Main Road, Norton-In-Hales, TF9

Step back in time, yet into a world of exquisite, timeless elegance, with this simply sensational home. Longfield is a cottage lovingly restored and reimagined, a home that feels exactly as it should: full of warmth, beauty, and soul. With its quintessential façade, pretty cottage garden, gravel driveway, and garage, first impressions set the tone for what is truly a majestic property. It’s quite simply as beautiful as a rose in bloom.

Enter through the welcoming side door, where a once-narrow hallway has been transformed into a bright open-plan entrance. To the left, a versatile reception room awaits, perfect as a sitting room, snug, or study, with character beams and a charming fireplace. To the right you’ll find a guest W.C. and a generous under-stairs storage cupboard before stepping into the impressive lounge. Here, another feature fireplace with Clearview log-burning stove takes centre stage beneath exposed beams, creating a grand yet inviting space made for gatherings with family and friends. French doors lead seamlessly into the dining area, which flows into the incredible kitchen/diner/living room. With dual sets of French doors to the stunning rear garden, this open-plan hub is ideal for everything from summer soirées to cosy Christmas dinners, offering a seamless connection from inside to out.

The kitchen is beautifully appointed with cream shaker-style units, sumptuous Quartz worktops, Karndean flooring, and a double Belfast sink. Integrated you’ll find a NEFF induction hob and oven below, as well as a dishwasher, washing machine, fridge and freezer all sitting alongside a classic AGA. A cosy seating area sits the end of the kitchen with Velux style windows and garden-facing French doors providing the perfect spot for morning coffee or an afternoon read whilst watching the birds and bees flutter and play.

Heading upstairs to a spacious landing you’ll find four very large double bedrooms and above this, an incredible large loft space too, this could provide further accommodation, all subject to the necessary planning approval of course. First in your left the second largest of the bedrooms with an original fireplace and windows looking over the pretty front aspect and garden. Opposite is the third biggest bedroom which also offers a feature fireplace and a storage cupboard over the stairs with original ironmongery. Next door is the family bathroom with a corner shower enclosure, a free standing bateau bath and vanity unit with a sink inset and storage beneath, the most luxurious space that will no doubt help you relax after a long day or a cold winter walk. Bedroom four is also a generous double with us saving the best till last; the master suite which offers a luxurious space with a capacious bedroom, dressing room and beautiful en-suite shower room.

Heading back downstairs to the showstopper, south facing garden which is every bit as enchanting as the house itself. Starting with the flagstone patio area, the gentle trickling noise from a small water feature and pond, lined by an abundance of beautiful flowers and shrubbery. The garden path passes the garage and workshop/garden store with a double gated exit to the driveway. To the end of the path the garden opens out to a park like lawn framed by mature trees and shrubs. A haven for gardeners, a playground for children, and a serene escape for all seasons, this outdoor space is nothing short of idyllic.

This remarkable home is not expected to stay on the market for long. To experience Longfields’ rare blend of history, character, and modern comfort, call the Eccleshall office today to arrange your viewing.
