This idyllic country estate fulfills every dream of a rural lifestyle offering an established horse-enthusiast's property with open flat land, fenced paddocks and premium equestrian facilities. Rolling over 40 acres of scenic countryside with extensive creek frontage, Roycroft Stables features a comfortable homestead plus a second dwelling, and is ideal for those who demand space, scenery and privacy, but insist on the convenience of having Sydney CBD just an hour's drive away.
An incredible amount of work has been done and this beautiful acreage has so much to offer. Former Olympic equestrian rider Vicki Roycroft has created a horse lover's heaven complete with a purpose-built all-weather sand arena, well-equipped stables complex with attached office, a dam and powered machinery shed. Roycroft competed for Australia at three Olympic Games, has won multiple awards and coached the Olympic showjumping team. Over the past four decades, she has established a successful showjumping, horse riding and equestrian training business on the property.
The main residence is comfortable and bright, with a great family layout that has generous living areas, four bedrooms and a very user-friendly kitchen. The second dwelling offers a great opportunity for guests, paying tenants or extended families. Although both homes are in solid and liveable condition, there is plenty of potential for an upgrade, renovation, or even the chance to build something new to truly take advantage of the stunning surroundings.
Roycroft Stables is perfect for horse enthusiasts, hobby farmers or tree changers looking for a glorious acreage lifestyle. There's something here for everyone, and it's ideal for those who want to live in the countryside and work in the city as it's located just off the M1 motorway, only 60km to Sydney CBD and 20 minutes from amenities in Gosford.
