The detached house is presented in good condition throughout, its black weatherboarded elevations over red brick echoing the agricultural character of its setting. Beyond the house lies an extensive range of facilities: fourteen stables, two store rooms, foaling stables and a large barn carrying Class Q conversion potential (STPP). Whether taken on as an established equestrian holding or explored for its wider potential, the property presents an unusual opportunity at this level.<br/><br/>At the heart of the ground floor is a generous open-plan kitchen and dining room, laid with terracotta tiles and fitted with cream shaker-style units, timber worktops and a Belfast sink, with an exposed timber post and large windows framing the paddocks beyond. The room offers ample space for a family table and everyday gathering, and flows naturally to a separate utility and a ground-floor cloakroom. Across the hall, the lounge is a comfortable, characterful space centred on a feature brick fireplace with a timber mantel, again finished with terracotta flooring and dual windows that draw in light and views. The layout balances sociable open-plan living with a quieter room to retreat to.<br/><br/>Upstairs, four bedrooms are arranged off the landing, the principal enjoying an en-suite alongside a family bathroom finished in natural stone-effect tiling, with several rooms taking in open field and paddock views. Outside, the grounds extend to approximately nineteen acres of paddocks bordered by post-and-rail fencing, with a paved terrace to the rear of the house and secure gated parking for several vehicles and lorries. The stable ranges and barn sit within the plot, offering scope for equestrian use or, subject to consent, further development. A genuinely versatile holding in a well-regarded village setting, rewarding a closer look in person.<br/><br/><strong>At a Glance</strong><br/><strong>Type:</strong> Detached barn-style house, freehold<br/><strong>Size:</strong> House approximately 1,490 sq ft; grounds approximately 19 acres, with extensive equestrian outbuildings (approximately 6,083 sq ft)<br/><strong>Bedrooms:</strong> 4<br/><strong>Bathrooms:</strong> 2 — family bathroom plus en-suite to principal<br/><strong>Reception Rooms:</strong> Lounge with feature brick fireplace, plus open-plan kitchen/dining room<br/><strong>Kitchen:</strong> Cream shaker-style units, timber worktops, Belfast sink, terracotta tiled floor<br/><strong>Outside:</strong> Approximately 19 acres of paddocks with post-and-rail fencing, paved rear terrace<br/><strong>Parking:</strong> Secure gated parking for several vehicles and lorries<br/><strong>Equestrian:</strong> 14 stables, 2 store rooms, foaling stables and a large barn<br/><strong>Potential:</strong> Class Q barn with conversion potential (STPP); wider equestrian or development scope<br/><strong>Cloakroom:</strong> Ground floor<br/><strong>Station:</strong> Dullingham and Newmarket, with services to Cambridge, London and Ipswich<br/><br/><strong>Agents Notes</strong><br/><strong>Tenure:</strong> Freehold<br/><strong>Access:</strong> A neighbouring private development holds a right of access across part of the land.

Surrounded by open countryside on the edge of the Newmarket area, it offers a genuinely rural setting while remaining well connected to town and city.<br/><br/>At the heart of the village is St Peter's Church, hosting regular services and community events, alongside a village primary school, a village pub and a village hall that serves as a focus for local clubs and gatherings. Newmarket provides the fuller day-to-day offering — supermarkets, independent shops, restaurants, healthcare and both state and independent schooling — while the nearby Devil's Dyke and surrounding bridleways and footpaths give excellent walking, cycling and riding on the doorstep.<br/><br/>Transport links are strong: the A11 and A14 provide direct road access towards Cambridge, Bury St Edmunds and the M11, while railway stations at Dullingham and Newmarket offer services to Cambridge, London and Ipswich.</p>
