Approached via electric oak gates and sweeping private driveway
Approached via electric oak gates, Brow Nook is a distinguished Staffordshire farmhouse set in approximately 3.5 acres of private grounds (vendor notes an additional 6 acres of rented land). The house blends traditional charm and high-spec contemporary additions — a double-height oak-framed family room, bespoke Drooff-equipped kitchen, bar and games rooms, and a principal suite with dressing room and luxury ensuite. Landscaped gardens, gazebo and hot-tub area create attractive outdoor living spaces with extensive privacy.
The estate is exceptionally well equipped for equestrian use: four brick-built stables with auto water feeders, a large tack room, secure paddocks, and an all-weather menage. Agricultural buildings are insulated and fitted with solar panels and battery packs, plus a large workshop, office, gym and covered carport — useful for a range of rural or small-business uses. Practical extras include triple garaging with EV charging, a one-bed studio above the garage and a separate Julius Bahn Oak Lodge annexe with indoor/outdoor kitchen facilities.
Comfort and efficiency have been addressed with underfloor heating and air conditioning in principal living areas and a modern boiler-fed oil central heating system elsewhere. The property sits in a very affluent, low-crime rural hamlet with excellent mobile signal; broadband provision is FTTC/superfast but actual speeds are reported slow, so check before home-working requirements are finalised. Services include mains electricity and water, septic tank drainage, and an EPC ‘A’ rating.
Important practical notes: the main heating fuel is oil (not a community supply), walls are believed to be solid brick with no insulation (assumed), and the property is historic (pre-1900) which can affect maintenance and running costs. There are restrictive covenants relating to mines and minerals to observe. Overall this substantial, characterful estate will suit families and equestrian or lifestyle purchasers seeking a turn-key country home with strong entertainment and outbuilding facilities, but buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance associated with older construction and rural services.
