Beautifully positioned above the breathtaking Valley of Dimmingsdale, on the edge of the Peak District National Park, Fairfield Estate extends to approximately 28 acres of glorious Staffordshire countryside. Combining exceptional craftsmanship, spectacular far-reaching views, productive equestrian grazing land and established residential and agricultural income, this is a rare opportunity to acquire one of the region's most complete private country estates. At its heart stands an elegant Country House, complemented by a newly built detached Garden Cottage for multi-generational living, together with Drovers Barn and three Scandinavian oak lodges, creating an exceptional lifestyle estate that balances family living, equestrian pursuits and established income in complete harmony.

Centred around an elegant sandstone Country House, meticulously redesigned and constructed using individually hand-cut Hollington stone, the Fairfield Estate has been thoughtfully created to embrace modern country living. A newly built Garden Cottage provides exceptional accommodation for multi-generational living, while the Drovers Barn, three detached Scandinavian oak lodges and productive grazing land generate established estate income. Extensive agricultural buildings, two independent driveways and well-managed equestrian pasture further enhance the estate's versatility, creating a rare opportunity to acquire a private country estate that successfully combines family living, equestrian pursuits, diversified income and outstanding long-term lifestyle appeal.

The Principal Residence

At the heart of Fairfield Estate stands an exceptional sandstone Country House, painstakingly redesigned and rebuilt over four years. Stunning Hollington stone blocks were individually selected, hand-cut and meticulously laid, creating a timeless home of outstanding quality and craftsmanship that sits effortlessly within its surrounding landscape, appearing as though it has stood proudly for centuries.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the magnificent farmhouse kitchen, where a traditional double Aga, impressive exposed beams, underfloor heating and a striking inglenook fireplace create an exceptional space for everyday family life and entertaining. Flooded with natural light, the principal rooms enjoy breathtaking panoramic views across Fairfield Estate, overlooking the lake and, beyond, the enchanting Valley of Dimmingsdale.

Designed to complement the principal residence, the newly built detached Garden Cottage provides beautifully appointed ancillary accommodation with two generous bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting room, underfloor heating, garaging and equally spectacular views across the estate. Together, the Country House and Garden Cottage create outstanding flexibility for multi-generational living, dependent relatives, guest accommodation or older children, seamlessly extending the principal residence to five bedrooms and five bathrooms.

Established Estate Income

Carefully positioned to preserve the privacy of the principal residence, Fairfield Estate benefits from an exceptional collection of independent residential accommodation that provides established estate income while enhancing the long-term sustainability of the estate.

Three beautifully crafted Scandinavian oak lodges, each offering one bedroom, a luxurious bathroom and open-plan kitchen and sitting room, enjoy breathtaking panoramic views across the rolling Staffordshire countryside, overlooking Alton Valley and towards the Peak District National Park. Individually positioned to maximise privacy, each lodge provides outstanding guest accommodation and an established income stream.

Complementing the lodges is Drovers Barn, an attractive detached Hollington stone barn conversion offering two bedrooms, a family bathroom, a generous kitchen and dining room, and a welcoming sitting room centred around a traditional open fireplace. Full of character and enjoying its own private setting, Drovers Barn provides additional high-quality accommodation that further contributes to the estate's established residential income.

Together with productive grazing land generating a separate agricultural income, these thoughtfully designed residences create a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully balanced country estate where established residential and grazing income support the ongoing stewardship and enjoyment of this remarkable holding.

The Estate & Grounds

Beyond the beautifully landscaped gardens, Fairfield Estate unfolds into approximately 28 acres of some of Staffordshire's most captivating countryside. Traditional dry-stone walls, mature pleached hedgerows and gently rolling grazing paddocks create a landscape of exceptional beauty, enjoying breathtaking views across the estate, the stocked lake, Alton Valley and towards the Peak District National Park.

Designed with both practicality and longevity in mind, every grazing paddock benefits from independent water and electricity supplies, providing outstanding infrastructure for equestrian pursuits, livestock and modern estate management. The productive grazing generates an established agricultural income, complementing the residential accommodation and creating a beautifully balanced country estate.

Enhancing the estate further is a charming Old English orchard, a beautifully stocked man-made lake and a collection of traditional estate outbuildings, including stores, workshops and a greenhouse, all contributing to the character, functionality and enduring appeal of this remarkable holding.

A substantial agricultural barn forms an integral part of the estate's infrastructure, currently providing extensive storage together with a fitted kitchen, office, mezzanine floor and solar panels. Offering exceptional flexibility, the building is ideally suited to agricultural or equestrian use and, subject to the necessary planning consents, presents exciting potential for a variety of future uses, including an indoor riding arena, commercial premises, workshops, secure storage or other diversified business opportunities, further enhancing the long-term versatility and value of Fairfield Estate.

Whether your ambition is to create an exceptional equestrian home, a private family estate, a multi-generational country residence or a beautifully balanced lifestyle investment with established residential and agricultural income, Fairfield Estate offers a truly rare opportunity to acquire one of Staffordshire's most complete and versatile private country estates.
