Additional Info
Lower Doiley Farmhouse
The Farmhouse is a charming and contemporary rural home. The house is accessed separately from the equestrian facilities through electric gates off Doiley Bottom Lane, where a private drive leads to a courtyard with a Willow tree in the centre. There is a large pond in front of the house, as well as a private garden to the rear. The garden and patio overlook the grazing paddocks and fields beyond. Multiple stable windows back onto the garden, so a horse can nearly always be seen.
No 4 Lower Doiley Cottage
No 4 Lower Doiley lies just to the south of the farmhouse and equestrian buildings, taking direct access from Doiley Bottom Lane. The property benefits from off street parking, front and back garden with views across the paddocks behind.
Equestrian Facilities
Lower Doiley Farm boasts an impressive array of equestrian facilities, suitable for private use or as a commercial livery yard. The large, heated tack room adjoins the house and leads to the 18 box stable yard, set around a courtyard. A number of the stables look onto the garden and drive. Each stable is fitted with individual heat lamps, automatic drinkers and Quattro stable matting. The yard has a wash box and facilities to store machinery and feed. A muck heap and horse walker lie to the rear. The 20m x 60m outdoor arena lies away from the house and buildings with a Martin Collins surface and adjacent, a circular lunging pen. The newly constructed indoor arena lies behind the stable block and extends to 20m x 40m with a wax surface and professional lighting. The land immediately surrounding the house and farm buildings is split into well sized paddocks with post and rail fencing and water troughs. The equestrian buildings may have potential for alternative uses, subject to gaining further planning advice and consent.
