OPEN DAY SUNDAY 13th APRIL 11am-2pm

Property Summary

An exciting opportunity to acquire a fully completed equestrian yard with a newly constructed stable block and a shepherd's hut benefitting from residential planning permission, all set within approximately 5 acres of pastureland in the heart of Dartmoor National Park. Available as a single lot, this versatile property is ideal for equestrian enthusiasts or professionals looking for a well-connected yet peaceful setting.

Description
Set in a prime location near Buckland-in-the-Moor, this equestrian property now comprises two fields extending to approximately 5 acres (2.02 hectares) of gently sloping, south-facing pasture, divided by mature Devon Banks and trees. The land is enclosed by mature hedgerows and enjoys far-reaching views across the surrounding Dartmoor countryside, offering both seclusion and easy accessibility.

The stable block has been recently completed, offering excellent modern facilities with capacity for 9 stables, a secure tack room, a hay store, and a general store room, all designed to a high standard with equestrian welfare and practicality in mind. The yard layout allows for efficient movement and horse management, suitable for private use or a small equestrian business.

Complementing the equestrian facilities is a charming shepherd's hut, now benefitting from full residential planning permission in association with the equestrian business. This well-appointed unit provides temporary on-site living accommodation, perfect for owner-occupiers, grooms, or visiting clients. The hut offers immediate convenience while retaining the flexibility for longer-term development, subject to necessary consents.

Equestrian & Competition Access
The property is ideally positioned within a region renowned for its equestrian culture. Dartmoor National Park itself provides superb hacking and outriding opportunities directly from the gate, with miles of bridleways and open moorland to explore.

Additionally, the site offers excellent access to a range of equestrian events and competitions. Within easy reach are several well-established venues, including Bicton Arena, Southcott XC, Pontispool Equine Sports Centre, and The Grange Equestrian Centre, all hosting regular unaffiliated and affiliated competitions (BE, BD, BS). The location is also well-connected to the A38 and the wider motorway network, facilitating straightforward transport to national events.

Access
The property is accessed via a shared private driveway leading from Elliots Hill Lane, a quiet, council-maintained road. The gateway provides easy entry for horseboxes, trailers, and service vehicles, with ample turning and parking space within the yard.
