Woodhouse Farm

Enjoying an enviable setting overlooking panoramic countryside views is Woodhouse Farm, an elegant rural farmhouse showcasing a wealth of character and charm throughout, four double en suite bedrooms plus dressing room and an established plot including an acre of formal gardens and a 3.8 acre field with paddock. Originally dating back to the 1890s, this charming Staffordshire long barn has been sympathetically extended and remodelled over time to create an inspiring family residence with annexe/work from home potential alongside an extensive plot with potential for residential equestrian facilities. The exceptional location of Woodhouse Farm offers a secluded and tranquil haven alongside convenient proximity to local commuter routes, highly regarded schools and the renowned JCB Academy and Headquarters.

The interior comprises idyllic porch, magnificent galleried reception hall with wood burning stove, remodelled farmhouse dining kitchen, four versatile reception rooms plus a fully fitted study, with functional rooms including a rear hallway, large laundry room and cloakroom also to the ground floor. Two staircases rise to the first floor accommodation, with two double en suite bedrooms to one side and the master suite with luxury bathroom, second bedroom with en suite and a dressing room/fifth bedroom off the main galleried landing. The current layout offers versatile options to create a self contained work from home space, or for multigenerational living/ ancillary accommodation. Outside, one acre of formal gardens and private woodland surround the farmhouse enjoying rolling countryside views to all sides, and there is ample parking to the front and side aspects. Woodhouse Farm overlooks a 3.8 acre field which is included in the sale, being ideal for residential equestrian use or to house smaller livestock.
