Description

A unique and exciting opportunity to acquire this equestrian set-up including a 4 bedroom detached home, 4.5 acres of land, stabling, tack room, parking and garage in a tucked away position on the outskirts of the popular village of Chaffcombe.

An attractive, well-proportioned and conveniently situated four-bedroom detached house with parking, garage stabling and occupying grounds extending to more than 4 and a half acres. In brief the property comprises an entrance hall, kitchen/dining room, sitting room, utility, WC and dining room to the ground floor and four bedrooms (one ensuite) and a family bathroom to the first floor.

The well-equipped kitchen/dining room with recently upgraded Granite worktops is the heart of the home with views to front and rear and ample room for a large dining table. It’s a wonderful space for socialising and on a practical level, has direct access into the good size utility with WC beyond.

The full depth, triple aspect sitting room is the perfect setting for relaxing throughout the seasons, with French doors seamlessly uniting inside with out and a brick surround fireplace offering an attractive focal point and great source of heat.

The dining room, which makes up the remainder of the ground floor, will be of particular note for those who enjoy more formal entertaining. All the bedrooms are generously proportioned with the master having the luxury of its own ensuite. The remaining three bedrooms are serviced by the family bathroom.

Newlands Farm will ideally suit those with equestrian needs and would also work well for families and those looking for a taste of ‘the good life’. Its setting, views and land are a rare find and we would strongly encourage you to view to fully appreciate all it has to offer.
