Fair Oak, Eccleshall

Country road, take me home, to a place, where I belong, not quite West Virginia but almost heaven, so we’ll take you there, we’ll take you there. And you won’t be disappointed if country life is what you’re looking for. Whether it’s just you or with a special person in your life, whether you have kids or not, if you like being with the outdoors, tinkering in the garden, feeling a bit of the good life, then you must come and view The Cottage. It starts with a private driveway where you can park two to three cars, then a pathway leads down to the front of the cottage to the porch entrance and then you’re into the kitchen/breakfast room where you can calmly enjoy a morning coffee with the pretty views outside the windows. Fitted with cupboards to the floor and walls with a worktop over, a Belfast style sink and integrated appliances that include; double Bosch ovens, Bosch induction hob and Bosch washing machine and tumble dryer, then space for a freestanding fridge/freezer, this country kitchen has it all in one enchanting space. Through the latched wooden door you continue through to the dining room which is a gorgeous space with beams to the ceiling a fireplace and all the charm that you would expect from a cottage like this, a spacious and cosy room that you may chose to use as a sitting room too as there’s plenty of room for a dining table and sofa. The versatility of this wonderful cottage you’ll see when wandering around continues throughout which we think makes it extra special. From here there are three more doors, one which opens into the rear staircase, another offering some fantastic storage space under the stairs and the third leading you into the lounge which enjoys beautiful views over the garden and cosy fireplace for those colder winter evenings. A separate small window to the lounge overlooks the expansive views on the adjacent field. Continuing on you pass through a small hallway and on the right is a the bathroom fitted with a shower enclosure with curved, glass sliding screen, W.C, pedestal sink and a large towel rail. The last room to the ground floor is currently used as a large study but would make the perfect third bedroom or a combined space for an office and spare room for guests. Heading up the stairs we hope you’ll appreciate the quirky staircase and wobbly wall with the little window overlooking the dining room, it’s simply enchanting and charming at the same time then when you reach the top you’ll need to dip your head but stop and take a moment to look out the window to the views thereon. There are then two large double bedrooms, one with fitted wardrobes and one with a feature fireplace with windows that overlook the pretty garden which is where we’ll now head.
