A charming countryside home offering character, space and exciting potential for transformation.

Positioned along the desirable Mill Lane and surrounded by open countryside, Newstead is a delightful three-bedroom detached home set within a truly picturesque setting. While the property would now benefit from modernisation throughout, it presents an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking a home with genuine scope to update, enhance and create something truly special.

Entered via a welcoming front porch, the property immediately reveals its personality with an attractive entrance hall featuring original solid parquet flooring. To the left, the spacious living room enjoys character bay windows and a feature fireplace, creating a warm and inviting main reception space. Beyond this, the kitchen provides a practical layout with integrated cooking appliances and benefits from a separate utility room, walk-in pantry and guest WC. A bright and airy sunroom flows from the kitchen, filling the space with natural light and offering uninterrupted views across the gardens and surrounding countryside.

To the right of the hallway sits a generous separate dining room with charming windows and period features, offering excellent space for entertaining or family gatherings. The rear section of the home provides three well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which are generous doubles with built-in wardrobes and dual-aspect windows overlooking the rear garden. Bedroom three is a versatile room currently used as a study but equally suited as a nursery, guest bedroom or home office. A bright family bathroom with bath and walk-in shower serves the bedroom accommodation.

Further enhancing the property’s appeal is the substantial loft space which, subject to the necessary planning permissions and building regulations, offers exciting potential for dormer conversion and the creation of additional living accommodation.

Externally, the mature gardens and open countryside views perfectly complement the character of the home, offering privacy, tranquillity and a wonderful backdrop for future landscaping or outdoor living improvements.

A long tarmac driveway leads from Mill Lane directly to the garage and extends across the front of the property, providing ample off-road parking for approximately four to five vehicles.

Mill Lane enjoys a desirable semi-rural setting within the ST21 area, offering a wonderful balance of countryside surroundings and convenient access to local amenities. Nearby Eccleshall provides a range of independent shops, cafés, schooling options and everyday services, while larger centres such as Stafford are easily accessible by road. The surrounding countryside offers excellent walking routes and a peaceful environment, making the location particularly appealing to buyers seeking a lifestyle property with the opportunity to modernise and add value.

Anti-Money Laundering & Id Checks

Once an offer is accepted on a property marketed by Dourish & Day estate agents we are required to complete id verification checks on all buyers and to apply ongoing monitoring until the transaction ends. Whilst this is the responsibility of Dourish & Day we may use the services of MoveButler or Guild365, to verify Clients’ identity. This is not a credit check and therefore will have no effect on your credit history. You agree for us to complete these checks, and the cost of these checks is £30.00 inc. VAT per buyer. This is paid in advance, when an offer is agreed and prior to a sales memorandum being issued. This charge is non-refundable.

The property is set back from Mill Lane and benefits from a defined frontage, creating privacy from the road. The front garden offers scope for landscaping enhancement, while the driveway provides convenient access to the garage and main entrance.

Rear Garden

The rear garden enjoys a peaceful and private setting with open countryside views beyond. A generous lawn is complemented by mature trees, established borders and a paved seating terrace ideal for outdoor dining. A greenhouse and wooden shed add practicality, while the overall setting creates a wonderfully tranquil outdoor space.
