Description
Approached from a quiet country lane, through gates on to a long tree-lined driveway, Stanbrook Farm is an impressive equestrian estate with a Grade II listed Georgian house at the heart, which was sympathetically renovated and extended a number of years ago to provide a comfortable and practical family home. Adjacent to the house is a traditional range of former farm buildings that have been partly converted into additional accommodation and with the potential to create something special from the former double-height threshing barn, which adjoins the main house.The Equestrian Business
The current owners run a successful stud breeding and producing dressage horses with an impressive 24-year career. Horses bred and raised at the stud have been successful from young horse championships through to international Grand Prix, including the British team. The equestrian yard has been cleverly designed to keep the running of the business simple and less labour-intensive with the least amount of disruption and stress to the horses.
The Land
A level ring-fenced land holding with no public rights of way across the property, the estate has been created to work in conjunction with the equestrian yard with safe cornered post and railed paddocks, turn-out fields and grassland tracks for easy access and maintenance. In addition to the Equestrian business, the owners have taken great care to create wildlife areas, encouraging biodiversity and, along with minimal artificial inputs allow flora and fauna to thrive. Beyond the formal field pattern are planted woodlands, a natural water-fed lake and a large fodder field to provide haylage production for the business.
