Description

Byerley Farm, this iconic equestrian property is a rare offering in Aiken’s Historic Horse District and the only horse farm sharing a fence line with Bruce’s Field, home of Aiken’s premier Grand Prix and hunter/jumper competitions. Often referred to as “Aiken’s Grand Prix Village Farm,” this offering rivals Wellington’s renowned equestrian enclave. Rich in racing history, the property was home to Hall of Fame trainer Mack Miller, and the grounds feature the original camellia planted in honor of Sea Hero, owned by Paul Mellon and winner of the Kentucky Derby. Originally part of land purchased from the Whitney family for polo fields, the farm was developed by Charles Engelhard as Cragwood Stables, later leased by Paul Mellon for Rokeby Stables, operated for many years as Mack Miller Training, owned in 2000 by Mr. and Mrs. Robert McNair of Stonerside Farm, sold in 2008 in connection with the Houston Texans, later owned by Darley under Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, and restored by the current owner after purchase in 2022. The combined offering totals approximately 8.25 acres, including 3.01 acres within the Historic Horse District and an additional 5.24 acres zoned RD (Residential Development). The primary parcel includes an income-producing 42-stall training barn situated on 3.01 acres, with two paddocks and a 1144 soft. two-bedroom guest cottage, ideal for hunter/jumper, dressage, eventing, or Thoroughbred operations. The second parcel offers a 2456 soft. brick residence with six paddocks and shares the fence line with Bruce’s Field, providing exceptional flexibility for owner occupancy, staff housing, or future development. Located just minutes from the Aiken Polo Grounds, Aiken Training Track, and the riding trails of Hitchcock Woods, this property combines historic significance, income production, residential living, and one of the most sought-after locations in Aiken’s equestrian community. Multiple purchase options are available: • Historic Barn • 3.01 acres with 42-stall barn, 2 paddocks & 2-bedroom guest cottage – $2,575,000 • 5.24 acres (RD zoning) with brick residence & 6 paddocks – $3,850,000 • Entire combined 8.25-acre – $5,575,000 A truly unique opportunity in the heart of Aiken’s equestrian corridor.
