A detached four bedroom family home with a good range of equestrian facilities, set in just over 7.5 acres, with ample vehicle parking and good accessibility.
The property offers a range of equestrian facilities and in the past has been utilised as a riding school, having ten stables, a round pen, manège, hay barn, various stores, office, tack and feed rooms. The property is situated on a private lane and has formal gardens to the front, side and rear of the residence, as well as parking for multiple vehicles, including space for several horse boxes, trailers, lorries or caravans.
The services and amenities of Spilsby are close by, with the larger towns of Horncastle, Boston and Skegness within easy access via car. The property is well placed in the heart of Lincolnshire, being on the periphery of the Wolds. The vendors advise there is good hacking from the property.
The property is now offered for sale due to a downsize and relocation, having provided a family home for the vendors, their horses, dogs and cats for over 20 years.
