Description
A FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE A HIGH QUALITY EQUESTRIAN FACILITY, IN A VERY DESIRABLE LOCATION, SET IN APPROX 6.5 ACRES
Description - The Barnyard is a purpose built equestrian facility, which was granted planning permission in 2020 to “Demolish existing buildings and replace with stable block, workshop/hay store and riding arena and change of use from agricultural to equestrian”.
The property has been well designed to suit a private or professional user, with an interest in a range of disciplines. It is located along March Lane, a no-through road on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Churton.
The gated entrance leads you into a large stoned area, perfect for plenty of parking and turning for large horseboxes. This leads to the large steel framed portal building, with brick and concrete elevations and timber cladding. The building has water and power connected and roller shutters doors to two elevations. The building is currently used as a store and workshop for a farrier business but it has the ability for alternative uses subject to the relevant planning permissions.
Beyond this building are the main equestrian facilities, namely a L-shaped brick and timber built stable range, with six stables and feed/tack rooms. The stables have water and power connected, cantilever roof and fully drained concrete flooring. Adjacent the stables is a 25x40m outdoor arena with carpet surface. The arena is fully drained and enhances the facilities.
The land is all down to grass and is well fenced with a boundary stocked fish pond.
Location - The Barnyard is positioned in a rural, yet accessible location, surrounded by beautiful countryside and within easy access to local towns and villages, being just a few miles from the historic city of Chester and the popular villages of Holt and Farndon. Local services are provided in Holt and Farndon; which have doctors surgery, schools and a range of shops and restaurants. Nearby Wrexham and Chester offer a wider range of services and amenities.
Despite the property’s rural location, it enjoys excellent road communications being close to the A534 which links Wrexham with Nantwich and the A483 linking Chester to mid Wales.
The area is extremely popular with equestrian enthusiasts with Broxton Hall Gallops only a short distance away and Kelsall Hill offering plenty of dressage and show jumping events suitable to all levels. The property is ideally located on a quiet country lane providing great hacking immediately from the property. For the racing enthusiast, Bangor-on-Dee racecourse is only a short distance away and Chester racecourse nearby.
