Description
Description
A historic Grade II Listed country house with extensive equestrian facilities, blending 17th-century character with modern versatility.
Boyden End House is an exceptional Grade II Listed property extending to around 3,000 sq ft over two floors, combining period charm with extensive equestrian facilities. The house itself features red brick and rendered timber-framed elevations beneath a pitched slate roof, with the earliest part of the property dating back to the 17th century. Internally, this heritage is revealed through exposed vaulted timbers, while a later 19th-century brick gabled addition enhances its architectural appeal.
The accommodation is both generous and characterful. The ground floor flows from a welcoming entrance hall into a series of reception rooms, including a sitting room, drawing room, dining room, additional sitting room, and a traditional farmhouse-style kitchen complete with AGA. Upstairs there are four bedrooms, one with en-suite, alongside a family bathroom. An attached two-storey annexe provides additional flexibility with a bedroom, kitchen, sitting room, bathroom and WC—ideal for multi-generational living, guests, or staff.
Approached via a private driveway screened by mature hedging, the house is complemented by extensive grounds, including a large rear garden and a substantial equestrian yard. The main yard comprises five ranges of timber-clad stables on concrete bases with brick plinths, providing 32 loose boxes in total, plus additional unused stables. There is also a large open-sided pole barn with turn-out area, a four-bay horse walker, and a disused quarantine yard of 13 stables. Further facilities include a commercial storage building and a former trotting/cantering ring with grazing at its centre.
With enormous potential for redevelopment and modernisation of the equestrian facilities, Boyden End House represents a rare opportunity to acquire a historic country house with extensive land and outstanding scope for equestrian or lifestyle use.
