If your property search has felt like a sat nav with no signal and far too many wrong turns, Newport Road has just recalculated… and the new route looks rather impressive indeed.

Positioned on the edge of the sought-after village of Haughton, just a short drive from Stafford and with excellent access towards Newport, The Villa offers that rare balance of countryside calm and everyday convenience. This is a setting that has long attracted buyers seeking space, scenery, and a slower pace of life, all without feeling disconnected.

Set within approximately 1.3 acres, the property sits proudly behind gated access, creating a wonderful sense of arrival with extensive parking and a backdrop that immediately hints at the lifestyle on offer. The Villa blends character features with modern touches, resulting in a home that feels both timeless and practical.

Step inside and the entrance hallway provides a warm welcome, with stairs rising to the first floor and doors leading to the principal rooms. The sitting room is a cosy retreat, centred around a charming fireplace, while the main living/dining room is undoubtedly the heart of the home. Here, a striking brick inglenook fireplace with recessed cast iron stove creates a wonderful focal point, complemented by wooden flooring and a layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. A sliding patio door opens into the conservatory, while a cleverly concealed secret door leads through to the study or playroom… a feature that adds both character and a touch of fun.

The study or playroom is a highly versatile space, easily adapted to suit a range of needs, while the conservatory offers a light-filled spot to relax with double doors opening out to the gardens.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully modernised, featuring a range of white fronted units, a matching breakfast bar island, complementing worktops, and integrated appliances including a double oven, hob, dishwasher, fridge, and freezer. A door leads through to the utility room, with a guest WC conveniently positioned just off.

Upstairs, four generously proportioned double bedrooms provide excellent accommodation. The principal bedroom benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and its own en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom, complete with a freestanding oval bath, separate shower cubicle, vanity wash hand basin, and WC.

The grounds are where The Villa truly shines. A park home style lodge offers fantastic additional accommodation, ideal for guests or multi-generational living, with an open plan kitchen, dining, and living space enjoying views across the gardens and pond, alongside two bedrooms, an en-suite WC, and a modern shower room.

To the side of the property, a range of outbuildings are currently used by the vendor for a cattery, offering further flexibility for a variety of uses. To the rear, a two-storey barn provides garaging with a hay loft above.

The outdoor space is both extensive and beautifully varied, featuring a large pond, paddock garden with a further pond, and a ménage area beyond, all framed by far-reaching countryside views. Whether for equestrian use, outdoor entertaining, or simply enjoying the setting, the grounds provide a lifestyle opportunity as much as they do space.

Altogether, The Villa is far more than just a home. It is a place where character, versatility, and countryside living come together effortlessly… and where your property search may very well come to a satisfying and stylish conclusion.

Whilst this is the responsibility of Dourish & Day we may use the services of MoveButler or Guild365, to verify Clients’ identity.
