Holding a prime setting within a walled west facing garden plot is Newark House, an exceptional Grade II Listed detached Georgian residence offering generously proportioned interiors, four good sized bedrooms plus second floor accommodation and a pretty outlook over the village Church.
Having been thoughtfully renovated in recent years, Newark House offers an excellent layout and functional interiors ideal to suit a growing family, with planning permission in place for a re-build of the former Orangery and outbuilding. Original features have been beautifully retained throughout including marble fireplaces, intricate coving, original doors and architraves and a variety of flagstone, quarry tiled and brick flooring, complemented by immaculate yet traditional refurbishments to include a bespoke kitchen, column radiators and a loft conversion to create a fifth bedroom and study.
From the front, an elegant pillared porch leads to the entrance and reception hallways, where panel doors open into two formal reception rooms, a further playroom and the breakfast kitchen. Functional rooms include a boot room with pantry, a laundry room and a cloakroom, and stairs lead down to an expansive cellar with raised thralls offering an excellent storage space. To the first floor there are four well proportioned bedrooms sharing use of two family bathrooms, with a second floor conversion offering an optional fifth bedroom and a useful study.
Outside, the west facing walled garden overlooks tranquil Church views, with brick outbuildings offering useful storage and a former vine house being a fabulous entertaining space. There is also
planning in place for the vine house to be converted into additional living accommodation. Double electric gates open into the sweeping gravel driveway, an electric door opens into the double garage, and lawned gardens enjoying a sunny westerly aspect extend to the fore of Newark House. This exquisite Grade II Listed home is serviced by mains gas central heating, having received a new boiler,
pressurised water cylinder and radiators, as well as a full re-wire.
Newark House resides in an enviable position close to the heart of Barton under Needwood, being within an easy walk of the village centre and the excellent array of amenities offered. Centred around the handsome High Street are coffee shops, gift shops, a post office, pubs, a Co-op, pharmacy, GP surgery, dental practice and a stunning Tudor church. Holland Sports club lies off Efflinch Lane and plays host to an array of sporting activities for all ages including rugby, football, cricket, tennis and more.
The property lies in a highly regarded catchment area for both state and independent schools. Thomas Russell Infants and Junior Schools are situated within the village and feed into the highly regarded John Taylor Secondary, all of which maintain an Ofsted ‘Outstanding’ rating, and the John Taylor Free School is also nearby at around 4 miles distance.
With rolling Staffordshire countryside on the property’s doorstep, there are many rural walks accessible from the property over the nearby Dunstall Estate, with leisure facilities including Hoar Cross Hall, The Deer Park Farm Shop and the FA’s St George’s Park all being within a few minute’s drive.
