Coldharbour Farm is on the market with Savills with a guide price of £4.75m. Let’s take a look around…
The equestrian facilities are a real feature and include a large American barn, currently with four stables to one side with internal and external doors plus a tack room and sliding doors to either end. The other side is currently utilised as a barn for agricultural storage, but additional stables could be installed if required. Above the stables is a mezzanine area accessed via a ladder, providing additional storage.
There is an Olympic-sized all-weather arena, which has lighting, plus a separate turnout/lunge pen.
The pasture is divided into some smaller turnout paddocks and three larger open and level fields which the current owner utilises to produce hay and for cross-country schooling. This property sits in a total of 23.12 acres.
A bridlepath abuts the land that provides access to an excellent network of off-road riding.
The immediate gardens and grounds are predominantly laid to landscaped lawn, with a variety of established shrubs and specimen trees.
There is a large paved terrace that spans the side of the property with views from an elevated position over the property’s paddocks and beyond. Stone steps lead to a lower level terrace and a natural swimming pool with a decked area.
Coldharbour Farm is at the end of a no-through public road. Entering the main house, there is a sitting room with wall and ceiling timbers and an inglenook fireplace inset with a wood burning stove, which opens to a reception area with a vaulted ceiling and an office in the roundel.
The kitchen/dining area is fitted with a bespoke range of wall and base units with integral appliances and skylights within a vaulted ceiling, together with bi-fold doors opening to the terrace. There is also a wine fridge and breakfast bar, plus a cloakroom with a storage cupboard.
Also on the ground floor is a play room and games room, both with feature fireplaces and a double aspect. A utility room and boot room provide additional storage and space for appliances, and there is a useful cloakroom off the entrance hall.
There are five bedrooms on the first floor, one with an en-suite shower room with twin basins and a dressing room, and one utilised as a study with stairs rising to the second floor. There is also a family bathroom and a separate shower room with a linen cupboard on the first floor.
Arranged over the entirety of the second floor is a bedroom with eaves access and an adjoining toilet.
The Cottage adjoins the outbuildings and is self-contained with a kitchen/living area with exposed timbers and wood burning stove and doors opening to the terrace. It has two bedrooms, both served by a shower room.
A range of outbuildings curve around a courtyard garden and include a number of versatile store rooms linked with an open bay log store.
The outbuildings include a gym and office with power and heating/air conditioning.
