High Roding — High Roding

Formerly a thriving riding school, Attridges Farm is a wonderfully characterful farmhouse set within about 13 acres, offering a rare blend of charm, space and immense opportunity, and an extensive range of outbuildings including an impressive indoor riding arena. This lifestyle opportunity comprises a substantial Grade II listed farmhouse of around 2,785 sq ft, full of warmth and period character. Beside it sits a detached former annexe that now requires restoration, but with huge potential for a home office, gym or ancillary accommodation, subject to the necessary consents. Beyond this, a more modern cattery building offers the chance to re establish a secondary income stream, subject to licensing, or could be repurposed for a variety of alternative uses. In 2020, a planning application (UTT/20/3393/FUL) was submitted for the demolition of the equestrian centre and associated buildings, and the creation of five dwellings. The pre application feedback was encouraging, and with planning policy continuing to evolve, there may be scope for a range of future possibilities, perhaps a lower density residential scheme, commercial adaptation or enhanced equestrian facilities, all subject to the necessary consents and associated costs. Any development potential remains speculative, and the sale is not subject to planning, but the site certainly offers scope for buyers looking for something with flexibility and long term promise. Attridges Farmhouse is entered via a generously proportioned sitting/dining room, featuring exposed wall and ceiling timbers and a traditional fireplace. This central reception space connects to both the family room and the well-appointed farmhouse kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen provides direct access through to the utility room, which in turn leads out to the large, enclosed and mature rear garden. The ground floor also includes a separate lounge, entrance hall with WC, and additional porch access, offering practical day-to-day living. To one s
