SPARROWS FARM

Debden Green, essex

For you: a detached four-bedroom farmhouse located in a tranquil setting.

Plans have previously been passed for substantial single- and double-storey extensions. Interior features include exposed timber frame, natural flagstone and oak flooring, and the kitchen boasts a traditional AGA. Two of the four bedrooms offer en suite facilities. The house is discreetly set part-way down a byway access, which continues to Culters Green, offering ideal hacking.

For the horses: the first-class equestrian facilities include seven stables that are set around an L-shaped yard, as well as a covered grooming bay, horse walker, hay barn, solarium and a spacious parking area for a horsebox. The outdoor arena measures 20x60m and has a sand, wax and fibre surface as well as a covered seating area. The grazing totals 4.5 acres and is currently split into 10 paddocks, with five sitting on either side of the property.

Usp: within the gardens is a fenced tennis court and a summerhouse studio from which you can view the court.
