Wootton, Eccleshall

BRIEF DESCRIPTION An Exceptional Victorian Residence of Distinction, built in 1855.

An outstanding detached Victorian residence that has been beautifully restored and sympathetically modernised by the current owners. The property has undergone a comprehensive program of improvement, blending elegant contemporary living with the timeless character and charm expected of a home of this calibre.

Throughout the house, the fine period detailing has been preserved, including original cornicing.

The house is approached via an attractive frontage with side access leading to an impressive Entrance Hall, which flows through to a grand Central Hallway with original oak flooring. From here, doors open to the elegant Drawing Room, a cosy Snug/Sitting Room, Cellar and a Study, each offering generous proportions and period features.

The Kitchen has been fitted to an exceptional standard, combining modern luxury with traditional style. It includes a range cooker, full-height larder fridge and extensive bespoke cabinetry.

Seamlessly adjoining the kitchen, the owners have created a stunning Orangery, flooded with natural light from its twin lantern skylights. This versatile space opens effortlessly to a Games Area and Summer Sitting Room, continuing through to a more formal Dining Room at the far end - the perfect layout for entertaining.

Further accommodation includes a large Utility Room, a Rear Hall with Ground Floor WC and Cloakroom, Gym and Pantry. The kitchen also benefits from a secondary staircase leading to the first floor.

The principal staircase has been rebuilt in classical style, featuring a fine oak balustrade. The Principal Bedroom Suite offers access to a central Dressing Room and the beautifully appointed Main Bathroom, which also connects back to the landing.

There are two further exceptionally spacious Double Bedrooms, each with their own En Suite Bathroom, along with an additional Double Bedroom and a large Single Bedroom.


Adjoining the main residence is a Brick-Built Outbuilding comprising a Boiler Room, Store, and Kennel.
A Detached Former Coach House has been fully renovated and currently provides two substantial First Floor Offices, a Ground Floor Kitchen and WC, a Front Garage Store, a Rear Store, and a Large Workshop with electric roller shutter doors and Parking Space.

To the front of the Coach House are two original Standing Stables featuring their Original Hay racks and Brick Flooring, along with a Tack Room. Beyond this, there are two further Timber Stables and Tack Room, all set on a concrete yard with access to the Paddocks.

The property enjoys extensive, beautifully landscaped gardens with mature trees and shrubs providing privacy and seclusion from the road. The grounds are thoughtfully divided into two main lawned areas, which lead onto woodland.

In total, the property extends to approximately 2.38 acres, including gardens, paddock, and grounds. Ample driveway parking is available for numerous vehicles. 

LOCATION Beech Grove is located in the village of Wootton and just minutes from Eccleshall's vibrant High Street - with boutique shops, cafes, restaurants and historic charm. The nearby village of Woodseaves itself also benefits from having a local pub, post office, village hall and primary school.

The more comprehensive, shopping, leisure and employment facilities offered by Stafford Town Centre (8 miles) and its Railway Station with links to London, Manchester, Liverpool and the North West and Telford Town Centre are approximately 17 miles distance.
