Welcome to Glebe Farm, a lovely countryside family home with annexe, stables, arena and garaging set on approximately eight acres of land. The land includes post and rail paddocks suitable for grazing.
To the side of the barns is an all-weather menage measuring 20x40m laid with silica sand and topped with rubber. The vendors note that the drainage is “exceptional.”
One of the large corrugated barns incorporates three large Monarch stables. Another barn provides plenty of storage space.
The corrugated barns not only include stabling, but three internal garages, one with a lift for easy maintenance of vehicles, and one with a built-in dehumidifier for specialist sports cars.
The four-bedroom stone farmhouse consists of two adjoining sections, the smaller part at the back dating to around 1800.
The bespoke fitted kitchen breakfast room, featuring an Aga with granite worktops over oak units, is in the oldest part of the building.
How stunning is this additional annexe? This barn conversion was constructed eight years ago and offers a huge decking area directly outside at the back through French doors.
The 3x11m heated indoor pool sits in a timber clad extension perpendicular to the main barn separated by contemporary glazing with sliding glass doors and two sets of bi-folding doors leading onto the garden where a pergola covers a brick-laid terrace.
