Description

No upward chain - An exceptional opportunity for a truly gorgeous and substantial four bedroom cottage, occupying a particularly impressive plot within the ever-sought-after Longdon Green, just a short distance from the popular Longdon Hall School.

Nestled in the heart of rural Staffordshire, Longdon Green is a picturesque hamlet offering a tranquil countryside lifestyle with the benefit of excellent connectivity. Steeped in history, the village retains much of its traditional charm, with its leafy green at the centre and an array of character properties reflecting its heritage as a longstanding agricultural community.

Longdon Green lies just a short drive from the historic cathedral city of Lichfield, which is approximately six miles to the south. Lichfield provides a wide range of amenities, including boutique shops, restaurants, reputable schools, and excellent transport links to London, Birmingham and beyond via its two railway stations and easy access to the A38 and M6 Toll.

Surrounded by open fields and woodland, those who enjoy walking, cycling, or simply immersing themselves in the natural beauty of the Staffordshire countryside will feel right at home in this equestrian style property.

With its unique blend of historic character, serene surroundings, and proximity to vibrant urban centres, Longdon Green is an incredible choice for those seeking the charm of rural village life without sacrificing accessibility.

The property is believed to date back as far as the 1400's, and was originally two cottages, adjoined in the 1950's to create this spectacular family home. An abundance of character is complimented by consistently tasteful interiors (showcasing original wooden oak cottage doors) and plenty of living and bedroom space across two floors, whilst incredible idyllic gardens feature a large stable block and a superb paddock, measuring approximately two acres.
