High Offley, Stafford

BRIEF DESCRIPTION Discreetly positioned, this home hides its true character from the outside world, yet once inside, it reveals itself as one of the area's most impressive homes. Set within a total plot of over two acres, including beautifully maintained Gardens and a Paddock, it enjoys some of the finest views you'll find locally. The living accommodation is wonderfully versatile and finished to a high standard throughout. Despite its tranquil countryside setting, it is only minutes from the A519 and around twelve minutes from Newport Town Centre.

The spacious Central Entrance Hall leads into a superb Kitchen and Dining Area with far-reaching views, which is complemented by a large adjoining Utility Room offering extra storage. There is a Ground Floor WC, a bright and airy through Lounge accessed from the hall, and a further stunning Sitting Room with a vaulted ceiling - a space that could equally serve as an Additional Bedroom if desired. The ground floor also includes a Guest Bedroom with an En-Suite and a Snug, which was originally a Bedroom, that the current owners converted to accommodate a family member as part of a partial annex.

Upstairs, there are Two beautifully spacious Bedrooms, both with En-Suites and access to a Magnificent Balcony that makes the most of the outstanding views.

Outside, the property continues to impress with a Detached Double Garage featuring an internal staircase to a Hobby Room above. There is also a substantial Timber Stable Block, a Timber Office, Two Timber Storage Sheds, a Potting Shed, and a Greenhouse. The Gardens are extensive and in excellent condition, with attractive Patio areas, a Summerhouse, a vegetable garden, and an abundance of Parking and Hard standing - all set within the property's generous and well-planned Two Acre Grounds. 

LOCATION Situated in the sought after village of High Offley, approximately 1 mile from the larger village of Woodseaves, with its Post Office and public house.

The more comprehensive shopping, leisure and employment facilities offered by Stafford and Telford town centre are approximately 10.5 miles and 16 miles distance.
