Wood End Road, Cranfield, Bedfordshire MK43

Starting life as one home dating back to 1903, High Ridge now offers over 5,500sq.ft of accommodation over three properties, two of which could be easily converted back to one large home with an indoor swimming pool.

At just over 4 acres, which includes 3 acres of grazing, the views from High Ridge are of endless countryside over Ampthill Ridge, and you can even spot the legendary Cardington Hangars on a clear day.

The properties are arrange over High Ridge, The Wing and The Annexe.

High Ridge is a single storey properties offering three bedrooms. The are two entrances; one to the front and a hallway off the inner courtyard, which itself is access off one of the driveways which also has a double garage. There is an impressive modern open-plan kitchen/dining/living room which has views over the garden through bi-fold doors. This space is completed by a private patio with sunken hot tub to really take advantage of the amazing views.

Being single storey this property would work well if you were looking for a multi-generation home for older parents. If you don't need multi-generation, High Ridge and The Wing could be combined to one home as there is a connecting hallway which is currently blocked up. If you were to do this, you may be tempted to turn the kitchen/dining/living room in High Ridge back to its original purpose - an indoor pool house! The swimming pool still remains under a suspended floor. Please note a CGI mock-up of the pool has been created using images and plans of the swimming pool - this is for illustrative purposes only and a buyer would need to satisfy themselves as to the work required to reinstate the swimming pool.

The Wing is a more traditional two storey home with a country kitchen, utility room, large living room and further reception room. There are three bedrooms on the first floor with the main bedroom having a balcony overlooking the plot.

The Annexe has three bedrooms although may be more comfortable as a two or large one bedroom space. Its 800 sq.ft make it a very comfortable space whether it be for a older child, guests or even a horse groom to make their own. There is a modern kitchen and lounge/diner. One bedroom and shower room are on the ground floor which works well if future proofing, and there are two further bedrooms to the first floor.

Although there are equestrian facilities, the impressive views make this home an attractive proposition for those who simply want a multi-generational home in a serene setting. Those who are looking for an equestrian home will be delighted with the 14m x 18m (approx.) American-style timber barn.

The barn has a tack room and four 5m x 3m (approx.) stables with the potential to add more. The adjoining manége is 50m x 30m (approx.) and has a flexi-ride surface installed on top of silica sand. There is a track which takes horses around the barn, manége and grazing area for all-year turnout. For those that enjoy hacking as well as schooling, there are bridlepaths on your doorstep.

There is a separate gated entrance to the barn which has plenty of space for a horse lorry to turn. The owners have advised us that non-native Sycamore and Leylandii have been removed.

High Ridge is within travelling distance to Keysoe International, Bury Farm Equestrian Club and Addington Equestrian Centre.
