1 to 4 Polo Mews & The Bothy: Lying to west of Green Acres and approached via a spur from the main drive are seven dwellings which were converted from existing buildings to create a residential hamlet within the boundary of Home Farm. These seven properties are all currently let on Assured Shorthold Tenancy basis, providing a consistent rental income (schedule available on request).
Originally the polo stables, 1 - 4 Polo Mews comprises four semi-detached mews houses arranged around a courtyard. There are three two bedroom houses and a one bedroom house, all with allocated parking spaces.
The Bothy is believed to date from 1870 and originally provided staff accommodation for Foxbury Estate. The Bothy has been converted into three outstanding dwellings: three bedroom Bothy House, two bedroom Bothy Cottage and two bedroom Bothy Flat. All have parking, gardens and garaging (under construction). The floorplans give an excellent overview of the layout of these properties.
