Rushcombe Farm Cottage is a beautifully balanced equestrian home, combining the charm of a period property with the practicality and space required for modern family living. Having been in the same ownership for almost 30 years, the cottage has been sympathetically extended and thoughtfully arranged to create a warm, inviting and highly versatile interior.
The property is approached via a CONSERVATORY entrance with double doors, a light-filled space that perfectly bridges the outside and in, with a door opening directly into the KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM. This welcoming heart of the home is ideal for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring solid worktops, a central island, generous storage and space for a family dining table. A traditional gas Stanley Brandon Range provides both warmth and character, complemented by a Belling electric oven and gas hob. There is a double sink also space for a large fridge freezer, an under-counter dishwasher.
From the KITCHEN, a door leads into the SITTING ROOM, creating an easy, sociable flow between the main living spaces. The SITTING ROOM is full of charm, with exposed beams and a wood-burning stove forming a cosy focal point, with double doors opening back into the conservatory, ideal after a day spent outdoors or with horses.
A separate DINING ROOM provides a more formal entertaining space, complete with an open fireplace. The STUDY offers an excellent work from home environment, featuring a brick fireplace with wood burner, adding both warmth and character. From both the STUDY and the UTILITY ROOM there are doors leading to the rear and side garden.
The UTILITY ROOM, with W.C., provides further practicality, offering fitted cupboards with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, ideal for everyday family life or returning from the yard.
Upstairs, there are four well-proportioned double BEDROOMS, all with fitted storage. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM benefits from an EN-SUITE SHOWER ROOM, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a spacious FAMILY BATHROOM with both bath and separate shower.
Throughout, the cottage retains a wealth of character features, including cob walls, exposed timbers and fireplaces, all of which enhance its unique charm.
Outside
The grounds extend to approximately 3.19 acres and are a standout feature of the property, offering a rare combination of privacy, practicality and lifestyle appeal.
The cottage is surrounded by a mature garden, mainly laid to lawn and enclosed by established hedging and trees, creating a peaceful and private setting. A gravel driveway, accessed via five-bar gates, provides extensive parking and turning space, easily accommodating multiple vehicles, trailers and horseboxes.
Beyond the immediate garden, the land opens into well-arranged paddocks, providing excellent grazing and flexibility for a variety of uses. The layout has been carefully designed to balance convenience with clear separation between domestic and equestrian areas.
For equestrian buyers, the facilities are particularly appealing, including six STABLES, a TACK ROOM and a dedicated FEED ROOM. The all-weather MENAGE allows for year-round schooling, making this an ideal setup for those wishing to keep and exercise horses at home.
