Detached house for sale in Portsmouth Road, Fishers Pond SO50

This exquisite 3-bedroom barn conversion has been meticulously transformed into a stylish and comfortable residence, offering well-proportioned accommodation combining high ceilings with an abundance of natural light.

Inside, the entrance hall leads to a double aspect kitchen/dining room with country style units and Rangemaster cooker and an adjoining sitting room featuring solid oak flooring and a Scandinavian wood burning stove. Both rooms form the hub of the home and open directly out onto a newly created veranda offering views across the grounds.

The remaining accommodation comprises a principal bedroom overlooking the front aspect, a guest bedroom opening onto the veranda, an office/bedroom three, a family bathroom and a cloakroom. The third bedroom/office leads you directly into a large internal brick-built barn comprising a spacious walkway, five solid stables (one being a large foaling box), an enclosed tack room, an open workshop area and utility/boot room.

Outside

The main access from the road is through a brand-new set of solid wood six-foot double gates and a secondary set of gates, keeping the property very secure and private. These gates open onto a large yard offering off road parking for cars and horse lorries as well as ample turning for large vehicles. Set in front of the yard is a triple car/tractor port, which can also be used for hay storage.

Set across the main yard, opposite the property and adjoining barn is a new constructed outbuilding comprising a stable, feed store, tack room and a small kitchenette area/WC. A separate block of four stables with through windows sits at the far side of the main yard, set behind which, is a well-maintained and fully floodlit 20 x 40 metre sand/rubber manege with arena mirrors down one end. The manege also benefits from external power points, with paddock/security lights installed adjacent to the training arena.

A charming, walled front garden offers a pleasant space for relaxation, with ambient lighting and a recently built gazebo with electrical sockets for a hot tub if desired. This is complemented by the charming rear veranda terrace with newly laid Indian Stone paving and a small orchard of fruit trees.
