Keepers Cottage is a truly special detached cottage, perfectly positioned in a tranquil and rural setting just moments from the enchanting National Trust Downs Banks. Surrounded by beautiful countryside, rolling hills, peaceful walks, and a babbling brook, this charming home feels wonderfully tucked away—yet is still just a peaceful stroll or short drive from Stone’s vibrant market town centre, with its wide selection of restaurants, bars, shops, schools, and even a theatre. Inside you’ll find the heart of the home, an open-plan kitchen/diner with a contemporary L-shaped kitchen, designed with stylish cabinetry, plenty of room for essentials, a spacious dining area and a seamless flow into the lounge. A traditional brick-inset fireplace forms a natural focal point, and twin sets of French doors open out to the garden, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor feel. A further reception room awaits with bright bifolding doors leading out to blissful countryside views, and a glowing log burner promises the perfect place to unwind, entertain, or simply take in the scenery. A separate utility room and WC complete the ground floor. Upstairs is home to a generously sized master double bedroom with its own private South-facing balcony overlooking the uninterrupted countryside. Three further double bedrooms, one of which includes its own fitted wardrobes, and a modern bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath and a separate shower ensure plenty of space for busy family living.

And just when you think you’ve found it all, the outside reveals even more. Situated in a fully South-facing setting, you’ll find a heated outdoor pool and further gardens providing panoramic views and space that is perfect for entertaining friends and family. The property features two generously sized driveways, including one with electric gated entry. But like any treasure worth finding, there’s more: a versatile studio with its own shower room offers exciting potential as a fully self-contained annex that is perfect for multi-generational living (STNPP). This lovely home also offers solar panels which generate an index-linked income via the Feed-in Tariff. Keepers Cottage sits in an enviable directly South-facing position that ensures full sunrise and sunset views. While it feels secluded, you’re only a leisurely stroll from the Downs Banks, the Trent and Mersey Canal, and the hustle and bustle of Stone town centre, where shops, schools, supermarkets, eateries and much more await. Plus, you’ll find an array of transport links, including the A34, A51, and Stone train station nearby. Here you can enjoy the peace of rural living without ever being far from everyday convenience. This isn’t just a house. It’s a rare discovery, a forever home waiting to be claimed. And as the saying goes… Finders Keepers.
