Nestled on the outskirts of Marksbury, this equestrian property spans approximately 2.80 acres and boasts well-maintained stables and spacious paddocks. Offering a rural setting with extensive views of the surrounding countryside.
Description.
A practical equestrian yard located on the outskirts of Marksbury village, in an elevated position with stunning, far-reaching views, over to Wales on a clear day. Access to the yard is via a right of way over the track leading from Whidcombe Farm and then into an enclosed area with a hardcore base and plenty of space for parking and turning. The stable yard is arranged in an L-shape with two light and airy boxes and a generously sized feed room/hay store, with double doors to the front.
To the front of the stables is a good-sized concrete apron. The side and rear of the stable block is partly enclosed by mature hedges, giving shelter to the stables and providing a useful storage area.
The land is enclosed by a combination of mature hedges and post a rail fencing and is currently divided into three paddocks but could easily be adapted to suit alternative grazing needs. It is predominantly level in aspect and has been very well looked and managed over the years, producing good quality grazing.
Being located in Marksbury the equestrian facility has excellent transport links and is very well located for showjumping and other events in the south west region. Leyland Court (30 minutes), Mendip Plains (15 minutes), Badgworth Arena (40 minutes), Royal Bath and West Showground (30 minutes), as well as many many more.
