Poole Street, Great Yeldham, CO9

A unique opportunity to acquire a well-known equestrian centre, situated close to the Suffolk border on the periphery of a well-served and popular village, and offering extensive facilities to include stables, tack rooms, storage barns, paddocks and a superb single storey barn conversion.

The Cart Lodge is a particularly attractive building which was converted from a former agricultural building approximately six years ago, using the latest technology throughout that was available at the time. The property was constructed to a high specification and has underfloor heating throughout, solid oak doors and part vaulted ceilings. It enjoys a superb setting with open field views and is adjacent to extensive equestrian facilities.

A solid oak door flanked by glazed panels is set within a protruding porch with a lead canopy roof, and opens to the inviting reception hall which has solid oak flooring, a large coat cupboard and doors off to the reception rooms. The sitting room is particularly impressive with a fully vaulted ceiling, oak flooring and French doors opening to a terrace. There is an attractive stone fireplace which provides a focal point which has an inset 'Barabas' fire. The kitchen/breakfast room forms the heart of the house and has a dual aspect and French doors to the rear accessing the terrace and attractive porcelain tiles. It is extensively fitted with a range of flush floor and wall mounted units with integral appliances to include a dishwasher, fridge and Rangemaster cooker with an extractor hood. An oak door accesses the utility room which is fitted with matching wall units and has plumbing for a washing machine and a door to the rear.

The inner hall has a part vaulted ceiling and leads to the bedrooms and bathroom. The principal bedroom has a fully vaulted ceiling and wood effect flooring, and a full range of built in wardrobes with sliding doors. The en-suite is especially impressive with a large walk-in shower, vanity unit, and a matching wc. The second bedroom has a part vaulted ceiling and views over the grounds, and is adjacent to the family bathroom. This has a tiled floor, ovel ended bath with a shower above, vanity unit and matching wc.

The house is situated on the southerly side of the property and benefits from a south and west facing garden which has wonderful views over the paddocks. There is an extensive entertaining terrace to the rear of the property which is flanked by dwarf red brick walls, and there is a retractable sun blind.

The property is approached via electric gates opening to an extensive drive which accesses the stable blocks and various other outbuildings, and in turn leading to the house. There are numerous paddocks which are divided by post and rail and electric fencing. They are fundamentally split into three blocks, one of which measures approximately 10.75 acres, another at 5.85 acres and the third 1.87 acres.

There is a large detached timber frame barn which measures 21.85 by 5.65 metres. It is currently subdivided into four sections but could readily be changed to accommodate different uses. The principal stable block forms a courtyard to the north of the house and has two holding pens and three entrances. There are eight stables with four tack rooms in this formation. There is a covered yard with four stables and two tack rooms and a further stable and tack room with a holding pen, adjacent to which is a useful red brick storage barn with a roller shutter door. To the north of this is a further block of three stables and tack rooms, all of which have holding pens. There is a floodlit 40 x 20 metre silica sand and rubber manege which has drainage, and a large holding pen for muck. The paddocks all have water supplies. There is a wide walkway allowing access to the yard from the paddocks on the north east. There are extensive areas of hard standing and parking throughout the property.

In all about 20.50 acres (sts), with approximately 18.50 acres of paddock (sts).
