A lovely 50 acre residential farm with unlisted family home, equestrian facilities and various outbuildings.
Description
Barling Green is a charming residential farm, the majority of which is down to pasture together with equestrian facilities, including stables, a tack room, an all-weather menage and various outbuildings.
At the heart of the property, approached via a gated entrance with a drive winding around passing the stable yard, is the detached house, formerly two farm cottages dating from the early 19th century, which have over the years been converted into a family home which sits amidst well established cottage-style gardens with a beautiful beech tree, vegetable garden and a pergola covered by wisteria and a grapevine.
Internally, there is an entrance hall/snug with wood burning stove, two reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room equipped with fitted cupboards, a larder and an oil fired four oven Aga. On the first floor the painted panelled landing leads to four bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms, one being en suite. Stairs continue to the second floor where there is a very good sized attic room with potential and an attic store which currently houses the water tank.
Equestrian Facilities, Barn and Agricultural Land
To the north east of the house and garden lies the stable yard, where there is a stable block built by Scotts of Thrapston, incorporating four stables, three with rear windows and a tack room. Adjacent to this is a substantial triple bay garage. Behind the stables is a useful pole barn and an all-weather school with rubber tyre surface.
All of the land is down to grazing and hedge or fence enclosed. Lot 1 includes three fields, one with a field shelter and a double barn which is not water tight and a pond.
Lots 2 and 3 comprise the remaining land of 7.34 acres and 32.19 acres respectively, lying mainly to the east, south east and west of the farmstead (and a neighbouring field). The fields are all down to grazing and hedge or fence enclosed, several with water connected and Lot 3 with a pond.
Please note Lots 2 and 3 will only be sold with Lot 1 or after it has been sold.
