A five-bedroom period home set on a generous corner plot in the peaceful village of Lower Leigh. Sherratt House blends original 16th-century beams and mullion windows with practical family spaces: a large kitchen/dining room with underfloor heating, multiple reception rooms and a private, well-treed garden accessed from French doors. The property is freehold and sits in a very low-crime area with good nearby schools and walking routes through Staffordshire countryside.
The house retains strong character — exposed beams, brick fireplace with a wood burner and a rustic snug with a historic bar area — offering immediate charm and comfortable family living. Practical points include a detached double garage, electric gated driveway parking for several cars, double glazing and oil-fired boiler and radiators. There is no flood risk and broadband speeds are reported as fast.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the property dates from before 1900 with solid brick walls and internal insulation, and some external elements (roof, joinery) have no recorded recent renewal dates. The current layout provides two bathrooms for five bedrooms and some rooms are arranged over three storeys, which may suit family use but could require adaptation. Heating is oil-fired (not on a community supply), which has higher running costs than mains gas.
This home will particularly suit families seeking a character-filled residence with garden space and scope for sympathetic updating. It also has potential for modest improvement or reconfiguration, subject to planning, rather than a full structural rebuild. Viewings will be most useful for buyers who value period detail, privacy and village life but are comfortable managing older-house maintenance and oil heating.
