"A highly individual stone built country home with extensive equestrian facilities, woodland and lake set within approximately 4.3 acres near Oakham."
The Property
Dairy Farm Stables occupies a discreet position within Barleythorpe, combining a private country setting with particularly convenient access to Oakham. The house is predominantly stone built and arranged largely across a single storey, providing approximately 3,677 sq ft of flexible accommodation alongside a substantial collection of ancillary buildings.
Character runs throughout the interior, with vaulted ceilings, exposed timbers and architectural detailing sitting alongside generously proportioned living spaces.
The formal entrance leads into an arrangement of reception rooms designed to provide both larger entertaining spaces and more informal family areas. The principal drawing room is complemented by a separate sitting room and snug, giving a choice of spaces for everyday living.
At the heart of the house is a substantial hand built kitchen and breakfast room. An Aga forms an important feature of the kitchen, while there is generous space for informal dining.
A separate dining room provides a more formal setting for entertaining, while the games and entertainment room offers another particularly flexible area. This could continue as a leisure space, work as a substantial home office or potentially form part of independent annexe accommodation. The games room benefits from air conditioning, with further air conditioning installed within the sitting room and dining room.
The bedroom accommodation comprises five bedrooms and five bathrooms, providing considerable flexibility for family members and guests.
The combination of largely single storey accommodation, generous reception rooms and extensive buildings outside makes Dairy Farm Stables particularly adaptable for a range of family, leisure and equestrian uses. The property is offered with no onward chain.
Externally
The house sits within approximately 4.3 acres, with the grounds providing a particularly comprehensive setup for equestrian use.
Well fenced paddocks are accompanied by a dedicated ménage, extensive stabling and an American style barn. The paddocks also benefit from direct access onto some of the surrounding bridleways, creating an especially useful arrangement for keeping and exercising horses from home.
Beyond the equestrian areas, the grounds include an established woodland area and an attractive lake, adding a more informal landscape to the property.
A substantial collection of ancillary buildings provides further practical space, including carports, workshop accommodation, stores and a gym.
Private gated driveway parking is provided and the property also has an electric vehicle charging point.
