    Is this the home for you?

    Welcome to Elmwood. The property is set within 8.70 acres of land. It enjoys a pretty, rural location, and offers views over open countryside.

    The ring fenced land is mainly level permanent pasture enclosed by mature hedges. The main pasture field has a gateway off the driveway and there is also a separate pedestrian/equine gateway off the highway beside the garage. The pretty back paddock is sheltered and ideal for winter turnout.

    There is an outdoor arena which was constructed in 2018. It measures 24x34m and has been topped with a sand and rubber surface.

    There are five stables in total. The main stable block has two loose boxes and a secure tack room/feed store. There is also a timber stable block with two loose boxes and a tack room. There is an outbuilding which is used as a pony stable, too.

    The home is a well-presented and proportioned country house with four bedrooms which dates back to the 1950s. The vendors have significantly extended and improved the house during their ownership.

    The L-shaped kitchen/breakfast room opens to the conservatory, which makes the most of the panoramic views.

    Gardens surround the house with a large sun terrace, raised deck with pergola and outdoor heated swimming pool. Within the gardens there is also a timber summerhouse, pool shed and a hot tub, which will be included in the sale.
