Within almost 40 acres of grass and woodland, through which it is approached, this fabulous property has tremendous views and is a highly versatile home from which to live and work.
Description
A deceptively spacious house centrally positioned in an elevated site within almost 40 acres of grass and woodland, through which it is approached, Chater Valley Farm has tremendous views and is a highly versatile home from which to live and work.
Constructed in around 1998, and formerly called Fox Covert Farm, the house has been enhanced and reconfigured by the current owners, with a wonderfully convivial accommodation layout.
Rural, yet within ten miles of the area’s three principal market towns, this is an idyllic haven to visit. Having moved from London, the current owners run a retreat and educational therapy business ( from the property. There is an equine and agricultural tie, requiring the owner to keep horses or farm animals in order to comply. The current owners have some Falabella horses, pigs and a small herd of miniature Herefords.
Accommodation
This is a house for entertaining. The glazed garden room has commanding views over the property’s approach, and opens into an impressive and vaulted engineered oak floored sitting room.
Double doors open into the under floor heated dining kitchen, fitted with a bespoke suite by Nathaniel Oliver of Oakham, with integrated ovens and fitted appliances, with a utility/boot room alongside.
The four bedrooms are all generous doubles. Bedroom two, with its adjoining family shower room and a study (which could be a fifth single bedroom) completes the ground floor accommodation, whilst the spacious first floor galleried landing links the principal bedroom, with balcony, and the remaining two double bedrooms, served by a well-appointed under-floor heated bathroom.
Outside
A sweeping driveway leads through the property’s grass fields, past its lakes and between its Norway spruce and mixed deciduous woodland fringes, rising gently to the house, stable yard and steel portal framed buildings, from its entrance gates off Pilton Lane. A fenced and hedged public footpath crosses between two fields in an east-west direction to the south of the house and yard. An inherited overage clause also precludes the non-agricultural development of the land to the south of the house.
Buildings
There are a number of ancillary buildings, which offer flexible commercial uses.
The former triple garage block has been converted into a classroom, with an adjoining kitchen and cloakroom, linked to the retreat business. It was also, for a time, a farm shop.
The stable yard, to the east of the house, has stabling for two horses and two ponies, with tack facilities.
There are three workshop and implement buildings to the south and west of the house. The principal 100’ five-bay SPF building has frost proof heated drinkers and would readily adapt for an equine American Barn. It also incorporates an office, kitchenette and board room suite at its western end.
Enacted planning (ref 2016/0099/FUL) permits the erection of a log cabin, near the property’s equine ring and timber tepee platform in the woodland to the west of the house.
Agricultural or Equestrian Tie
The occupation of the house under planning consent FUL/2009/0072/NH, is limited to a person mainly working in the locality in agriculture or forestry, or in the livery or other related equestrian business, on the holding.
General Information
Services:
Mains water and electricity. Private drainage. 3-phase electricity. Photovoltaic solar panels (with feed-in tariff). Oil fired central heating.
Location
The Chater Valley is an attractive part of rolling rural Rutland, between the market towns of Uppingham and Oakham.
This property is between the villages of Wing and Pilton, two and a half miles south of Rutland Water's Sailing Club at Edith Weston.
Uppingham (five miles) and Oakham (six miles) are both well serviced towns, each with renowned schools. Oakham also has rail services to Leicester, Stamford, Peterborough and Cambridge. The Georgian town of Stamford is 10 miles east.
Rutland Water is a water-based playground with sailing and fishing clubs, along with picturesque walks and cycle routes.
Indeed, the area’s rural lanes offer fabulous cycling and link to bridleways for riding. There is a choice of golf courses nearby, including Rutland Water and Luffenham Heath golf clubs, within five miles of the property.
