Description

Approached along a regal avenue driveway is Brookfields, an exceptional barn conversion nestled within manicured ground totalling 2 acres on the idyllic borders of this sought after Staffordshire village. Presenting magnificent open plan living, a wealth of character and five bedrooms, Brookfields resides within this premier collection of rural homes and conversions, enjoying secluded and extensive private outside space alongside open rural views. The versatile layout offers accommodation to suit a growing family, multigenerational living and an impressive venue for entertaining, with oversized interiors complemented by vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and traditional finishings. Sliding doors extend across the barn overlooking the established and immaculately tended formal gardens, with a large paddock home to a variety of specimen trees and a topiary-lined avenue driveway enjoying views over the grounds and to countryside beyond.

This exquisite countryside home showcases all the appeal of a character residence without the constraints of a listed status. The windows and doors have been replaced with aluminium double glazing, and a range of Solar Panels including three batteries have been installed to encourage reasonable running costs. EV charging points in the garages are included in the sale, the barn has private drainage and an oil boiler and replaced pressurised water cylinder provide the hot water and central heating.

Brookfields lies on the idyllic borders of the prestigious village of Elford, set along a secluded lane home to a handful of luxurious countryside homes and agricultural estates. The barn combines the ideals of a delightful rural setting with convenient access to local amenities and nearby commuter connections.

Being within a healthy walk of the Elford village centre, Brookfields is part of a thriving and desirable local community nestled withing idyllic Staffordshire countryside. Eflord is home to amenities including cricket, bowls and football clubs, The Crown public house, a village hall and a highly regarded primary school. Also within the village are the Elford Hall Gardens, a community funded project which includes a sensory garden and mature grounds centred around the two and a half acre walled garden where vegetable plots are maintained by village residents. Elford is positioned beside the River Mease, with rural and riverside walks easily accessible from the property’s doorstep.

excellent secondary schools can be found nearby, including Lichfield Cathedral and Twycross, with the John Taylor Free School also being within a short drive. The village primary school feeds into Rawlett Secondary in Tamworth.

Elford lies within picturesque Staffordshire countryside mid-way between Tamworth, with its range of shops and amenities such as Venture Retail Park and the Snow Dome Leisure Centre, and the Cathedral City of Lichfield, with its regular public train and bus links to various destinations.
