A rare opportunity to buy a house with racing stables on a 43-acre Derbyshire estate is up for sales through SDL Auctions in partnership with agents Horton Estates.

Calke Abbey Racing Stables on Heath Lane in South Derbyshire is in the heart of the National Forest and has a starting price of £1.2m in the online auction which ends on 10 September.

The lot includes a four bedroomed detached house and equestrian facilities with stable yard, a 6.5-furlong oval gallop, a horse walker, 22 loose boxes, tack, feed and rug rooms, an additional barn for up to six horses and a 4,400 sq ft industrial unit.

Jason Lee, national sales manager at SDL Auctions, said: “This is a remarkable opportunity to purchase a unique private country residence in need of renovation and attention, within a sizeable estate that provides huge potential for commercial and leisure opportunities.

“The property has beautiful and far-reaching rural views and has easy access to the region’s travel network, with Derby, Nottingham, Leicester and Birmingham all within a commutable distance.”
Beth Shaw, area director at Horton Estates, said: “We are delighted to be working with SDL Auctions to offer this unique individual detached home with large and versatile equestrian facilities for sale.

“Overall, the house and grounds are in need of attention, but there are stunning views over open countryside with established gardens and a private driveway with parking for several vehicles.

“The property is also located in a much-sought after area which is made even more attractive for families attracted by the wide choice of renowned local schools.”
