3 bed bungalow for sale

Sandhurst Lane, Sandhurst, Gloucester, Gloucestershire GL2

Occupying a peaceful and private position tucked away on the edge of the village, Oak Tree Farm is a well established equestrian unit comprising a range of versatile barns that include 12 loose boxes, a manege and paddocks, all set over 7.4 level acres of ground.

Set a good distance back from the lane, the driveway is gated as are the yards so making the site very secure.

Presented in very good order, the three bedroom bungalow extends to approximately 1,522 square feet. An open plan kitchen/dining room has a dual aspect and focuses on a fireplace and wood burner. By the back door just off the kitchen, there is a practical boot/utility room and towards the other end of the bungalow there is a study and a superb triple aspect vaulted drawing room with great natural light and a second wood burner. Three double bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the accommodation.

Across the garden is a single storey double garage with flexible store rooms.

The Yard
The yard comprises a range of versatile outbuildings that includes a 4 box purpose built stable block, an all weather turnout paddock, an American style barn with 8 Monarch stables, a wash bay, a secure tack room and feed space. A large Nissan hut makes for great storage while there are two further taller barns suitable for 'yard' turnout, hay/straw and machinery. The manege has lighting, a 'flexi-ride' surface and is fitted with schooling mirrors. Not quite square, it measures approximately 24m x 49m at the wider end and approximately 21m x 45m at the other end.

Agents' Note: The property sits within a Flood Zone whereby the stable yard is affected occasionally by some ground/surface water flooding from a nearby ditch. The bungalow flooded in 2007 which resulted in an insurance claim.
