Wilkins Estate Agents are delighted to bring this Superb Country Residence with Equestrian Facilities, Planning Permission for a Huf Haus, and Idyllic Countryside Setting to market.
Moor Barns Farm presents a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional country property set in approximately 4.92 acres of beautifully maintained grounds, with far-reaching countryside views, equestrian facilities, a detached annexe, and full planning permission for a striking replacement Huf Haus dwelling with associated landscaping works (Hinckley & Bosworth Council Ref: 23/01038FUL – see attached presentation).
Currently offering nearly 3,000 sq ft (278 sqm) of versatile accommodation, the main residence exudes charm and character, comprising:
• A generous entrance porch and impressive reception hall
• 26-ft sitting room with feature fireplace and dual French doors to the patio
• Bespoke kitchen open to the dining area, with Aga and brick alcove
• Secondary reception hall, cosy snug, pantry, rear lobby, and WC
Upstairs, there are four spacious double bedrooms and a large family bathroom. The master suite benefits from a walk-in dressing room and en-suite shower room, while bedrooms three and four open onto a balcony overlooking the grounds.
The beautifully landscaped gardens are designed for outdoor entertaining, with a large patio accessible from multiple reception rooms. Beyond the lawn and floral borders lies an enchanting orchard, vegetable garden, aviary, and a charming summer house hidden behind a stone wall and reached via a whimsical yellow brick path.
The property is ideally equipped for equestrian use, including:
• Two timber stable blocks (10 stables total), rug room, feed room (with sink), wash box (with sink), and WC
• Purpose-built concrete panel muck heap
• Ménage (20m x 40m) with sand and rubber surface, complete with new mirrors
• Five paddocks (3.1 acres) with mature hedging and post-and-rail fencing, accessible from both garden and stable yard.
Located to the right of the house, a recently renovated red brick building with a new roof, porch, and restored masonry offers 102.2 sqm (1,099.7 sq ft) of floor space. With exposed beams and large windows, it lends itself perfectly as a home office, guest accommodation, grooms’ quarters, or self-contained annexe (subject to planning consent). Attached are two red brick stables and a store shed.
Planning Permission for a Contemporary Huf Haus
Approved plans are in place for an architecturally striking and energy-efficient Huf Haus replacement dwelling with accompanying annexe and extensive landscaping. Further details are available in the attached presentation.
Moor Barns Farm enjoys a secluded setting just south of the village of Orton on the Hill, Leicestershire. The property is approached via a private, tree-lined drive with a right of way from Pipe Lane, offering complete privacy amid rolling arable farmland. Nearby towns include Atherstone, Tamworth, and Ashby, with the M42/A42 only six miles away, making Birmingham and wider Midlands easily accessible.
