Homes for horse lovers at Harvard Grange
Summer is one of the busiest times of the year in the British calendar for horse racing, with events such as the Epsom Derby and Royal Ascot seeing thousands of visitors annually. Not only is horse riding a popular spectating sport, but to this day it still remains a favoured recreational sport, with 2015 seeing a total of three million horse riders in Great Britain . Ideal for those with a passion for riding, award-winning developer, Countryside, has created a beautiful selection of traditionally styled homes at its Harvard Grange development, which is local to several horse riding stables and bridle paths in its rural location of Little Chalfont, Buckinghamshire.
Countryside is creating a stylish collection of 10 four to six bedroom homes and 16 two bedroom apartments at Harvard Grange, which is located just less than five miles from Brawlings Farm Riding Centre, Valley Farm and Aescwood Farm Riding School. For those that prefer to ride closer to home, the development is surrounded by many bridle paths that provide scenic routes around the development, with the picturesque countryside as a backdrop. The properties have been designed to fit seamlessly into the country surroundings, featuring Georgian bar windows, gated entrances, double garages and landscaped front gardens.
Andrew Loveday, Sales Director of Countryside comments: “The development is ideal for those that enjoy being outdoors, especially horse riders, as Harvard Grange is within close proximity to some fantastic horse riding schools and facilities. Little Chalfont is such a beautiful village and provides the perfect countryside setting for residents wanting to enjoy a horse ride much closer to home. With summer being one of the busiest times of the year in the horse racing calendar, what better time to invite horse lovers to come and view our beautiful themed show home.”
