A Rare Equestrian Opportunity on Over Two Acres in a Prestigious Private Road

Positioned within one of the area's most sought-after private roads and backing directly onto open countryside, this exceptional equestrian home offers the increasingly rare opportunity to combine country living with first-class equestrian facilities, all within easy reach of Selsdon, Sanderstead and South Croydon.

Built in 1995 for the current owners and lovingly maintained ever since, the property occupies a secluded plot of over two acres, providing a unique lifestyle for horse owners, hobby farmers, or those seeking a small private livery venture from home.

Approached via a private gated driveway, the property enjoys excellent parking facilities with ample space for horseboxes, trailers and multiple vehicles, together with potential to construct a detached double garage subject to any necessary consents. The established gardens have been thoughtfully designed to create a tranquil outdoor space, featuring a covered alfresco entertaining area, attractive raised fish pond, expansive lawns and mature boundaries that provide a wonderful sense of privacy.

For those with equestrian interests, the grounds are a true standout feature. Situated to the rear are two substantial paddocks extending to approximately two acres, together with a well-equipped stable block comprising two stables, a covered hay store and tack room. Additional outbuildings include a large aviary and chicken enclosure, while convenient service access from the driveway ensures excellent practicality for the day to day management of horses and livestock.

The main residence offers nearly 2,000 sq ft of well proportioned accommodation, including three generous reception rooms and three/four bedrooms, creating an ideal family home. Complementing the principal house is an impressive L-shaped guest lodge with adjoining home office and storage areas. Extending to over 1,250 sq ft, this versatile space presents exciting possibilities for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, Airbnb income, a home-based business, private gym, therapy rooms or equestrian-related enterprise.

One of the property's greatest attractions is its location. Farleigh Common is quite literally on the doorstep, providing miles of scenic hacking routes and open countryside, a feature that is becoming increasingly difficult to find so close to London. Despite its rural feel, the property remains conveniently located for a wide range of amenities, excellent transport links and highly regarded schools, including Croydon High School and John Ruskin College.

Properties offering this combination of substantial residential accommodation, private equestrian facilities, ancillary accommodation and direct access to riding country are exceptionally rare in this location. Whether you are seeking a family home with paddocks and stables, a lifestyle change with space for animals, or the opportunity to operate a small livery or equestrian business, this remarkable property presents a truly unique opportunity.
