Substantial grounds and conversion potential with optional paddock land available.
Detached five-bedroom Victorian farmhouse, 2,300 sq ft over three floors
A substantial detached five-bedroom Victorian farmhouse set in just under 1 acre of mature grounds with far-reaching countryside views. The house offers 2,300 sq ft over three floors and includes generous reception rooms, a farmhouse kitchen, and an attached two-storey storeroom that could be incorporated into the main accommodation. The property is chain free and well suited to buyers seeking a large family home or a conversion project.
A range of barns and outbuildings—including a large storage barn and a garage linked to a two-storey barn—provide clear scope for conversion or redevelopment (subject to planning permission). There is an option to buy an additional 3.42 acres (Lot 2) ideal for smallholding or equestrian use. The setting in Marchington Woodlands offers privacy and easy access to Uttoxeter and the A50.
Important practical points: the house requires full renovation, has an EPC rating of F, and uses oil-fired central heating with a private septic tank drainage system. Broadband speeds are very slow (estimated highest 13 Mbps). There is no existing planning permission for conversions; any development would need consents. Council Tax is in a higher band (East Staffordshire band F).
This property will most appeal to buyers looking for a substantial project with scope to create a bespoke family home or to investors seeking barn conversion potential. The combination of large grounds, multiple outbuildings and additional purchasable paddock land creates flexibility, but expect significant renovation costs and planning work before conversion or modernisation can proceed.
