Hidden away in the peaceful hamlet of Hamperden End, this enchanting 600-year-old, 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom character home exudes timeless elegance, rural charm, and superb equestrian facilities set within idyllic countryside surroundings.

As you approach the property, you're greeted by a striking frontage with characterful windows, a traditional tiled roof, and a spacious in-and-out pebble driveway framed by mature trees, ensuring privacy. The expansive driveway leads to a large garage and provides access to three lawned areas, one discreetly housing the Klargester. From here, scenic views stretch over adjacent fields bordered by natural screening.

For the equestrian enthusiast, the property offers an outstanding array of facilities. A professionally constructed arena provides the perfect space for training, schooling, and leisure riding, accompanied by a spacious sand turnout area ideal for year-round use. Complementing these amenities are seven high-quality stables, each thoughtfully designed for comfort and practicality, alongside a spacious tack room and convenient hay barn—creating a self-contained equestrian haven.

Stepping inside, the entrance hall immediately impresses with original beams, Italian Mandarin stone tiles, and period radiators, setting the tone for the home's authentic charm. To one side lies a cosy living room featuring original oak plank flooring, a captivating inglenook fireplace with a log burner, and charming ceiling beams. Large picture windows illuminate the space and overlook the lush gardens.

Opposite is the heart of the home—a striking open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area. A conveniently located office and storage cupboard lead through to the impressive kitchen space, illuminated by skylights and floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors offering seamless garden access. Bespoke handcrafted black stone cabinetry, a quartz island, coffee station, and high-end appliances—including a Wolf 6-ring gas hob, Sub-Zero fridge freezer, and Wolf oven—elevate this room into a culinary paradise. The space seamlessly integrates dining and lounging areas, complemented by a recessed TV unit, bespoke shelving, and a bright day room with corner glass aspects and additional skylights.

Practicalities are well catered for with an adjoining utility room featuring a washing machine, tumble dryer, and double butler sink, alongside a boot room, server room (housing the home's integrated sound system), and boiler room. Completing the ground floor is a stylish WC, discretely accessed from the hallway.

Upstairs, the elegant landing showcases more charming beams and historic brickwork. Each of the five spacious bedrooms is beautifully appointed. The principal suite offers luxury with a generous bedroom, walk-in wardrobe with electric underfloor heating, and a sumptuous en-suite bathroom with dual sinks, bath, shower, and idyllic garden and pool views through chapel-style windows. Additional highlights include bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, a hidden en-suite accessed through mirrored doors, and versatile spaces ideal for playrooms or guest accommodation.

The meticulously landscaped garden features a large patio area ideal for entertaining, complemented by a cedar-clad outdoor kitchen and a heated swimming pool complete with an electric cover. Steps lead up to a versatile gym within the summerhouse, overlooking extensive lawns which blend naturally into the dedicated equestrian areas.

Blending historical elegance with modern luxury, the home includes a Sonos surround sound system extending through the house, garden, and pool area, underfloor heating, and electric blinds in the orangery, creating a harmonious balance between heritage, comfort, and practicality.
