Secluded period home with canal-side garden and versatile outbuildings.
Over 0.8 acre plot with orchard and formal garden
Ivy Cottage is a rare, characterful four-bedroom detached home set on just over 0.8 acres in a secluded rural hamlet. Thick stone walls, exposed beams and period fireplaces give the house a storybook personality, while a country kitchen with an Aga and a generous master with en-suite deliver everyday comfort for family life.
The plot is a major asset: formal garden, orchard, stables, double garage and workshop, plus direct canal access from the bottom of the garden — ideal for paddling, fishing or waterside walks. Good local primary schools, very low crime and easy road links to Stafford, Lichfield and Rugeley make this a convenient countryside base for families.
Practical points to note: the house is of traditional solid-brick construction (pre-1900) and appears to lack cavity wall insulation, so buyers should allow for upgrading thermal performance. Broadband speeds are limited, and some modernisation may be wanted to suit contemporary living standards. Tenure is freehold, council tax band D and flood risk is low.
For buyers seeking a private, character-filled home with scope to personalise and improve, Ivy Cottage offers substantial land, outbuildings with conversion potential and authentic period charm in a tranquil, well-connected location.
