7 bedroom equestrian property for sale

This substantial property occupies an exceptional rural setting within the heart of Constable Country and offers a rare opportunity to acquire a versatile country home with significant potential, combining space, privacy and an enviable location of outstanding natural beauty. The property comprises an extensive farmhouse now requiring modernisation, together with a generous range of outbuildings, equestrian facilities and grounds extending to approximately 7.5 acres (STS).

The property is approached via electric gates which open onto a sweeping gravel driveway, providing access to both the farmhouse and the range of outbuildings. This private arrival immediately sets the tone, offering a sense of seclusion while revealing the breadth of the holding and its rural surroundings.
Once inside the house, the accommodation is arranged over two principal floors and provides generous, well-proportioned rooms with excellent scope for reconfiguration and modernisation. The ground floor offers four reception rooms, complemented by a kitchen and breakfast room, a study and a conservatory enjoying views over the grounds. Practical spaces include a boot room / utility area and a cloakroom, supporting the day-to-day requirements of a working country home.
On the first floor, the main house provides five bedrooms served by three bath/shower rooms. A separate staircase rises to an additional suite of rooms which could operate as ancillary accommodation, comprising a kitchen/living area, two further bedrooms and a shower room, offering flexibility for extended family, guests or multi-generational living.
Outside, the grounds extend to approximately 7.5 acres (STS) and are a defining feature of the property, combining more formal garden areas with paddocks and open land, all set against a backdrop of gently rolling countryside. The gardens surrounding the house are predominantly laid to lawn and interspersed with mature trees and established planting, creating a natural frame and affording attractive views in all directions. Beyond, the land is divided into a series of fields suitable for a variety of uses, with hedgerow boundaries and post-and-rail fencing enhancing both privacy and practicality.
A substantial range of outbuildings is positioned conveniently away from the main house, including a cart lodge, stables and two large offices, offering excellent versatility for equestrian, business or leisure purposes, subject to any necessary consents. The layout of the grounds allows for clear separation between the residential and working areas, while still maintaining a cohesive and manageable setting. Altogether, the land and grounds provide an exceptional sense of space and opportunity, all set within the unspoilt Dedham Vale National Landscape.
