Gateways

An individual barn conversion with a comprehensive range of equestrian facilities including paddocks, stabling and a floodlit riding arena, set on grounds measuring approximately 5.27 acres, gated and approached along a gravel drive and occupying a private and sheltered position.

The Gateways is a single-storey, two/three-bedroom barn conversion with flexible living accommodation. This wonderful home has been designed with high ceilings to offer an abundance of natural light. The country-style kitchen/shaker dining area leads you into the light and airy living room, featuring solid oak flooring and a Scandinavian wood burner. There are double patio doors featured in the kitchen, living room and principal bedroom which open onto the patio area outside and all have views over the paddocks. The accommodation comprises two double bedrooms, an office/bedroom three, a family bathroom and a guest cloakroom. The study leads you directly into a large internal brick-built barn with a spacious walkway, five solid stables, one being a large foaling box, an enclosed tack room, a small open workshop area and utility/boot room. The main yard consists of five wooden stables, including a further large foaling box attached to a large feed room, a tack room, a toilet/washroom and a three-bay open hay barn which can be used for storage or a garage. To the rear of the property is a very well-maintained and fully floodlit 20 x 40 metre sand/rubber arena with arena mirrors down one end. The arena also benefits from external power points. Paddock/security lights are installed adjacent to the training arena leading to the rear paddocks. There is a beautiful enclosed walled garden to the front of the property which has a lovely pagoda for outdoor dining and entertaining. A large concrete area to the side of the property provides ample parking and turning space for large horse lorries and trailers. A big bonus for this property is that there is direct access to miles of bridleways and woods from the rear gate leading to the South Downs. The main access to The Gateways has a brand-new set of solid wood six-foot double gates and is bordered by close board fencing along the main road, keeping the property very secure and private. There are PIR security lights all around the property. There is scope to convert the existing barn to accommodation, subject to the relevant planning permissions.
