Description

AUCTION DATE: 30TH JULY 2026 - PLEASE NOTE YOU NEED TO REGISTER TO BID
A truly exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial freehold racing and equestrian estate extending to approximately 50 acres, comprising extensive commercial equestrian facilities, two detached residential dwellings and significant development potential.

Formerly operated as a professional racing establishment, the property provides a fully equipped training complex with capacity for up to 48 horses, alongside a comprehensive range of residential, commercial and leisure facilities. Of particular interest to developers and investors, the property benefits from planning permission for the construction of four detached executive family homes, each extending to approximately 3,500 sq.ft., together with consent to convert the principal facilities building into an impressive Grand Designs-style residence extending to approximately 8,500 sq.ft.

The existing estate includes a substantial five-bedroom owner's residence, a separate three-bedroom trainer's house, and a purpose-built facilities building extending to approximately 6,843 sq.ft., currently providing offices, owners' facilities, gymnasium, sauna, steam room and ancillary accommodation.

Equestrian facilities include three American-style stable barns providing 48 Monarch loose boxes, a covered horse walker, a floodlit outdoor arena, all-weather Polytrack gallop, grass gallop, wash bays, turnout paddocks and field shelters.

Occupying an attractive rural yet accessible location, the property offers an increasingly rare combination of an established equestrian business, substantial residential accommodation and significant development potential, creating a compelling proposition for developers, investors, housebuilders and equestrian operators alike.
