3 bedroom equestrian facility for sale

A period cottage with equestrian facilities set in over 41 acres of land divided into nine paddocks with stables and outhouses, a garden and off street driveway parking, on a no through road in a rural village surrounded by open countryside. The historic cottage, which has views over and is part of the landscape behind it, is a third of a larger 1680s house, once home to the author D.H. Lawrence. On a single track no through road, 41 acres of unspoilt land fan out behind the cottage and are surrounded by open farmland. The listed cottage (no. 1162868) has a checker brick façade with sash windows under a later, 19th-century gambrel roof with dormer windows on the second storey. An original brick cellar runs beneath the house with three floors of accommodation above with brace and latch cottage doors, exposed original timbers and open, period fireplaces, the height of the rooms revealing it was once part of a larger house. While the original building has been respected, there is a newly refitted bathroom and a contemporary conservatory.
