School Lane, Aston, TF9

Open 9am-9pm, 7 Days A Week!

If homes were graded, Old School House would still earn top marks for character, charm, and idyllic village living—but now with even more to shout about.

Positioned along School Lane in the highly regarded rural village of Aston, this handsome late Victorian former school has been thoughtfully converted into a distinctive three-bedroom detached home, blending period features with practical modern living.

Step inside and you’re immediately welcomed by a characterful entrance hallway, setting the tone for what’s to come. The heart of the home is a substantial lounge diner—an impressive, sociable space ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Beautiful walk-in bay windows, complete with built-in window seating, invite you to sit back and enjoy the outlook, while a stunning inglenook fireplace with log burner creates a real focal point and cosy atmosphere.

One of the standout features of the home is the striking library. With a high vaulted ceiling, original exposed trusses, and stylish plantation shutters, this is a room full of personality—perfect as a reading room, home office, or simply somewhere to unwind.

The ground floor is completed by a well-appointed breakfast kitchen, ideal for informal dining, along with a useful utility room and a convenient guest WC.

Upstairs, the sense of space continues with three generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom.

Externally, the property offers excellent outside space, with a private driveway leading to a double garage and a selection of useful outbuildings. The gardens extend to both the front and rear, providing pleasant areas to enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

Location is where this home truly excels. Aston offers that rare balance—peaceful, rural living with everyday convenience close at hand. Scenic walks through Maer Woods are within walking distance, giving a real sense of being tucked away in the countryside, yet you remain superbly connected. Stafford mainline railway station is approximately a 20-minute drive, Newcastle-under-Lyme around 15 minutes, and Nantwich, Market Drayton, and Junction 15 of the M6 are all within a comfortable 10–15 minute drive.

A home that feels a world away—yet keeps you firmly connected.

Anti-Money Laundering & ID Checks

Once an offer is accepted on a property marketed by Dourish & Day estate agents we are required to complete ID verification checks on all buyers and to apply ongoing monitoring until the transaction ends. Whilst this is the responsibility of Dourish & Day we may use the services of MoveButler or Guild365, to verify Clients’ identity. This is not a credit check and therefore will have no effect on your credit history. You agree for us to complete these checks, and the cost of these checks is £30.00 inc. VAT per buyer. This is paid in advance, when an offer is agreed and prior to a sales memorandum being issued. This charge is non-refundable.

Front Garden

The front of the property is set back from the road and is predominantly laid to lawn, complemented by a variety of plants, trees and shrubs. A paved pathway leads to the entrance of the home. To the side, a driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles and leads to the double garage. There is also gated access to the rear garden.

Rear Garden

The rear garden is enclosed and private, offering a courtyard-style feel due to the surrounding outbuildings. Designed for low maintenance, it features a block-paved seating area, a gravel seating area, and a lawn with a decorative pond.
