Brimming with charm, character and a wealth of unique features, Fern Cottage is a delightful four-bedroom semi-detached cottage occupying an enviable elevated position in the highly sought-after village of Acton Trussell.
Offered to the market with no upward chain, this wonderful home enjoys far-reaching rural views, generous family accommodation and an abundance of personality throughout.
Acton Trussell is one of Staffordshire's most highly regarded villages, renowned for its picturesque surroundings and welcoming community.
Within walking distance is the acclaimed Moat House, an excellent restaurant and hotel, while commuters will appreciate the convenient access to Junction 13 of the M6, together with the nearby market towns of Stafford and Penkridge.
The accommodation begins with an entrance hallway leading to a practical ground floor shower room.
The living room is centred around an attractive log-burning stove, creating the perfect place to relax, while the kitchen is complemented by a useful utility room.
A separate dining room enjoys French doors opening onto the courtyard, making it ideal for entertaining, and a substantial sunroom with inset downlights provides an impressive additional reception space flooded with natural light.
To the first floor are four generous double bedrooms.
The exceptional main bedroom offers a luxurious retreat, complete with a walk-in wardrobe and a beautifully appointed en-suite featuring both a bath and separate shower, enhanced by exposed brickwork that adds warmth and character.
A truly outstanding feature is the adjoining sunroom, where breathtaking far-reaching countryside views can be enjoyed throughout the seasons - an incredibly rare addition that makes Fern Cottage unlike any other.
A further shower room serves the remaining bedrooms.
Outside, Fern Cottage continues to impress with a generous driveway providing ample off-road parking, a detached double garage and a private rear garden, offering the perfect setting to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
Combining character, versatile living space and an enviable village location, Fern Cottage presents a rare opportunity to own a home that's every bit as special as its setting.
