Three acres of freedom, a beautifully refurbished country cottage and a lifestyle that's increasingly difficult to find.
Some homes are about the house itself. Others are about everything that comes with it. At Brick Kiln Croft, it's the combination of both that makes this such an appealing place to call home.
Surrounded by 3.099 acres of gardens and land, with open countryside views, a south-facing garden and a collection of useful outbuildings, in particular a large barn which provides an extensive footprint with development potential. This charming country cottage offers the space and privacy to enjoy rural life on your own terms. Whether that's keeping horses, creating a smallholding, giving the children room to roam or simply enjoying the luxury of having very few neighbours, the possibilities are wonderfully varied.
Having remained in the same family since 1974, Brick Kiln Croft has a genuine sense of history. More recently, the property has undergone a comprehensive programme of refurbishment, including improvements to the heating, electrical installation, kitchen and bathrooms. The result is a home that retains its traditional cottage character whilst offering the comfort and practicality expected of modern family living.
Inside, the accommodation is generous and inviting, with rooms that feel comfortable rather than formal. The principal lounge extends to almost 26 feet (25.8' x 13.6'), providing an impressive space for relaxing and entertaining. A substantial brick fireplace, complete with a multi-fuel stove, brings warmth and character, whilst windows frame views of the surrounding gardens and countryside.
Adjoining the lounge, the garden room (13.2' x 11.5') offers a different perspective on the grounds. Surrounded by glazing, it's a lovely place to sit and enjoy the changing seasons, with the landscape providing a natural backdrop throughout the year. There is study(9.9' x 9') or downstairs 5th bedroom ideal for home working or guests stays.
Four bedrooms provide accommodation for family and guests,
Master Bedroom - (20.4' x 10.4') with Master En-suite (10' x 5'1)
Bed Two - (10' x 9.4')
Bed Three - (12' x 8.8')
Bed Four - 13' x 6.7')
The refurbished kitchen (18.1' x 11.10') and bathroom (8' x 7.10') add to the appeal of a property that has already benefited from significant investment.
Outside is where the lifestyle really comes into its own.
The south-facing garden provides an inviting space for outdoor dining, entertaining and enjoying the sunshine, whilst the wider grounds offer the freedom to pursue a whole host of interests. With approximately three acres in total, there's genuine potential for equestrian use, subject to any necessary consents, alongside more leisurely pursuits such as gardening, growing your own produce or simply enjoying the open space.
A sweeping gravel driveway creates an attractive approach to the cottage, with extensive parking and three garages providing valuable storage and practical space for country living.
Rural living, without losing touch with everything else.
Positioned along Moat Lane, Brick Kiln Croft enjoys a peaceful countryside setting close to the village of Newborough. The surrounding area is characterised by open farmland, quiet lanes and attractive Staffordshire villages, with Hoar Cross, Yoxall and Abbots Bromley all nearby.
Abbots Bromley offers a selection of independent shops, cafés, traditional pubs and schooling, whilst the wider area provides beautiful countryside to explore on foot, by bicycle or on horseback. The nearby market towns and larger centres of Burton upon Trent, Lichfield and Uttoxeter offer additional amenities and connections.
Ultimately, Brick Kiln Croft is about the freedom to live a little differently. A characterful cottage that's been thoughtfully brought up to date, with enough land to create your own version of country life.
For those looking to swap a conventional garden and neighbouring houses for open space, privacy and countryside views, this is a home with a great deal to offer.
