The heart of Harlequin Stables is the arena and equestrian centre. Professionally built by Hil-Ron Construction in 1994, the 70'X144' covered arena provides a level surface to ride on that is dry in the winter and cool in the summer. Mature pyramid cedars along the south side create a natural windbreak and wisteria shades the spectator deck. In the 13-stall main stable, stall sizes range from 10'X12' to 14'X14', so that there is accommodation for even the largest horse. Three are walk-out stalls that lead into to well drained pipe paddocks. Amenities include wide alleyways, a small kitchen with microwave, fridge, hot water sink, etc. There is also a hot water wash rack, tack room, bedding shed, and feed room. Additional out-buildings include a 2000 bale hay barn with 3 additional stalls and storage, tool shed, and chicken house. There is also an irrigation pond. The asking price includes considerable equipment such as all stall mats, pipe panels, 2008 JD 3005 tractor (about 40 hours), 2006 Milcreek 78 bushel manure spreader, United Power 60 Hz silent generator, and misc. to numerous to mention. Although this property is currently set-up as a turn-key horse operation for boarding and/or breeding, it could easily be adapted to other uses--such as a mixed livestock farm, organic farm, etc. The arena, while a great place to ride, could also become an indoor farmers' market, a winery, or just let your imagination go wild...
