Moor Lane, Aston-On-Trent, DE72

WELCOME TO MOOR HOUSE — A SUBSTANTIAL AND BEAUTIFULLY FINISHED FAMILY HOME IN A PEACEFUL ASTON-ON-TRENT SETTING. FIVE/SIX BEDROOMS, BREATHTAKING FIELD VIEWS AND THREE FLOORS OF EXCEPTIONAL FAMILY SPACE.

Occupying an enviable position on the edge of the highly regarded village of Aston-Trent, Moor House is an impressive five /six-bedroom detached residence that delivers space, style, flexibility and an enviable sense of tranquillity. With sweeping field views immediately to the front, beautifully landscaped gardens to the rear and superb accommodation extending across three spacious floors, this is a home that demands to be appreciated in person.

Our Agent Mikaela Says:

“From the moment you arrive, Moor House makes an unmistakable impression. Set back from the road and enjoying beautiful open views across the surrounding countryside, this substantial detached home offers the kind of space and versatility that modern family life demands — while retaining a wonderfully peaceful and welcoming atmosphere.

The generous driveway provides excellent off-road parking and leads to a large double garage, complete with an electric up-and-over door, power, lighting and a partially boarded loft area with its own light. There is also the significant advantage of an EV charging point, perfectly complementing the practical credentials of this exceptional property.

Step inside and the spacious entrance hallway immediately sets the tone. With direct access to the garage, useful storage for coats and shoes and a convenient downstairs WC, it is both welcoming and wonderfully functional.

The principal living accommodation is equally impressive. The bright and inviting living room is flooded with natural light, with a beautiful bay window framing views across the garden. From here, the accommodation flows effortlessly via double doors into the dining room, creating a superb environment for everything from relaxed family evenings to memorable occasions entertaining friends and extended family.

The contemporary grey kitchen provides a stylish and highly practical heart to the home, incorporating integrated appliances, a breakfast bar and double doors opening directly onto the garden. It is a space designed not simply for cooking, but for everyday family life.

Ascending via the solid oak staircase, the accommodation becomes even more impressive. The first floor features a generously proportioned principal bedroom with a spacious en-suite, alongside two further double bedrooms, a stunning modern four-piece family bathroom, and further smaller bedroom currently utilised as an office.

The second floor reveals two generous additional bedrooms, together with a further shower room. This exceptional arrangement provides an abundance of flexibility — whether required for children, teenagers, guests, home working or simply the luxury of having space to spare. There is little danger of the morning bathroom rush here.

Outside, the west-facing rear garden is every bit as appealing as the accommodation itself. Professionally landscaped and beautifully established, it features colourful planted borders, a substantial patio and a relaxing separate seating area. Thoughtfully designed to make the very most of the afternoon and evening sunshine, it provides a wonderfully private setting for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply unwinding at the end of the day.

Yet, for me, one of Moor House’s most compelling features has to be those wonderful field views to the front. They give the property a rare sense of openness and tranquillity, creating the feeling of being tucked away amongst the countryside while remaining within easy reach of village amenities and excellent transport connections.

Quite simply, Moor House is a home that combines scale, versatility, presentation and location in a particularly compelling way — and for a growing family searching for somewhere truly special, it deserves to be firmly on the viewing list.”

Our Sellers Thoughts:

“Moor House has been our much-loved family home for over 17 years. We purchased the property when it was newly built, appreciating the space our two young sons would need as they grew up, and from the very beginning it felt like somewhere we could truly settle and make memories. It has been a wonderfully happy home for us — light-filled, welcoming and peaceful, in a lovely part of Aston-on-Trent. We have thoroughly enjoyed living here and will be genuinely sad to leave. Our two sons have now grown up and flown the nest, and after 17 very happy years, the time has finally come for us to downsize. We now look forward to Moor House beginning its next chapter with a new family, and we are certain that they will enjoy living here and creating their own happy memories just as much as we have.”
