WILLOWDOWN FARM

Willowdown House is an extensive detached family home, which enjoys a wonderful setting, in the heart of its own land with far reaching views across the garden, paddocks, woodland and the surrounding countryside. The house extends to over 3700 sq. ft. and is very well proportioned with generous reception space and provides ideal accommodation for a family home.

A large and welcoming reception hall provides a focal point to the house, with access to all the principal rooms. This includes a spacious, triple aspect sitting room with feature fireplace and separate dining room. There is also a study off the reception hall, leading through into the garden room. This is a magnificent space with a mezzanine floor and wonderful views across the land and countryside beyond. Finally, there is a large kitchen/breakfast room fitted with a range of units, large walk-in pantry and a breakfast area which features a fireplace with fitted log burner. Beyond the kitchen is a utility room and a separate cloakroom with shower.

The bedroom accommodation is currently arranged with a principal bedroom with en suite bathroom and separate shower and a further double bedroom and family bathroom. There is a third bedroom which is currently being used as a dressing room.

OUTSIDE
The property is approached along a tree lined driveway leading up to the parking area in front of the house and the two bay garage with a large studio above. To the front of the house is a terrace with an ornate fishpond. The main gardens are stunning and wrap around the house. They are laid to lawn with a wildflower mix surrounding a pond at the top of the garden, with a charming pond house.

To the south-western side of the house is the terrace with brick-built barbecue and chimney for wood fires, ideal for outdoor entertaining. There is a detached cabin, which provides a kitchen/living room, two bedrooms and a shower room.

EQUESTRIAN FACILITIES
Willowdown Farm enjoys impressive equestrian facilities and has been used as a BHA approved livery yard. It would also be ideal for anyone looking for a very well equipped, private yard. The stabling is set within a large barn below the house and there is a further useful steel framed building set within the woodland close by. There are currently 16 loose boxes with space for more if required. Set away from the farm buildings lies a substantial, well drained, floodlit mange of 50m x 25m.

LAND
The land at Willowdown Farm extends to approximately 79.3 acres (32.1 hectares) in total and is divided into pasture and an attractive block of woodland. Willowdown Farm was originally a cattle farm and has been extensively modified into its current form as a property with superb equestrian facilities. The land has also been managed to create numerous wildlife habitats, with schemes such as woodland replanting.

Much of the pasture has either post and rail or stock fencing with water supplies. The woodland, which lies behind the house, is predominantly beech and provides a haven for numerous wildlife
including deer and brown hares. There are numerous paths within the woodland and it would be very easy to create a wonderful cross country course within the woodland and pasture.

Access points include the main tree lined drive, as well as another access on the western boundary. This could be very useful for various farm and livestock movements.GENERAL REMARKS AND STIPULATIONS
