House For Sale £1,300,000
Occasionally, a truly unusual house is offered to the market.
“Wildacres", set outside the beautiful hamlet of Consall, in the rspb nature park, is a remarkable and individually designed property. The 3369 sq.ft residence was constructed in 1950 by a local industrialist and in recent years, the property has been remodelled to incorporate an “arts and crafts” style throughout, with some hand made, bespoke features commissioned by the current owners. Having been offered to the market only once before, “Wildacres" comes as a rare and unique opportunity. In an elevated position, surrounded by mature gardens and wildlife landscapes, this property takes full advantage of the amazing South and East facing views offered by the Churnett and Consall valleys and beyond.
This pristine property with elegant interiors, is ideally suited to accommodate family lifestyle. Boasting three double bedrooms, a single bedroom, two bathrooms, four reception rooms and a downstairs cloakroom. A first floor snooker and games room adjoins a self-contained annex, (currently utilised as an Airbnb under the name of “The Old Cinema, Consall” )
The mature gardens extend to the some of 3.52 acres or thereabouts and feature a huge variety of plants to encourage wildlife, colourful shrubs, many unusual trees and conifers, a woodland area, 3 ponds and a beautiful sunken garden. There are various outbuildings, including garages, a large cedar greenhouse, a potting shed and a wooden implement store.
Approached via a gated private drive with access to five garages, the driveway has ample off road parking for many vehicles. The impressive main entrance hall has a staircase leading to the first floor, and offers access to the ground floor reception rooms, including an elegant drawing room, dining room, sitting room, office and deluxe breakfast kitchen with integrated appliances, all enjoying magnificent views of the beautiful gardens and neighbouring countryside. A utility, pantry, porch/boot room, double garage, and cloak room /wc complete the ground floor.
The first floor landing feeds into 3 double bedrooms, one single bedroom and two “Jack and Jill” en suite bathrooms. The main bedroom also has the added benefit of a walk in wardrobe and two full height sliding doors opening onto the feature glass balcony, overlooking the magnificent valley view.
The Annex, formerly a private cinema, is now utilised as a successful Airbnb, having a living room, double bedroom, kitchen and bathroom with its own entrance porch.
The property benefits from solar panels on the South/East roof and benefits from a generous feed-in tariff. The central heating is by lpg.
Throughout both levels, large windows offer outstanding views, and allow in tremendous levels of natural light. As the property is centrally located, it boasts exceptional gardens, woodlands, grassland to the front, rear and side and has frequently been utilised for many charity events and art exhibitions, with afternoon teas served on the lawns.
