Listed on the property website, Rightmove, and has come to market by Ryder & Dutton, the home is currently up for sale for £1,100,000.

The home itself has been improved and extended by the current owners, with five bedrooms, three reception rooms, an open plan kitchen-dining area, a utility room and two bath/shower rooms.

The bedrooms are located on the first floor while the fifth bedroom is currently converted for use as a separate annex with its own living and dining area and en-suite shower room.

Outside, there is an American-style stable barn which has its own lockable tack room with CCTV, eight stables and a feed store.

Attached to the main house is an additional workshop and outbuilding with its own toilet and office space.

There is also a small turnout area of sand for the horses while a large parking area could fit multiple cars and HGVs or lorries.

There are an additional eight stables and hay barn within the main yard, and a manege, alongside grazing land which the listing claims could be transformed further and divided into smaller paddocks.

Rightmove describes the property as sitting in an "oasis of countryside" and says it even has the benefit of a nearby wind turbine.
