Renovated 17th-century cottage with annexe and extensive gardens in peaceful hamlet.
17th-century thatched cottage recently refurbished throughout
A truly special 17th-century thatched cottage set in tranquil Mavesyn Ridware, Church Cottage combines period charm with a comprehensive, recent renovation. The house retains original features — beamed ceilings, feature fireplaces and character windows — while offering modern comforts including a new thatched roof, double glazing and gas central heating.
The roomy layout suits a variety of buyers: three double bedrooms in the main cottage (including a ground-floor bedroom with ensuite), two reception rooms, an Aga-equipped kitchen and a useful boot/utility. A detached one-bedroom annexe with kitchen and large office/studio adds flexibility for guests, home-working or as a potential income stream (subject to permissions).
Outside, extensive gardens wrap the property with secluded seating spots, cottage planting, a detached garage, driveway and a separate home-office/gin cabin. The hamlet location offers peaceful countryside living with Lichfield and road/rail links within a short drive.
Important practical points: the house is listed (Grade II) which can restrict changes and may complicate future works; the property sits in a medium flood-risk area; broadband speeds are slow; and council tax is high (Band G). These factors should be considered alongside the home’s substantial recent refurbishment and strong rural appeal.
