The Coach House
A short distance to the east of the main house is a substantial two-storey brick and stone coach house. Whilst retaining its original appearance, the ground floor has been innovatively used to reveal a wonderful leisure area incorporating a hydro pool, tanning salon and cinema on the ground floor. On the first floor, there is a large gymnasium and a beautifully appointed self-contained one bedroom apartment which benefits from its own private entrance from ground level to the side of the building.
Stone Barns
On approach to Socknersh Manor the driveway sweeps to an initial courtyard area which is flanked by substantial and listed stone barns. These provide secure garaging for up to 6 cars and a large, attached tractor barn. This could be equally suitable for further stabling or use as a party barn. Nearby, a 2,500 litre capacity petrol tank is concealed underground along with diesel and red diesel tanks, emergency generator and a further building and log stores.
Games Room
Situated just above the main house and virtually hidden from view, the games room is an excellent addition to the property creating great entertaining space. It is arranged with a spacious games room with bar, snooker room, fully fitted kitchen and his and hers WC‘s.
General purpose building
A continuation of the main drive leads to a general-purpose steel portal framed barn. This takes advantage of the natural, gentle fall of the land is situated to the western-most edge of the lake. Approximately 25 x 15m, it features electric doors, insulation, lighting, power and floated flooring and is ideal for multiple uses, such as storage, garaging, stabling or indoor riding school.
The Land
Beautiful parkland flanks the south and east of the house. Largely laid to grass, this area extends to the lake and valley floor. More recently fenced paddocks have been created each with water feeders and field shelters. The private woodland, also forming part of the estate to the east of the gardens, is known as Park Wood, and a mixed woodland area named Furnace Wood is situated south of the lake. The large well-stocked lake is a particular feature of the estate and benefits from a traditionally-built oak boathouse, suitable for two boats. The lake has been de-silted and enlarged in recent times and now can be enjoyed from a new jetty and bridge.
Equestrian
Socknersh Manor provides the perfect setting for a wide range of leisure pursuits. It is ideal for equestrian enthusiasts given the extensive stabling and cross-country trails throughout the grounds. In addition, there are many bridleways in the surrounding area and the house is less than 3 miles from internationally renowned Brightling Park. In all, Socknersh Manor totals approximately 55 acres.

What Other Related Technologies Does PropertyHeads Use, and Why?
Tracking Pixels: Our advertising partners may use tracking pixels or similar technology to measure the success of the sponsored posts or other advertising products they use. A “tracking pixel” (also sometimes called web beacon, or clear GIF) is a tiny piece of code, invisible to the user, placed on a webpage or in an email and used in combination with a cookie, to link a given activity or impression back to the user; the advertiser includes it in its content so it can measure whether our members interact with that content (for example, by clicking to view an offer). We may set our own tracking pixel on an advertiser’s website so we can measure whether our members found the advertiser’s content effective or interesting, by tracking whether the sponsored post prompted members to take advantage of the advertised offer. This information helps us assess whether sponsored posts and other advertising offers are relevant and interesting to our members and successful for the advertiser.
