For anyone with equine interests looking for a superb, characterful detached house with a self-contained annex and equestrian facilities and the potential to develop (subject to planning permissions), this has to be the ultimate home. It nestles 5.99 acres of grounds including paddocks and outbuildings with 10 stables in an ideal location with Epping Forest on your doorstep. The house is surrounded by beautiful views of the rolling countryside and is walking distance from Theydon Bois village where Central Line trains to Liverpool Street take just over half an hour.
A long private tree-lined driveway flanked by Theydon Bois golf course leads to this wonderful home. The rear oak stable door opens into an entrance hall with storage facilities and boiler cupboard. An elegant dual aspect living room with original oak beams, flooring and a large log burner provides a relaxing space and includes French doors to the patio and a delightful outdoor bar.
The large kitchen/breakfast room combines a contemporary farmhouse feel with period features such as original vertical stable beams. There is tiled flooring, an Aga and bespoke units housing various appliances and plenty of space for a table and chairs. French doors open onto the decked terrace with a charming covered dining area and beautiful views over the surrounding fields.
The spacious front hallway houses a cloakroom, a double oak-doored cupboard for storage, and a further stable door to the garden. Upstairs a bathroom and separate shower room serve four bedrooms with far-reaching views, including two large doubles with fitted cupboards.
The annexe is ideal for family members and features a large open plan kitchen/living room, a bathroom, and a double bedroom with fitted cupboards, plus a separate utility room and an outdoor kitchen. Off-street parking for numerous vehicles is available and there is an attractive garden, raised beds, courtyard for outdoor entertaining, a hot tub, outdoor shower and lawns interspersed with trees and shrubs.
In addition to the stables there are storage facilities for tack and animal feed, a manege that requires upgrading, an additional storage barn and a very large barn that was once a functioning indoor riding school, also in need of renovation.
What the Owner says:
This has been a very special family home in so many ways, but it is time for us to downsize. It would be lovely to see a family make it their own and enjoy all the benefits this home has to offer that we have enjoyed over the years.
The location is excellent as we have the exclusive golf club on our doorstep and a stones throw from the village and Epping Forest for wonderful off road riding, cycling and walks. It would be an ideal property for someone owning their own horses, or excellent potential and opportunity for anyone who would like to develop the yard and run a small equestrian business. Even having the annex could provide independent accommodation for a groom or riding instructor.
Theydon Bois is a beautiful village and home with a lovely community feel. An iconic avenue of trees and virtually no streetlights as the residents felt they would detract from the traditional village ambience. The village includes St Mary's church, and Theydon Bois Baptiste church, a well-respected primary school, two pubs, a Tesco express, lovely bakery, a small variety of independent shops and restaurant's as well as a dentist and a doctor's surgery. There is also, a tennis and cricket club plus easy access to the M11 and M25 for London, Cambridge and Stansted.
Additional education facilities are available in the area including Hereward Primary and Debden Park High School, both rated Outstanding by Ofsted, as well as excellent independent schools.
