Property description

Big Cullamoor Farmhouse is a rare opportunity to purchase an exciting renovation project in one of the prettiest spots of rural Staffordshire. The elevated position of the farmhouse provides incredible views, reaching as far as Hanchurch and Swynnerton Old Park.

Within easy reach of the larger settlements of Stone to the south, Newcastle under Lyme and the Potteries to the north, the property enjoys a secluded location set amongst gently rolling farmland.

The farmhouse is a four bedroom detached dwelling with three reception rooms on the ground floor and four bedrooms plus a bathroom on the first floor. There is a useful range of brick built outbuildings to the rear.

The large central courtyard has a large Staffordshire brick built two story barn fronting the lane and providing a good degree of privacy. An L-shaped run of single storey stables and loose boxes enclosed a further two sides of the concrete surfaced courtyard.

There is a further area of level and gently sloping paddock extending to approximately 0.5 acres adjoining the property (the area closest to the property was at one time used as a tennis court). Further land may well be available. The National Trust manage a large area of heathland close by called Downs Banks, very well regarded by ramblers and horse riders alike. The local area is criss-crossed by a network of twisting country lanes providing further opportunity to exercise and explore the surrounding countryside.

Please note that a covenant will be placed on the property by the vendor restricting occupation to that of a single family. The Vendors will retain a right of way across the area shaded on the plan.

Please note that online aerial images show a range of agricultural buildings to the right of the property. These buildings will remain in use. however, they are not overly intrusive to the property, being shielded by the barn and run of stables.
