General Description
Smiths Property Experts are favoured with instruction to market this period family home with exceptional equestrian facilities. Set on approximately 5 acres, the property features landscaped gardens and spectacular views of open countryside. It is located 1.5 miles from the historic Market Bosworth and all its amenities.
The current owners have completed extensive renovations to the property, its associated outbuildings, and land during their ownership. The result is a spacious family home in ‘move-in’ condition with South-facing mature gardens and first-class equestrian facilities.
The Main House
This generous and comfortable family home has accommodation on two floors. The current owner has completely renovated and sympathetically extended the property, which has oil-fired central heating and double glazing throughout.
Expect to find accommodation with beautiful period features. The floor area extends to over 3,000 square feet (including the cellar) with living accommodation centred around a South-facing outlook over private gardens, paddocks, and open countryside beyond.
In brief, expect to find five reception rooms, including a farmhouse-style kitchen/diner, a garden room, a sitting room, a dining room/study, and a magnificent formal living/dining room with a vaulted ceiling and Inglenook style feature fireplace with a wood-burning stove inset. There is a downstairs WC and a fantastic boot/tack room with a second WC.
Upstairs, the accommodation is flexible and centred around a landing with three large double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom suite has a large walk-through dressing room that would also make an excellent nursery or could potentially be split to create a fourth bedroom. The principal bedroom has a wonderful, vaulted ceiling and separate en-suite facilities.

Equine Facilities
In our opinion, it is rare to find such well-serviced and presented equestrian facilities in a residential setting. A collection of high-quality outbuildings, refurbished by the current owners to include new floors and roof coverings, are positioned opposite the front of the main house. The outbuildings provide approximately 1,484 square feet of floor space, with four large stables, a tractor store, a general store, and a workshop. There is also a substantial first-floor hayloft store.
Secondary vehicular access is to the rear of the outbuildings, which is ideal as a working yard with running water and power and a secondary stable. Behind the yard is a 40 x 25m manège.
The paddocks are in excellent condition, well-drained, and currently defined by post-and-rail fencing. Three paddocks, totalling approximately two and a half acres, are to the North and West of the site, and a further two-acre paddock is to the South.
