Uttoxeter Road, Checkley ST10

For those dreaming of a life where countryside views, equestrian potential and versatile living come together in perfect harmony, this exceptional three/four bedroom detached home set within a sprawling 6.83 acre plot offers a rare opportunity to embrace the very best of rural living, without sacrificing modern convenience. Positioned behind gates from the roadside and enjoying picturesque views across the neighbouring Staffordshire Moorlands countryside and towards Checkley Cricket Club, the property boasts an impressive collection of outbuildings and land, perfectly suited to equestrian use, small holding interests, business opportunities or multi-generational living.

The house itself is equally as impressive, blending spacious accommodation with beautiful rural outlooks from almost every room. A welcoming reception hallway sets the tone, with elegant glazed double doors opening into the superb living room, where a log burning stove creates a cosy focal point for those colder evenings, alongside a walk in box-bay window and French doors framing the stunning front-facing views. To the opposite side of the hallway, the generous dining room mirrors the same charming outlook with a living flame effect fireplace, creating a wonderful space for entertaining and family gatherings. The modern breakfast kitchen is fitted with wood effect shaker style cupboards, complementary worktops, a breakfast bar, built in oven and hob, alongside a stainless steel sink, perfectly combining practicality with country-inspired style. Beyond the kitchen is a useful boot room with access to the side garden, ideal for muddy boots, dogs or equestrian life, together with separate utility room and Guest WC. A handy cellar can be found through a cupboard within the hallway. Completing the ground floor is a further versatile reception room, currently arranged a sitting room but equally suited as a fourth bedroom, home office or play room depending on your individual requirements. Upstairs the property continues to excite with three generous double bedrooms, each enjoying far-reaching countryside views. The master bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobe space as well as a contemporary ensuite which offers not only walk in shower but a separate bath alongside vanity wash basin and WC. A modern shower room with enclosed shower serves the remaining bedrooms.

The grounds include a substantial barn or workshop, tack room, a brick built shed and four well-maintained fields ideal for grazing horses or livestock, all enclosed by mature hedging and fencing with traditional five-bar gates throughout. Adding further appeal is the detached brick annexe, previously operated as a successful dog grooming salon and currently retaining business rates, offering fantastic flexibility as a workspace, Airbnb opportunity, home business or potential accommodation for extended family, subject to necessary consents. For parking we have a large driveway perfect for multiple vehicles, no matter the size. Despite its idyllic rural setting, the property benefits from the convenience of mains gas and mains sewerage connections, a rare and valuable advantage for a home of this nature.
