HILL Farm is a superb equestrian property with grounds of approximately 14 acres, in a rural setting on the outskirts of the market town of Hadleigh, Suffolk.

Recently renovated and extended, this spacious four-bedroom house has purposebuilt equestrian facilities including two stable yards, hay store, feed room, tack room, 40m x 20m manege and paddocks with a riding track around the perimeter.

Originally built in the early part of the 20th century, Hill Farm has been renovated and extended during the course of the past two years.

It offers spacious living accommodation with an open space living area on the ground floor, plus utility and boot room areas ideal for country living.

The property has been finished to a good standard throughout including a newly-fitted kitchen complete with appliances and newlyfitted sanitary ware.

Externally, the house has brick elevations under a pitched roof clad with tiles. It benefits from UPVC sealed unit double glazing and oil-fired radiator heating.

The purpose-built equestrian facilities have been well thought out, with undercover working areas in the main stable block and a useful riding track around the field boundary.

Access can be via a separate driveway if required.

The main yard features an eight-stable block with 14ft overhang incorporating hay store, tack room and feed store, seven loose boxes and one foaling box. All eight boxes have auto drinkers.

The stable block is of heavy duty timberframed construction on a block and brick plinth with a large concrete base presenting weatherboard elevations under pitched roofs, clad with composite slate. Light, power and water are connected.

There is also separate small stable yard with two loose boxes and a stallion box all with auto drinkers, tack room and feed store.

The secondary stable yard is located nearer to the house and would be ideal if the owners wished to have a small yard separate from the main yard.

■ Hill Farm is on the market for £665,000.

Viewing is strictly by appointment only.
