Offered with the benefit of no upward chain is Seven Stars and Seven Stars Barn, a characterful three bedroom cottage plus one bedroom annexe residing within the historic Staffordshire village of Wall. Showcasing a wealth of original and reclaimed character throughout, Seven Stars boasts a rich history within the area, having formerly served as the village coaching Inn until 1929 prior to its refurbishment in the 1990s.
In part, the property dates back to the 1700s and is finished with quarry tiled and exposed wood floors, traditional fittings and thoughtful styling reflecting the traditional period, being set beyond an electric gated entrance with ample parking and garaging to the rear aspect. Both the cottage and barn have been remodelled extensively by the existing vendors to create an exquisite and well proportioned rural home in addition to the annexe which offers extended accommodation to the main cottage, an annexe for a dependent relative, or the potential as for use as a home office suite or Air BnB style rental. There is also potential to convert the integrated garage/workshop into additional living accommodation, subject to relevant permissions.
Seven Stars
Approaching from the rear aspect, a private drive servicing just three properties leads to double electric gates opening into an expansive gravel driveway, leading into both the cottage and barn. There are delightfully secluded courtyard gardens to the rear of the cottage, and both an integral garage/workshop and further detached oak framed garage offer exterior storage or further car parking.
Facing onto Watling Street, The Seven Stars features a deceptively charming cottage frontage with the original entrance door opening into the sitting room, a characterful reception room having an original inglenook with inset wood burner set to a Staffordshire blue brick and tiled hearth. A snug is also set to the front having a feature bar area as a tribute to the former Inn, and a farmhouse style dining and living kitchen with Aga is set to the rear, having access into a hallway and cloakroom with utility space. From the wrap around landing there are three excellent double bedrooms, each featuring impressive vaulted ceilings and having use of a guest en suite, family bathroom and further dressing room/en suite with a quirky mezzanine bedroom area above.
Seven Stars Barn
Seven Stars Barn extends over a single level, being an ideal Air BnB/rental, annexe for a dependent relative or as the base for a home run business. The impressive reception hall with glazed apex leads into an open plan living and dining kitchen, double bedroom and shower room, with a paved terrace providing independent outside space also.
Wall, Staffordshire
The pretty village of Wall lies within picturesque Staffordshire countryside in an area of historical importance known for its Roman settlement and staging post. Within the village is a historic church and The Trooper, a popular pub and restaurant with an excellent reputation being within a few minutes’ walk of Seven Stars. Comprehensive facilities can be found in nearby Lichfield (five miles away) where a shopping centre, supermarkets, the renowned Cathedral, the Garrick Theatre and Beacon Park can all be found. A bus service provides links to Lichfield, Stonnall and Shenstone and there are regular intercity rail links from Lichfield’s Trent Valley and City train stations to Birmingham and London (in 80 minutes). The location is well placed for commuter links including the A5, M6 Toll and the A38, and the international airports of Birmingham and Manchester are both within an easy drive.
