Description

This charming cottage, believed to date back 200 years, features significant extensions that enhance its overall appeal. Occupying a generous plot of about 0.75 acres, the property includes various outbuildings equipped with electricity, water, and power, offering versatile opportunities for renovation or alternative uses such as ancillary accommodation (subject to planning permission). The cottage retains many period features alongside spacious living areas across two floors. Nestled between Wheaton Aston and Church Eaton, the location benefits from easy access to major transport routes including the M6 and A5, making it a practical choice for commuters while also being close to local amenities in Stafford and Newport. The surrounding area is well-served by educational institutions, catering to families. Internally, Sweet Turf Cottage boasts well-proportioned rooms including a welcoming lounge with an open grate fireplace, dining room overlooking the rear garden, and a breakfast kitchen fitted with essential appliances but potentially needing modernisation. The first floor offers four double bedrooms and two bathrooms. The exterior provides ample parking alongside beautifully landscaped gardens that include a terrace ideal for outdoor entertaining. Notably, there’s an extensive timber outbuilding and a large brick structure previously utilized as licensed kennels for 26 dogs; these spaces could be repurposed under new ownership. The property is connected to mains electricity, has LPG heating, utilizes a private well for water supply, and drainage via septic tank. With appropriate adjustments and enhancements throughout the premises and grounds, this cottage presents a fantastic investment opportunity in a desirable area.
