7 Bedroom Detached House

Cedar Lodge is a highly regarded and fully operational racing yard extending to approximately 1.22 hectares (three acres), occupying an enviable position on the edge of The Downs. The property offers an excellent combination of residential and equestrian facilities, including a substantial four bedroom family residence, a separate two bedroom annexe, swimming pool, 21 loose boxes, horse walker, and three well maintained paddocks. Its immediate access to The Downs provides exceptional hacking opportunities with very limited road work.

The main residence extends to approximately 3,248 sq ft and has been thoughtfully refurbished to a high standard by the current owners. The first floor comprises three generously proportioned double bedrooms, two of which benefit from ensuite bathrooms, together with a separate family bathroom. On the ground floor are two additional bedrooms, a spacious open plan kitchen, dining and living area designed for modern family living, and a separate study. The property is presented in excellent decorative order throughout.

The layout of the property has been carefully considered to maximise both privacy and practicality, with occupants benefiting from attractive landscaped gardens, a large terrace, swimming pool, and far reaching views over the surrounding paddocks. The self contained annexe provides stylish two bedroom accommodation and is currently occupied by staff and is subject to an equestrian occupancy condition.

Equestrian Facilities

The equestrian facilities are particularly well arranged and include 17 loose boxes, among them two foaling boxes, positioned around the principal courtyard and recently upgraded by the vendors. In addition, there are four further stables adjoining the barn on the opposite side of the property, currently used for the owners’ private horses. The barn is ideally situated adjacent to the horse walker and paddocks and includes a useful mezzanine level for feed and equipment storage. The racing stables are subject to an equestrian occupancy condition.

Paddocks

The grazing land is neatly divided by post and rail fencing, with each paddock benefiting from its own independent water supply, and extends in total to approximately three acres. Planning consent was previously granted for the construction of an arena within the paddocks, although this permission expired in July 2023.

The property is situated close to both the bustling market town of Epsom and Ashtead Village with their selection of shops, restaurants and pubs. Ashtead and Epsom mainline stations offer services to Waterloo and Victoria, and Junction 9 of the M25 provides easy access to both Heathrow and Gatwick international airports. There are many excellent state and independent schools in the area including St. Giles Infant School, City Of London Freemen’s and Epsom College.
