Huntsmoor Cottage is a well-maintained Victorian semi with genuine equestrian appeal: a comfortable three-bedroom home set within about 6.5 acres of fenced pasture, modern yard facilities and direct bridleway access. The house benefits from a recently added oak-framed garden room with a lantern and an air-to-air heat pump (heating and cooling), a wood-burning stove in the sitting room and a complete solar energy system that helps reduce running costs. Gigaclear Superfast Rural Broadband and low crime make the location practical as well as peaceful.
The paddocks and yard are a core strength: an L-shaped stable yard with three stables, tack room, large feed store, barn and pole barn, plus water, lighting and electric in the yard. Well-fenced pastures, multiple taps and field shelters support keeping ponies or horses, and a bridleway from the field gate links to local riding areas. There was planning approval (now lapsed) for a 20 x 40m arena on the schooling paddock, offering scope for reinstatement subject to permissions.
Practical points to note: the house uses oil central heating with a boiler and radiators, and the original solid brick walls are assumed to have no built-in insulation, which could affect summer/winter comfort and future energy costs despite the solar system. There is a single family bathroom (bath and separate shower) for three bedrooms, and council tax sits at the higher Band F. Access is via a shared gravel drive with ample parking but some farm traffic and a public footpath cross the property.
Overall this is a characterful cottage for buyers seeking a manageable home with substantial equestrian land and immediate out‑riding, suitable for owners who value countryside living and are prepared to consider energy efficiency improvements and minor modernisation where desired.
