Denise White Estate Agents Comments - **Charming Character Residence – Former Village School**

Welcome to this spacious and characterful residence, a former village school built in the 1870s and once serving as the headmaster's home. Nestled in the picturesque Staffordshire Moorlands, this stone cottage is located in a setting near the Derbyshire border, surrounded by lush fields, the stunning Peak District, and the scenic Churnet Valley. This property offers excellent commuting links to the market towns of Leek, Ashbourne, and Cheadle, along with an abundance of country walks right at your doorstep.

The current owners have made numerous enhancements, including a brand-new kitchen, bathroom, en-suite, cloakroom, and an updated decor throughout. The accommodation features three well-appointed bedrooms, one of which includes a newly fitted en-suite shower room, along with a stylish family bathroom. The ground floor boasts two inviting reception rooms, complemented by the newly fitted kitchen. Upon entering, you are greeted by a welcoming hallway that includes a cloakroom with a newly installed WC.

The living room exudes a cosy yet classic ambiance, complete with a log-burning fire and bold, dramatic colours that enhance its charm. The dining room offers an open feel, seamlessly connecting to the kitchen while maintaining two distinct areas, perfect for entertaining and engaging with guests.

The kitchen showcases an exclusive range of bespoke units at both base and eye levels, featuring Corian work surfaces, space for a range cooker, an extractor hood, and a double sink overlooking the rear garden. Additional highlights include an integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer. A versatile area serves as a useful boot room or chill-out space, leading to a 'pantry space' ideal for utility purposes, with room for an extra fridge.

Upstairs, you will find three generously sized bedrooms, with the main bedroom measuring an impressive 17 feet, offering a calming décor perfect for relaxation. Bedroom two features a newly fitted en-suite shower room, while bedroom three over looks the rear garden and showcases a feature fireplace. The family bathroom is a luxurious heritage-style suite, complete with a freestanding bath, shower over with a glass screen, WC, and pedestal wash hand basin.

The spacious loft is clear of any structural elements, presenting an exciting opportunity for a loft conversion if desired, subject to any building regulations needed.

Externally, the property features a gravelled driveway providing ample off-road parking. The rear garden includes ample seating space with a large lawn, and a summer house. Additionally, the property benefits from just under an acre of land to the side, classified as a Site of Special Scientific Interest, complete with fenced boundaries.
