Set in approximately 10 acres of Staffordshire Moorlands, this converted barn blends dramatic character with practical family living. Vaulted ceilings, exposed timber beams, stone walls and cast-iron radiators create memorable living spaces including a large lounge, dining room, cinema room and a substantial open-plan kitchen with bi-fold doors framing far-reaching countryside views. Five bedrooms (two en-suite) and a stylish family bathroom provide flexible accommodation for family life or visitors.
The grounds are a major asset: a fully stocked coarse fishing pond with decked seating, three-stable block with tack/store, large stable yard, allotment with raised beds and a detached double garage plus a versatile studio. Ample cobbled driveway parking and a shale yard give space for trailers or horse-boxes. The house is chain-free and positioned within easy reach of Leek, Ashbourne and Cheadle while remaining a remote, wildlife-rich setting.
Practical considerations are clear and should be checked by buyers. Services include septic tank drainage and LPG as the listed mains fuel; a floor-mounted oil boiler is also present in the utility (confirm heating arrangement). The stone walls appear uninsulated (as-built), broadband speeds are very slow and council tax is band F — all factors that may increase running costs and require investment to improve energy efficiency and connectivity.
This property will suit buyers seeking a distinctive country home with equestrian potential, outdoor hobbies and large private grounds. It offers immediately usable, character-rich accommodation but also scope for upgrading heating, insulation and communications to match modern expectations.
