Summary - Banchory, High Street, West Lydford, SOMERTON TA11 7DG
4 bed 2 bath Equestrian Facility
Renovated country house with first-class horse facilities and large private paddocks.
Approx 5.5 acres of equestrian land and paddocks
Set within roughly 5.5 acres, this newly renovated detached home combines contemporary family living with purpose-built equestrian facilities. The open-plan ground floor flows to a terrace and garden overlooking paddocks, while a cosy sitting room with a log burner and a flexible reception room add practical living space. Upstairs are four bedrooms including a principal with en-suite and a modern family bathroom.
The site is arranged for serious equestrian use: a 60m x 20m Olympic-sized arena, two stables, tack room, hot wash bay, multiple barns and a hardstanding lorry park with electric hook-up. Paddocks are served by a central pipe drainage system for year-round grazing and turnout. Broadband is reported fast and the property is offered freehold and chain free.
Notable practical points: the house was fully renovated in recent years but retains an EPC rating of D and uses oil-fired boiler heating (not a community supply). Council tax is above average. The rural, remoter setting suits buyers who prioritise privacy and riding facilities — daily amenities require short drives to nearby towns.
This is a rare combination of comfortable, move-in-ready family accommodation and substantial, well-equipped equestrian land. It will suit riding families or those seeking a countryside lifestyle with immediate equestrian capability, but buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance of outbuildings, arena surfacing and oil-fuel running costs.
