There are many benefits of rural life, yet this stunning property is only a five minute drive from the vibrant and beautiful Cathedral City of Lichfield.

Accommodation
A truly outstanding solid wood, suede and graphite painted kitchen is further complimented by state-of-the-art appliances to include Siemens coffee machine, combination microwave oven and grill, steam oven, CDA fridge/freezer, and a dual wine cooler/warmer. There are also four warming drawers, a CDA water machine, Teppanyaki grill, indoor barbeque, downdraft extractor, dishwasher, and a SMEG stainless-steel 1.5 Range style cooker. The range of bespoke units are simply stunning and are completed with Quartz worksurfaces over. The beautiful island unit comprises Champagne trough, vegetable drawers, and a contrasting wooden dining bar. Further features go on to include an integrated television, bioethanol feature fire, and an iPad based control for the surrounding sound system, together with a security television monitor. This space remains spacious and open, given the natural light provided by the vaulted ceiling and glazed section which opens directly out to an entertaining area.

Underfloor heating runs throughout the majority of the property, beneath a mixture of engineered oak flooring, slate tiling, and other hard premium surfaces. There is also a handy, integrated vacuum system throughout.

Through to the light and airy lounge; courtesy of ample windows and rooflights, this lavish space is stunning with vaulted ceilings and exposed beams. A brick fireplace houses the log burner and steps guide down to the wonderful, ever so slightly sunken dining area, with further steps up to the elevated study.

Off the hall to the side is a guest cloakroom, comprising a wash basin and WC set into a modern integrated unit, surrounded by exquisite porcelain tiling. Additionally, there is a separate utility room which continues the high standard running throughout, having quality fittings, plus space and provision for domestic appliances.

The principal bedroom enjoys the benefit of its own private, beautifully appointed en-suite comprising an oval free-standing bath with external chrome taps and shower, twin circular stone wash basins with integrated units and an adjacent WC, not forgetting the separate shower with body jets, porcelain tiled flooring and an opaque glass door leading to the dressing room which contains an extensive range of built-in furniture.

The hall extends into a stunning glazed walk-through, providing access to the second bedroom which has part-vaulted ceilings, a large Spa bath with integrated television, wash basin with WC set into an integrated unit, and again porcelain tiling. Bedrooms three and four offer the same tremendous character and style, and are served by the luxuriously appointed Jack and Jill en-suite which boasts a stunning feature curved wall with twin open walk-in showers, a wall-hung wash basin and WC.

There is also a gym which would make an excellent home office, with a separate store off.

Outside, access to here and the few neighbouring properties is via a private drive owned by a neighbouring property, 'The Long Barn' has full right of access, leading to its own private driveway which provides a spacious parking area and access to the three-bay carport which is based on a floating pad, and not a formal building. A substantial gate leads to a contemporary-style, large walled courtyard-style garden with a slightly raised and very spacious sun terrace, with vertical cut sleepers and overall provides an outstanding entertaining area. In addition, there is a stunning, feature fish pool with substantial slate flagstones, carefully situated adjacent to the contemporary glazed walk-through.

The rear garden provides another fantastic entertaining space with a sun terrace and is accessed directly from the dining kitchen, having a flagstone base and walls incorporating seating areas, together with a built-in barbeque. Shallow steps guide you up to an extensive lawn, plus there are further terraces, including decks to the side. Ranch-style fencing surrounds the rear of the garden, leading to a public footpath which in turn leads to a Woodland Trust, and beyond here is further fencing to the paddock which is currently home to three lovely Donkeys and two stables.

There are plenty of woodlands and walking trails to explore surrounding this unique property, with the footpath providing access to the Pipe Hall Farm - Woodland Trust. The Cathedral city centre of Lichfield is only a five minute drive away, offering an abundance of classy bars, pubs and restaurants, in addition to the beautiful Cathedral, Minster Pool, Stowe Pool, and Beacon Park. The intercity railway station gives direct access into Birmingham city centre, stopping at other suburban holts on the cross-city line. Trent Valley station provides excellent services to London Euston, some of which take less than 1hr 20mins, and the M6 toll provides direct access into the national motorway network.
