Description

A rare chance to purchase your very own piece of English history located at the heart of this popular Staffordshire Village. Reputedly the 'second oldest' dwelling in the village, Alley Thatch is a stunning example of a detached 17th Century architecture with the timber frame and thatched design thankfully preserved by its Grade II listing. Offered for sale with no onward chain and the rare reassurance of a newly thatched roof only a year old. The canal side location is straight out of the pages of Wind In The Willows with the garden extending all the way down to the canal where you will find a peaceful patio seating area complete with summer house. The internal accommodation boasts a wealth of original features throughout and offers a living/dining room with inglenook fireplace and log burner, a kitchen and a period style bathroom on the ground floor and two bedrooms and a landing on the first floor. Externally there is the rare benefit of extensive off street parking, substantial patio seating area wrapping around the house, established lawned garden and that second patio adjacent to the canal with a pretty summer house with power.

Viewing is essential to appreciate the inherent historic charm of this delightful home and its convenient proximity to local shops and amenities. John Taylor catchment.
