Description

If you’ve ever fancied a home where life feels a little more farm-tastic, Standon Farm is ready to welcome you with open gates and NO UPWARD CHAIN! Built in 1890 and having faithfully served three generations of cattle farmers, this remarkable six-bedroom, four-bathroom home now offers a rare chance to reap what you sow, a lifestyle rich in space, character and countryside charm, all set within an impressive approx 6-acre plot. This isn’t just a home, it’s a whole homestead, complete with stables, agricultural storage, a double two-storey garage and a sprawling field ready for whatever plans you’d like to cultivate.

Step through the front door into a charming tiled entrance hall, your first taste of the home’s heritage. To the left, a practical boot room stands ready for muddy wellies and post-walk clean-ups, while ahead, original double doors swing open into the main living space, setting the tone for what lies beyond. At the heart of the home sits the expansive kitchen diner, a space that truly earns its title as the engine room of the farm. With stylish cabinetry, quartz worktops, a range-style cooker, and integrated appliances, it’s perfectly equipped whether you’re whipping up a quick bite or hosting a full-on feast. A walk-in pantry ensures you’ll never be short on storage, while the generous dining area and French doors to the garden make entertaining feel as easy as a summer harvest. The formal dining room offers further access to the garden and connects seamlessly to the utility room, cloakroom, and two of the three sitting rooms, keeping everything flowing as smoothly as a well-run farmyard. The utility room itself is full of rustic charm, with green cabinetry, wooden worktops, and a classic Belfast sink, practicality with a nod to tradition. Three separate living/sitting rooms provide ample space for everyone to spread out, each featuring either a fireplace or log burner, perfect for keeping the home fires burning on cooler evenings. Two versatile study rooms offer flexibility for modern living, home offices, hobby rooms, or even additional bedrooms if needed. The primary study also benefits from access to a second staircase leading upstairs, adding a touch of farmhouse practicality. And just when you think you’ve seen it all, there’s even a cellar, ideal for storage or perhaps something a little more creative.

Head up via one of the two staircases to discover five generous double bedrooms, three bathrooms, and an additional WC, plenty of room for family, guests, and the occasional overnight visitor who simply doesn’t want to leave. The principal bedroom is a crop above the rest, featuring a spacious sleeping area, a walk-in dressing room lined with built-in cabinetry, and a private ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom also enjoys its own ensuite, while the remaining three bedrooms are all well-sized doubles, offering flexibility for growing families or visiting guests. The family bathroom is a standout feature, generous in size and style, complete with checkerboard flooring, a freestanding bathtub, dual sinks, and a separate shower. It’s the perfect place to soak away the day after time spent outdoors. Throughout the home, original doors and fireplaces remain, adding character and a tangible connection to the property’s farming roots.

Adding even more versatility, the property includes a single-storey annexe, ideal for multigenerational living, guest accommodation, or even rental potential. Inside, you’ll find an open-plan kitchen diner, a comfortable living room, and a double bedroom with its own ensuite, your very own little independent pasture.

Step outside and you’ll find a generous main garden, blooming with lawn, mature trees, shrubs, a pond, and a patio seating area, perfect for soaking up the surroundings. For equestrian or agricultural use, the property truly earns its spurs. A stable block houses seven stone-built stables along with a store area, all benefiting from their own private driveway, plus water and electricity, making day-to-day life that bit easier. Beyond the garden lies a substantial paddock, offering endless possibilities, whether for grazing animals, hobby farming, or simply enjoying your own slice of open land. Conveniently located between the house and field, the stables make moving between spaces as smooth as a well-trodden path. To the front, a gated driveway and impressive two-storey double garage provide ample parking and exciting potential for further use, be it storage, workshops, or future development.

Situated in Standon, the property offers the peace and privacy of rural living while remaining within easy reach of Eccleshall, where you’ll find a range of local amenities, schools, and transport links. It’s the perfect balance, letting you live the good life without feeling cut off.
