Placed within secluded wrap around gardens is The Old Rectory, an exquisite detached Victorian residence offered with no onward chain, presenting elegant and wonderfully spacious interiors, up to seven bedrooms and a regal setting overlooking idyllic views towards Cannock Chase. Originally dating back to 1864, this former Rectory retains elegant original features throughout to include intricate coving, marble and granite fireplaces, panel doors and deep skirtings, with traditional shutters to most of the ground floor windows. The main staircase leading up to the first and second floors also features the original oak banister and finials, and the property showcases characteristically tall ceilings throughout, as well as full head height to the cellars. The extensive accommodation which is set over three floors (plus the cellar) presents plenty of room to create an independent home-working space or ancillary accommodation, as well as superb potential for refurbishment without the restrictions of a Grade II listed status. The Old Rectory has been a much loved family home for around 60 years and is truly a unique opportunity for the next owners to appreciate, enjoy and expand on this home s fascinating history.

The ground floor entrance hallway leads in turn into the stunning reception hall, where panel doors lead off into four reception rooms (three with either marble or granite mantlepieces and open fires), and a breakfast kitchen with pantry and additional store. The lower ground floor cellars offer excellent storage space or potential for conversion. From the first floor landing, four bedrooms and a master dressing room are serviced by a spacious family bathroom, and the second floor offers three further bedrooms and walk in storage rooms presenting plenty of scope for conversion into additional bedrooms, self contained ancillary living or a home office space. Stunning views over surrounding countryside and towards Cannock Chase can be appreciated from the property, particularly from the second floor accommodation. Outside, wrap around gardens extend to a generous size enjoying an excellent degree of privacy to all aspects, there are an array of outbuildings alongside a walled courtyard and a private driveway providing parking for a number of vehicles as well as access into the detached double garage.
