Originally built to stable shire horses, this beautifully converted cottage sits quietly in the Cheshire countryside in Buerton, close to the Cheshire and Shropshire border. It's the kind of place that feels a world away from everything while still being within easy reach of the towns and villages you need day to day.
The conversion has been done with real care.
Step inside and you're immediately aware of the character - exposed beams, original brickwork, vaulted ceilings with roof trusses that remind you exactly what this building once was. It's full of warmth and personality in a way that new builds simply can't replicate.
On the ground floor the fully fitted shaker style kitchen features light marble effect worktops, an integrated oven and microwave and optional spaces for a dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. The light wood plank effect flooring flows through from here into the quaint and characterful sitting room where new UPVC double French doors open straight out onto the patio decking - the kind of layout that works brilliantly for entertaining. A feature ceiling beam and an exposed brick pillar anchor the space and give it real soul.
Head upstairs and you'll find two bedrooms, each with their own distinctive circular window and roof windows that flood the rooms with natural light. The original beamwork and vaulted ceiling continue throughout. The first floor also houses a family bathroom with one bedroom having its own en-suite shower room. The landing features bespoke built-in bookcases running from one end to the other.
Detached Stable Conversion | 2 Bedrooms | 2 Acres | Paddocks, Pond and Woodland
Some properties stop you in your tracks. Badgers Cottage is one of them and perfect for those who love country living, clean fresh air and a sunset worth raising a glass to.

Outside
Outside is where Badgers Cottage really comes into its own. The northwest-facing patio is a lovely spot for summer evenings and the grounds extend to around two acres in total. The land includes a principal paddock bounded by hedgerow and post and rail fencing, a smaller lawned paddock adjacent to the former stable block and a small area of woodland with a natural pond.
For anyone with equestrian interests or simply a desire for space, land and peace, it's difficult to overstate how rare this combination is.
But it’s worth thinking beyond the obvious here. With more people than ever choosing to live closer to the land and wanting to know where their food comes from, two acres of flat usable land opens up a genuinely exciting set of possibilities. Allotment waiting lists in most towns are years long - here you’d have your own vegetable patch as big as you want it. Keeping your own chickens has never been more popular and this space is perfect for a proper free-range setup with healthy wholesome eggs on your doorstep every morning. There’s room for beehives if that’s your thing and the grounds are equally brilliant for dogs and other pets who deserve more than a postage stamp of garden.
The land itself is flat and manageable. Keep it tidy and productive if that's your style or let it breathe and go a little wild - the pond and woodland already give it a beautiful natural edge and nature will do the rest if you let it. Either way it's genuinely lovely.
This is the kind of outside space that used to belong only to serious country estates. The fact that it comes with a characterful two-bedroom cottage makes it something quite special.
Planning permission
One more thing worth knowing. The property has planning permission in place for a rear extension - an infill design between the two existing walls that would create a beautiful additional living space perfectly positioned beneath a glass rooflight. Whether you use it as a reading room, a morning room or simply somewhere to sit and watch the clouds go by, it's a genuinely exciting opportunity to put your own stamp on the place from day one. Full permission details are available on request and a drawn visual can be found within the photographs.
Location
The local area is well served. The nearby villages of Audlem and Woore offer shops, pubs, cafés and community life in abundance. Audlem itself is a conservation village with a primary school rated Good by Ofsted and within the catchment for Brine Leas School and Sixth Form. For private education several schools including Ellesmere College and The Kings School run bus services from nearby Whitchurch. The market towns of Nantwich, Market Drayton, Newcastle-under-Lyme and Whitchurch are all within easy reach and Crewe station gives you London Euston in 90 minutes as well as easy access to the M6 motorway.
Our view
This well-loved home offers all the charm of countryside living with the practicalities modern life demands. Opportunities to live in this desirable area are rare - and with good reason. Come for the location, stay for the charm. Badgers Cottage is ready to welcome its next lucky owners.

Five things the owners will miss most
1. The quiet
A level of peace and quiet that most people have forgotten exists. No traffic, no noise, just birdsong, open sky and clean fresh air. It recharges you in a way that town living simply cannot.
2. The sunsets
Open to the sky, the sunsets here are something the owners have genuinely never tired of. Pinks and oranges rolling across open countryside with nothing in the way.
3. The land and the lifestyle it gives you
Two acres of flat and manageable ground with real potential - but beyond what it could become, it's the everyday simplicity of it that the owners love most. Walking outside with a morning coffee, eating breakfast in the fresh air, a glass of wine on the patio as the sun goes down. Inside and outside feel genuinely connected here in a way that is hard to find and easy to fall in love with.
4. Cosy, warm and easy to lock up and leave
Economical to run and comfortable throughout the year. When the travel bug strikes it's simple to lock up and go. It looks after itself.
5. The character of the place
The beams, the vaulted ceilings and the original brickwork give this cottage a warmth that visitors always notice and comment on. It is the kind of thing that is very hard to put your finger on but you feel it the moment you walk in.
