The equestrian yard is centred on a professionally constructed 20m x 40m ménage, finished with a sand and fibre surface and fitted with floodlighting for use beyond daylight hours. Positioned overlooking the arena, the five-box stable block has power and lighting to each stable, with water available in the first stable. Additional facilities comprise a separate secure tack room, feed store and log store. Double-gated access and the available yard space accommodate horseboxes and trailers. Beyond the yard, a garden area incorporates a static caravan, which may offer potential for alternative uses, subject to the relevant planning and other necessary consents. A surrounding coppice provides a natural boundary to this part of the property. A substantial workshop completes the immediate grounds. Its flexible space could suit hobbies, equipment storage or a home-based business, subject to any necessary permissions.

Situated approximately one-third of a mile from the main property, the additional land extends to approximately 7.13 acres and comprises two level, enclosed grazing fields with direct frontage onto the A489. The land benefits from full planning permission for a substantial stable block, yard, feed store and septic tank, offering scope to establish further equestrian facilities separate from the main residential and stable yard. The current owners have also completed the highway access works required to secure the planning permission. The combination of level grazing, established road access and consented development provides flexibility for buyers looking to extend their equestrian provision or adapt the smallholding to their requirements, subject to the terms and continued validity of the planning permission.
