Description

This equestrian property presents an interesting investment opportunity, featuring a farmhouse subject to an agricultural occupancy condition (AOC) and extensive equestrian facilities. With approximately 155 acres of land, it includes a successful equestrian center equipped with stables, paddocks, and a polo yard. The farmhouse comprises five bedrooms spread over two levels, accompanied by a double garage and outdoor swimming pool, all set within well-maintained gardens that offer picturesque views of the surrounding paddocks. The property also boasts a range of traditional brick stabling alongside American barn-style configurations. Featuring two all-weather arenas, including an Olympic-sized sand and rubber school, the facilities are well-constructed yet could benefit from modern enhancements. Accessed via a private drive from Hyde End Road, the land features well-fenced grassland paddocks and grazing fields, alongside river frontage and pockets of woodland that enhance the overall appeal. Situated on the outskirts of Shinfield Village, this location offers convenient access to local amenities and strong transport links to London and beyond. In addition to its residential potential, the property is being sold with existing leases in place and is subject to development overage provision. This makes it more appealing for those seeking long-term investment opportunities while considering possible future alterations or developments once necessary permissions are obtained.
