A stunning 17th century farmhouse filled with original features and country
charm, nestled inside beautiful gardens and a rural backdrop.
**Historic Charm Within A Rural Setting**
On the fringes of the picturesque village of Wetley Rocks which has convenient
access to the A50 and M6, stands Rownall Farm, a beautiful stone Staffordshire
longhouse dating back to the late 17th century. Although it was rebuilt stone
by stone around 20 years ago, it retains all its quintessential charm. Packed
to the rafters with original features such as stone flooring, exposed stone,
brickwork and wooden beams, you immediately feel the history coursing through
each room.
The building has been lovingly and sympathetically restored and period
features rub shoulders with modern conveniences, allowing you to enjoy the
benefits of both old and new.
On approaching Rownall Farm from its meandering driveway; the leafy gardens
and sprawling views quite literally take your breath away. The only thing
separating you from the idyllic Staffordshire countryside is the charming
stone walls. This really is one of the most picturesque settings for rural
living.
**Characterful Features**
As you enter the main building from the front entrance, you’re greeted with
characterful features. On your left is the adorable kitchen. Imagine exposed
brick walls, beamed ceiling, Belfast sink and a stable door that leads out
onto a patio area and rear garden – everything you’d expect from a farmhouse
kitchen. Open the door to draw gorgeous countryside views inside as you rustle
up something delicious for the family.
Return past the entrance door to access the dining room where a brick
fireplace and wood burner grab your attention. This is an intimate and cosy
space for dining with friends and family, especially during the winter with
the crackling wood fire.
An inner hallway leads you to the utility room and the lounge, which is tucked
away at the other end of the property. This is perfect for quiet evenings when
you want to escape any stresses of the day.
**Rooms With A View**
Step up to the first floor via the wooden staircase which sweeps past a
mullion window frame and chunky wooden lintel. You’ll find two gorgeous
bedrooms which are spacious and light with heavenly views across the gardens
and fields. Wooden flooring and exposed beamed ceilings enhance the calm and
peaceful ambience. There’s also a comfortable reading room/study which can
double up as an extra bedroom. While one of the bedrooms features an ensuite
shower room, a larger family bathroom with a freestanding, clawfoot bath
serves the other rooms.
A further staircase leads you up to the second floor where you have another
three attic rooms, which can be used either as additional bedrooms, office
space or gym.
**The Perfect Hideaway**
Adjacent to the main building is a detached double garage with separate access
from the side door leading into a fully equipped fitted kitchen and shower
room. From here, climb the staircase to the first floor where a huge space
spans the entirety of the garage. Owing to its size, private access and
current facilities, this would make a fabulous self - contained dwelling either
for older children or relatives.
While the upstairs space could become a large bedroom, the downstairs garage
could be converted into a lounge area (subject to planning permission). As it
already benefits from heating and power, it should be relatively
straightforward to convert.
What makes Rownall Farm even more exceptional are its well - maintained gardens.
The 1. 5 acres are fringed by lush shrubs and mature trees that frame bucolic
views. There’s also a pony paddock and a thriving vegetable patch, ideal for
anyone with green fingers who enjoys pottering in the garden.
