Description
The Property - An historic grade II listed house set in 2.2 acres of garden & paddock in a tranquil village location. The Old School House dates in part from around 1630, and over the centuries has seen various incarnations including a school room, shop, parsonage and at some point in history it was several cottages, later becoming a single dwelling. This is a glorious house with beautifully preserved original features which offers spacious and adaptable accommodation, ideal as a single family home and sufficiently versatile if you require separate accommodation for a family member. There is also potential to create a self-contained holiday cottage or rental property with access independent of the main house. The house has been well maintained during its current ownership and is presented to a high standard throughout. Chebsey is a lovely village set amidst rolling Staffordshire Countryside with dog walking opportunities aplenty and whilst seemingly off the beaten track, is in reality a little over 2 miles from the pretty market town of Eccleshall and easily accessible to both Stafford and Stone.

Outside - The Old School House occupies large mature gardens extending in total to approximately 0.89 acres, with an adjoining paddock with gated access from the garden extending to a further 1.35 acres. The gardens are laid mainly to lawn, including a former tennis court with established borders with a variety of shrubs and trees. At the centre of the garden there are the remains of a former brick built pigsty / privy which with some imagination could be utilised for a variety of purposes. Block paved driveway with space to accommodate a number of cars with wooden 5 bar gate and single garage which is integral to the house. There is a further drive on the right hand side of the house as viewed from the road.
