Poulton Down Farm lies in the North Wessex Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the heart of an area very well known for its racing and training yards. Situated on the edge of the North Wessex Downs, the surrounding countryside is renowned for its extensive walking and riding. The vibrant market town of Marlborough only 2 miles away offers further amenities including a number of smaller independent shops, a Waitrose supermarket and an organic farm shop. Excellent sporting facilities including horseracing at Newbury (23 miles).

There is a superb choice of highly regarded schools in the area including Marlborough College, St John’s Marlborough, Dauntsey’s, Downe House, Westonbirt and Bradfield College.

The property which in total extends to about 132 acres, comprises a substantial modern four bedroom farmhouse set in immaculate landscaped gardens with a one bedroom annexe and a detached indoor swimming pool building adjacent. There are extensive modern farm buildings fitted out to high specification equestrian use but suitable also for a wide range of alternative uses. Adjacent to these buildings are a separate two bedroom Lodge which was converted to provide additional accommodation a number of years ago.

The fields nearest the homestead are divided by neat post and rail fencing, all have water and some have field shelters. Those fields further afield are laid to grass which produces hay for the farm. The land rises from the farmhouse and yard up to a high point within a band of woodland providing astounding views over the North Wessex Downs and beyond.

This property has 132.79 acres of land.
