An impressive Five-Bedroom Detached Country Farmhouse that's been updated to a high standard whilst retaining a wealth of character and original features - with the added benefit of being offered to the market with No Upward Chain.
Property overview Rectory Farm is a substantial Five-Bedroom Period Farmhouse, with extensive lawned gardens, far-reaching countryside views and set in the heart of the picturesque hamlet of Mucklestone.
Offered with No Upward Chain, this is a truly exceptional country residence with origins dating back to 1720. Rectory Farm is rich in history and has been updated to a high standard whilst retaining its architectural character and charm. The property makes a strong first impression, with a striking black and white half-timbered first-floor, distinctive brickwork and chimneys, and extensive gardens.
Internally, the accommodation is both spacious and versatile, combining period character with the practicality of modern family living. For example, the original leaded window to the Living Room is perfectly complemented by a modern log burner.
To the ground floor is the Entrance Hall with the original Minton tiled floor and staircase to the first floor, the Sitting Room and a separate Dining Room with a log burner set in a feature fireplace.
The Breakfast Room has been opened up into the Kitchen, with both areas having the original quarry tiled floor, and an oil-fired Rayburn Royal stove is the perfect dog-warming spot! Completing the ground floor is the Home Office and Study, together with a useful Utility and Guest Cloakroom.
Upstairs are five generously proportioned Bedrooms. The main staircase leads to a Gallery Landing off which are the Principal Bedroom with En Suite, three further Double Bedrooms and the Family Bathroom with a walk-in shower and free-standing bath.
A second staircase leads up to the Guest Bedroom with a very spacious Shower Room with walk-in shower – so this flexible space would be ideal for guests or extended family living.
There's also a large Cellar that's currently used as a Gym and Playroom. Cars are well catered for too, with a wide Carport, single Garage and Driveway Parking.
Externally, there's an l-Shaped, brick-built annexe which is currently used as workshops and storage areas. These would have the potential to be developed into further living space depending on the necessary planning permissions.
The extensive Garden is laid mainly to lawn, surrounded by mature hedges and post and rail fencing, with a myriad of mature trees and shrubs and a brick-built potting shed. The property's elevated location gives you the most fabulous south-westerly views, with the incredible sunsets bringing the whole sky to life.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and much-loved country home in a beautiful countryside setting, so please call the team at our Market Drayton office to arrange your viewing.
Location Mucklestone is a pretty North Staffordshire hamlet located between Loggerheads and Woore. The hamlet has a well-regarded Primary School and a striking Norman Church, and the nearest shops, post offices and pubs are in Loggerheads and Woore, with a doctors' surgery in the nearby village of Ashley.
Market Drayton offers a far greater range of shops and facilities, including The Grove School, indoor swimming pool, sports clubs, medical centre. Further afield and Newcastle-under-Lyme, Nantwich and Stone are within 20-25 minutes, and there are motorway junctions and mainline train stations in Crewe and Stoke-on-Trent.
