House For Sale £650,000
Located along a picturesque country lane with no through traffic and approximately 2 miles to the southwest of Stafford and approached from the A518, a unique opportunity to purchase a home of character and style that sides onto the private wooded grounds of Berry Ring, an Iron Age hillfort. Ideal for purchasers seeking the country lifestyle but with all modern conveniences and a non-isolated position.
The front main entrance to the cottage is through a part glazed porch that leads you into a characterful reception hall with oak part glazed door, timber finished floor, front aspect window and access in turn to a two piece fitted guest cloakroom with tiled floor and understairs cloaks cupboard.
Leading off the hall is a charming dining room with beamed ceiling, two front facing windows, timber finished floor, wall lights and access in turn to a generous sized sitting room with windows on three sides all enjoying garden and country views, a focal point fireplace surround and facility for an open fire (would need to be tested) and beamed ceiling.
Patio doors lead from the sitting room into a most attractive conservatory with floor to ceiling glazing to take full advantage of the garden views. Within the conservatory there is a modern tiled floor and direct garden access.
Positioned at the opposite end of the cottage is a family sized dining kitchen with a bespoke range of paint finished units, contrasting worktops and splashback tiling, inset Astracast double bowl sink with disposal unit, built in double oven, electric hob, extractor hood and all enjoying further views of the garden and countryside beyond.
Leading off the kitchen is a large garden room/utility that has uPVC double glazed garden facing windows and doors, polycarbonate roof, a range of base units and worktops, ceramic sink, appliance spaces for a washing machine, fridge freezer and dishwasher. There is also ample space for a dining table and chairs.
On the first floor, a traditional cottage landing gives access to the four bedrooms and family shower room. The master bedroom is a further generously proportioned room with triple aspect windows to take advantage of the garden and country views, a range of mirror fronted wardrobes and a three piece fitted en suite area that includes a quadrant shower, low level WC and wash hand basin/vanity unit.
Bedroom two would make a perfect guest double room as it also has a full width range of built in wardrobes and dressing table and access to its own en suite bathroom with a white three piece suite and partial tiling.
Bedrooms three and four both enjoy a front facing aspect and outstanding views and would be ideal for children's bedrooms.
The family shower room has a grey and chrome suite together with partial tiling, a rear aspect window and boiler cupboard housing the Worcester LPG boiler.
Outside, attached double garage with two up and over doors, rear personal door, electric, light and power points.
Additional timber built garage/store located at the top left hand side of the garden, 4.9m x 3.5m (no power supply).
Driveway parking in front of and to the side of the main garages and additional parking in front of the timber garage/store.
The cottage gardens to this property have been lovingly developed and maintained by the vendors to offer a pleasing blend of lawns, shrubbery and perennial borders, seating areas and rockeries, a productive kitchen garden and mainly hedged boundaries, all enjoying a high degree of privacy and country charm.
Agents notes:
1. In 2021, insurance funded repairs were made to a limited section of the rear of the property where tree routes had caused clay shrinkage. The offending trees were removed. A purchaser may wish to seek and apply for continued insurance cover with the current insurer.
2. The owner of the immediate adjoining woodland has a right of way to a limited area of the garden by the timber garage/store, in order to remove felled trees and vegetation, if required.
