Outside Browns Farmhouse is approached over a private lane onto a driveway which runs alongside the stable block culminating in an area of hardstanding providing parking for several cars.
The equestrian facilities include a stable block with 5 stables and a feed/tack room and a small yard with sand school adjacent, and two paddocks, the larger of which features an extensive timber store with machinery, hay and log storage areas and a workshop behind.
To the rear of the house is an area of lawn enclosed by post and rail fence and with a raised deck, suitable for al fresco dining, and which could be allocated to the annexe.
A gate from the rear of the house leads to the enchanting woodland area which is currently home to a shepherd’s hut (not included in the sale).
There is a bridge leading to a raised section where a ladder leads to an excellent timber observation deck with wonderful views over neighbouring countryside, perfect for enjoying sunsets and a Sundowner.
