The property offers nearly 3,000 square feet of family accommodation over three floors, with the reception rooms and five main bedrooms arranged along the southern side of the house, taking full advantage of the elevated position and views over the terraced gardens, park-like grounds and fields beyond. The floor plans give an excellent overview of the full extent of the house. Landfall House is approached via a gated driveway which opens to a parking area lying to the front of the house. Delightful formal gardens and grounds surround the house, very well enclosed by mature trees giving a high degree of privacy. A stone terrace, part covered by a timber pergola, extends around the southern and eastern sides of the property with steps descending to formal areas of lawn and a former croquet lawn. A pathway leads away from the house to the east, though a kitchen garden with greenhouse and brick built tack/feed room, to the stabling. Equestrian Centre Lying away from the house to the east and with the benefit of a separate gated driveway and large parking area, the equestrian centre comprises a Loddon brick built American barn with six large loose boxes and two store rooms, various additional outbuildings, a horse walker and a fully-enclosed Curling polo arena with Martin Collins surface (about 80m x 25m). Further timber stabling is available by separate negotiation. The post and rail fence enclosed paddocks, all with water laid on, lie to the south and east of the house as can be seen on the site plan. Planning Permission Planning permission was granted on 14 July 2014 for the extension of the single storey garage to create new garage space with storage room off, boot room and annexe accommodation over.
