The Old Rectory, Rectory Gardens, Admaston, Rugeley, WS15 3NL

Beautifully positioned, this exceptional and generously proportioned ground-floor apartment forms part of a magnificently restored Georgian rectory, offering an exquisite blend of historic grandeur and refined contemporary living.

Boasting two spacious double bedrooms and tranquil south-facing private garden, this elegant residence retains a wealth of original architectural features, including decorative panelling, ornate coving, detailed door architraves, and impressive sash windows complete with charming original window seats.

Surrounded by breath-taking Staffordshire countryside, the setting is both peaceful and picturesque.

The apartment is accessed via a striking pillared entrance leading into Friary House, an exclusive building serving just four residences.

Inside, a stunning oak-carved staircase sets an immediate tone of grandeur, while a private stained-glass doorway welcomes you into Apartment Murray.

From the moment you enter, the home exudes timeless Georgian character, with soaring ceilings, elegant pillars, intricate mouldings, and striking checkerboard flooring creating an atmosphere of refined sophistication.

The magnificent drawing room occupies the bay of the original rectory, forming an impressive yet inviting reception space.

Featuring bespoke fitted storage, an electric fireplace, and large sash windows with window seats, it provides the perfect vantage point from which to admire the beautifully landscaped gardens.

French doors open directly onto the private garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.

The bright and spacious kitchen is beautifully appointed with handcrafted solid units, granite worktops, and a full range of integrated appliances including fridge, freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine — perfectly designed for both everyday living and entertaining.

The principal bedroom is a wonderfully light and peaceful retreat, overlooking the idyllic gardens and offering extensive fitted storage.

Its luxurious private bathroom is superbly appointed with twin marble-set washbasins, vanity units, WC, bidet, and a double-ended bath, complemented by elegant tiling, decorative panelling, a heated towel rail, and abundant natural light from a side sash window.

The second bedroom is equally generous in size and filled with natural light, featuring a front-facing sash window and a cleverly designed walk-in wardrobe.

A stylish additional shower room serves guests and residents alike, complete with vanity-mounted washbasin, WC, bidet, double shower with tiled splashbacks, and heated towel rail.

Outside, the private south-facing garden offers a truly serene retreat.

Accessed from the drawing room, stone steps lead to an expansive paved terrace, beyond which lie beautifully maintained lawns enclosed by characterful walled and fenced boundaries.

The garden provides exceptional privacy and a wonderfully secluded setting in which to enjoy the surrounding landscape.

The Old Rectory sits in over three acres of the wider Blithfield Estate, approached via a private driveway through mature woodland, with spectacular countryside views extending towards Blithfield Reservoir.

The estate itself is renowned for its carefully restored character properties and its uniquely peaceful setting. Despite its idyllic rural surroundings, the property enjoys excellent convenience.

The charming village of Abbots Bromley is just a five-minute drive away, offering shops, public houses, and a village café, while more extensive amenities can be found in Rugeley, Uttoxeter, and the Cathedral City of Lichfield.

The catchment areas for schooling include the St. Mary’s Church of England Primary School in the nearby village of Colton and Heart School Rugeley.

Blithfield Reservoir provides sailing and angling opportunities, and several excellent golf courses are nearby.

The property is superbly connected, with easy access to the A50, M1, M6, and M42, and direct rail services from Lichfield providing convenient links to Birmingham and London.

Further benefits include a double garage, allocated parking, and additional visitor parking set within mature woodland.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional Georgian residence in one of Staffordshire’s most prestigious and peaceful settings — a home of elegance, character, and timeless appeal.
