5 bedroom house

A fascinating brick and stone-built property formed from three cottages which were originally part of the Hagley Hall Estate, currently split as two separate but interconnecting houses that offer an obvious investment/letting potential. In front of the property is a lovely lawned and bordered courtyard garden with a range of old outbuildings which form almost the length of two sides. Beyond this formal garden, there lies 4.5 acres of mixed woodland that encircles a stately sized lake, weir and Grade II Listed stone and iron balustraded bridge. The property lies adjacent to Hagley Park and is therefore within a very easy walking distance of Rugeley town centre and amenities, as well as being only 1 mile or so of access to Cannock Chase.

The main house has a good-sized reception hall with stairs to the first floor and a fitted two-piece guest cloakroom. Leading off here is the oak fitted breakfast kitchen with a good range of units, worktops, Range Cooker, various appliance spaces, and a sink unit set behind a front garden facing window.

Also lead off the hall is the large, open-plan lounge with dining area, having feature beams in part, two front-facing bow windows and a feature brick open fireplace. There is also a front door leading out onto the garden.

On the first floor, a well-sized, part-galleried landing gives access to the three double sized bedrooms and the spacious family bathroom. All bedrooms have front garden facing windows and the bathroom has a coloured suite to include bath, wash hand basin and low-level WC.

The separate but adjoining Cottage has its own front entrance door leading into a reception hall with traditional lounge lead off, including a stone fireplace, revealed beams and a front facing bow window. There is also a fitted kitchen with a range of units with worktops over, sink with splashback tiling, appliance spaces, interconnecting door to the main house and a front garden facing window and door. Leading off the kitchen is a useful pantry / store.

On the first floor of the Cottage, there is a double master bedroom, a further single bedroom, and a white fitted bathroom with bath, wash hand basin and WC. Leading off the landing, there is a steep loft stair providing access to a useful loft storage room.

Outside, the overall grounds are approximately 4.5 acres including the lake. There is gated vehicle access close to the front of the property which leads you around to a parking area, carport, and two single irregular shaped garages. In addition, there is an extensive range of modest sized brick-built outbuildings, all in need of substantial repair but nonetheless, offer great potential for a multitude of domestic uses. Woodlands walks from the house guide you down to the lake, the weir and the beautiful stone and iron balustraded, Grade II listed bridge. Such stately garden features would have been the pride of the original Hadley Hall owners.
