Welcome to Jasmine Cottage, a beautifully presented three-bedroom cottage nestled in the charming village of Church Eaton, where character comes as standard, village life is part of the package, and the property is all ready to move into. Dating back with plenty of traditional charm, Jasmine Cottage combines character features with thoughtful updates, including a newly fitted roof using as many of the original tiles as possible, rewiring, new kitchen and downstairs flooring with downstairs damp proofing completed where required. With three generous double bedrooms, a characterful living space, updated kitchen, private courtyard and two parking spaces, this is a home that offers plenty of charm without asking its next owner to take on a lengthy renovation project. In other words, the character is original; the peace of mind is an added extra.

Step through the front door and you're immediately welcomed into the charming living area, where slate flooring sets the scene beautifully. A feature fireplace provides a characterful focal point, while dual-aspect windows overlooking the front allow natural light to brighten the room. The staircase rises neatly to the first floor, adding to the traditional cottage feel. And beneath all that character, the practical work has been taken care of. The property has been rewired, while the original beams in the roof have all been treated for woodworm. Downstairs, full damp proofing has also been carried out where required. Flow through into the updated kitchen, where the slate flooring continues beneath your feet. An array of cream Shaker-style cabinetry is paired with complementary marble-effect worktops, creating a timeless look that feels right at home within this character property. The flooring has also been updated, giving the kitchen a fresh and practical finish. There's space for a breakfast dining setup, making this a lovely spot for everything from morning coffee to leisurely weekend brunches. Useful storage sits just off the kitchen, while a side door and window provide access and views towards the courtyard.

Head upstairs and discover three generous double bedrooms, each offering its own character and plenty of room to relax. All three bedrooms benefit from large windows, fresh carpeting underfoot and traditional doors and handles that continue the cottage's period feel. Bedrooms two and three also offer access to the loft spaces, while additional built-in storage can be found from the landing. And when it comes to storage, the lofts aren't just a case of mind your head and hope for the best, both loft spaces are boarded and insulated, providing genuinely useful additional space. The family bathroom is a clean and timeless space, featuring a full-size bath with shower over, WC, wash hand basin and towel radiator.

Step outside from the kitchen and you'll find your own courtyard, offering a low-maintenance outdoor space with patio underfoot. It's the perfect little spot for morning coffees, alfresco lunches or an evening drink. To the front of the property, you'll also find a useful shed and two parking spaces, giving Jasmine Cottage a practical edge to match its undeniable charm. Above it all, the property now benefits from a newly fitted roof, with as many of the original tiles retained as possible, preserving the cottage's character while giving its new owners one less thing to worry about.

Set within the picturesque village of Church Eaton, Jasmine Cottage offers the opportunity to embrace a quieter pace of life while remaining conveniently positioned for everyday amenities. The village also benefits from a well-regarded local school, making the location particularly appealing for families. Nearby Gnosall provides further amenities, while Stafford is within easy reach for additional shopping, schooling, dining and transport connections. So you can enjoy the peace and personality of village living without feeling like you've been sent to the middle of nowhere.

With its three double bedrooms, character fireplaces and beams, updated kitchen, private courtyard, two parking spaces and useful loft storage, Jasmine Cottage has plenty to recommend it. Better still, many of the important jobs have already been taken care of, including rewiring, beam treatment, downstairs damp proofing where needed, insulation and boarding to both lofts, updated flooring and a new roof retaining as many original tiles as possible. It's cosy without feeling cramped, characterful without being fussy and practical without sacrificing its personality.

A little cottage with a lot of charm and with much of the hard work done, Jasmine Cottage is ready to blossom with its next owner. Give us a call today to book your viewing - 01785 851886.
