Chantry Stables, Thorney Lanes, Hoar Cross, DE13

Residing within the premier hamlet of Hoar Cross is Chantry Stables, a characterful converted barn set within an established half acre plot, benefitting from generously proportioned and impressive living accommodation including a designated home office, three superb double bedrooms and a delightful countryside setting.

Enjoying tranquil views over surrounding Staffordshire countryside, this exceptional barn conversion formed part of a handful of exclusive conversion and character homes, being within minutes of luxurious amenities and idyllic countryside pursuits. The barn has been immaculately maintained since its conversion in the mid 1990s, showcasing charming features throughout including exposed beams and brickwork, thumb latch doors and a traditional fireplace to the lounge, with plenty of scope to remodel or refurbish as desired by the next owners.

The exceptional Chantry Stables comprises generously proportioned interiors including two spacious reception rooms, a farmhouse dining kitchen and utility, with the lounge showcasing impressive tall ceilings, exposed beams and a quirky mezzanine library. Also accessed from the reception hall are a useful study/playroom, a walk in cloakroom and a guests WC, as well as pedestrian access into the double garage. The first floor landing leads into three oversized double bedrooms, with the master being serviced by a dressing room and en suite. There is a second en suite to bedroom two, a room with plumbing in place offers space for conversion into a family bathroom, and the principal bedroom lends itself to conversion into two separate bedrooms if required. Outside, beautifully tended formal gardens extend to 0.5 acre having both an orchard and a delightful wildlife pond alongside extensive lawns all bordered with tranquil Staffordshire countryside. A sweeping drive shared with one additional property gives access to an expansive parking area with access into the double garage via electric doors, and double gates give access into the garden.
