Property description

Park Hill Cottage is a truly rare chance to buy a family home standing in approximately 4.7 acres surrounded by absolutely beautiful countryside but within only few minutes drive along well maintained lanes to the A53 from where Market Drayton and Newcastle under Lyme are both only 12 miles away.

The property has been extended and re modeled over a number of years by the current but does require further work in order to complete the scheme of modernisation. In addition to the main house there is an outbuilding that is currently used for storage but could equally be used for other purposes or extended subject to consent.

The ground floor of the property is accessed through the front door and is centered around an Entrance Hall from where a staircase rises to the first floor and a door opens to the Family Sitting Room. The Sitting Room has a substantial brick fireplace with an open grate and windows overlooking the front and rear of the property.

The Kitchen which overlooks the front of the property is fitted with a range of hand built floor and base units and has space for everyday dining. From the Kitchen a door opens into a large Utility Room from which is fitted with a range of units and has plumbing for an automatic washing machine. Doors from the Utility Room open to the front of the property and also to the principal Sitting Room which can also be accessed via the rear hall. The Sitting Room forms part of the extension and is a large room with a brick built fireplace providing a focal point for the room and has windows overlooking the garden and grounds. The Rear Hall links the extension to the original part of the cottage and also allows access to the guest cloakroom.

On the first floor there are Four Bedrooms all of which are of a generous size and Two Bathrooms. There is an opportunity to convert one Bathroom into a fifth bedroom if required. Three of the Bedrooms are located in the extended part of the property whilst another is separated from the rest of the first floor by the staircase from where a door and steps rise up to a very comfortably sized room.

The property is gated from the lane and the driveway opens up into a graveled parking area. The grounds and garden are currently sown to grass and planted with some specimen trees and shrubs. A small brook forms one boundary to the garden beyond which a paddock overs the potential to graze livestock and has pond which was dug out in the past and could perhaps be reinstated in order to provide an attractive wildlife habitat. The remainder of the grounds are also sown to grass. There is the potential subject to statutory consents to landscape the grounds further and also to develop the outbuildings which include a timber stable block if required.
