The equestrian facilities include Monarch stables for four horses, including a large stallion box.

There is also a Martin Collins manège, measuring 20x60m with mirrors, plus a tack room, feed room, wash bay and hacking routes to surrounding villages and the Ridgeway.

Originally used as pony stabling, a 4,000 square foot barn offers space for equestrian use, storage or conversion.

In total, Sunwillow Farm sits in 11 acres, with a tree-lined drive and paddocks.

Sun Willow Farm is a 5,200 square foot, five-bedroom family home, which is extremely energy efficient with ground source heating and an EPC rating of B.

The extensive renovations undertaken by the current owners have created a home ideal for families and entertaining. The kitchen and sunroom are the hub of the house, forming a large open space with sliding doors opening onto the garden. The kitchen has built-in appliances including a wine fridge, coffee machine and sit-up island.

The adjoining dining room opens through bifold doors onto a BBQ patio with a pergola and views of the garden. With underfloor heating powered by ground source heating, this area of the house stays warm all-year round, even with the doors open.

The sitting room has a wood burning stove and leads to the dual aspect music room. Additionally, there is a home cinema/games room (currently used as a gym), a laundry room, study and a hallway with a split staircase leading to the first floor.

The west wing houses bedrooms three, four and five, which are all doubles, plus a family bathroom.

With bi-fold doors onto the garden, the pool house features a heated swimming pool, changing room, shower and sports area. Powered by ground source heating, the pool is energy efficient.
