9.25 acres (*TBV) in a tranquil, rural position. Situated half a mile along a private lane, this exceptional property boasts well-presented equestrian facilities, plus a further detached Cart Lodge/Garage with lapsed planning to convert into a one bedroom annexe. This most attractive 3-bedroom family home is tastefully decorated in a contemporary rural style. A focal point of the ground floor accommodation is the large open plan kitchen and breakfast room with Aga leading into a dining area. An air of spaciousness and light flows through the house with unique roundel sitting room and master bedroom. Outside, extensive surrounding gardens make the most of the views and include a bespoke outdoor kitchen and entertaining space. The well organised equestrian facilities include an L Shaped timber stable block with 4 loose boxes, tack/feed room. All are adjacent to the post and railed 40m x 20m riding arena. The adjoining pastureland is divided into 2 large paddocks with established hedgerows. The locality is renowned for lovely walks and bridleways and the nearby villages.

The acreage stated at the property is *TBV - (To Be Verified), which means that the land has not been formally measured by Equus and or its sellers/clients.

Interested applicants/buyers are advised that if they have any doubts as to the plot size and wish to have verification of the exact area of the entire plot, they will be required to make their own arrangements, at their own cost, by appointing the services of an accredited company who can measure the area for a compliant Land Registry Title Plan.
