The property further benefits from a small arboretum, and facilities for keeping animals such as pigs and chickens. Throughout the garden, the current owners have taken care to reuse original equipment from the old cottage to landscape the garden and retain that original charm, such as the original bricks creating a feeling of authenticity and tranquillity in the space.

Outbuildings

There are multiple outbuildings located to the rear of the property that are versatile and are currently used for a variety of purposes including an outdoor bar/den, a garden store and dog kennelling. There is another metal built workshop/garage of which is approximately 30ft x 40ft. The outbuildings benefit from electricity and internet access.

The Barn

One of the fabulous outbuildings has been turned into an amazing den which is equally perfect for revelry of entertaining family and friends or even a peaceful sanctuary to savour a glass of wine or cup of tea and relax and let the stresses of life drift away in your very own rural retreat; with the double doors open it gives you a beautiful and tranquil vista of the far-reaching garden and pergola beyond. This hugely versatile building was finished off utilising many reclaimed materials giving it that rustic feel as if it had been here for a lifetime. This area would also be ripe for conversion into an annexe or similar. We have been informed by the vendors that no planning permission would be needed as it is an existing agricultural building, though we would recommend confirming this and looking into change of use with Staffordshire Borough Council were you to decide to undertake any extensive renovations to the outbuildings.

Driveway

A large stone driveway sweeping up the side of the property offers amble off-road parking. The driveway benefits from cold water tap and electric car charger.
