Property description

Where's the game in keeping the best kept secret in Staffordshire?? There isn't any and I don't intend on keeping it!! For with views stretching for several counties, I could party to my little hearts content and still only disturb the odd pheasant! Gamekeepers Cottage sitting high in the Staffordshire countryside and surveying all it has which amounts to a fair bit, land totalling approximately 9 acres, an agricultural building amounting to 2886 sq ft currently used for stabling 7 horses but potential for whatever you need, a menage, pretty woodland, as well as formal gardens. What more would any self respecting Gamekeeper be asking for? Well, I suppose you may want Mum to stay?? With a self contained annexe she can stay and keep herself to herself! The main house has a lovely entrance hallway, a stunning dining room with tessellated flooring which leads through to the enormous living room with inglenook and log burner as well as French doors to throw open on sunny days and balmy evenings, also the country style breakfast kitchen and guest cloakroom all downstairs. A turned staircase leads to a galleried landing with doors leading to the master bedroom with it's own ensuite, bedroom two with access to the spacious loft room, and bedroom three as well as the main family bathroom. The annexe adjoins the main house and has a stylish open plan living and dining kitchen complete with log burner, a laundry room and then stairs to the first floor where there are two good bedrooms and bathroom. A sweeping gravel drive leads you to the house and further down to the stabling and land.
