Set privately in Marchington Woodlands, this detached period cottage sits in substantial, largely private grounds with mature trees and far‑reaching countryside views. The house offers traditional character — fireplaces, original features and flexible rooms across two storeys — and presents a clear opportunity for sympathetic restoration or a full modern refurbishment to create a bespoke family home.
The accommodation totals around 1,244 sq ft with three bedrooms, a single bathroom (plus an ensuite off bedroom one), versatile ground-floor study/bedroom and a spacious lounge with a cast-iron log burner. The plot is a major asset: informal lawns, specimen trees and hedged boundaries give excellent seclusion and scope for landscaping or modest extension subject to planning consent.
Buyers should note important practical points: the property needs renovation throughout, broadband speeds are very slow, and the local recorded crime level is above average. The setting is rural and somewhat secluded — access is via a minor lane — so running and maintenance costs, plus travel times, should be considered alongside the lifestyle benefits.
For families and buyers seeking privacy and long-term potential, this cottage offers a rare combination of character and a large plot in a desirable woodland-edge location. Mobile signal is excellent, and the house is within commuting distance of Uttoxeter, Lichfield and Burton‑upon‑Trent, with nearby schools ranging from outstanding to good.
