A spacious utility room offers plumbing for a washing machine, access to the rear garden, and a versatile study—ideal for working from home.

A side passage provides access to the private rear garden, which includes a lawn, paved patio, and mature plant borders, creating a serene outdoor space.
Locality - Stanton is a picturesque village nestled near the Weaver Hills in Staffordshire, near the Derbyshire border. This rural locality is characterised by its scenic landscapes, with rolling hills, lush green fields, and charming stone cottages that reflect its rich history. Stanton enjoys a tranquil setting, offering a peaceful retreat from the bustle of urban life while still being within easy reach of nearby towns of Ashbourne & Leek. The village is surrounded by natural beauty, with the Weaver Hills providing a stunning backdrop and opportunities for walking, hiking, and enjoying panoramic views of the Staffordshire countryside. The community in Stanton is close-knit, with a strong sense of local identity and pride in preserving the village's heritage and serene atmosphere.
Owner's perspective - "The Shop Cottage has been our lovely family home for over 25 years. It looked very different when we first saw it, but we knew when we got out of the car that first day and all we could hear was bird song, that it was exactly what we were looking for.
Built in the 1700s, it’s been a pleasure to live here through the seasons – in summer it’s cool and in winter, sitting in front of the fire, the cottage is a warm and cosy. We (and our cats and hens) have loved the gardens – the rear garden backs onto open fields and is so peaceful, especially on a summer’s evening. The front garden has a perfect sunny corner, to enjoy the sun whatever time of year. The winter sunsets are beautiful.
Stanton is a friendly village, with lots of events and get-togethers at the hall and whoever buys Shop Cottage will be inheriting lovely neighbours, who we will miss very much. Our next door neighbour has access through the back of the garden, but rarely uses it and is very discreet when he does.
There are so many local walks from the front door – in the spring the bluebells in Dydon Wood are stunning and Thorswood Nature Reserve with its beautiful views, is perfect for a Sunday afternoon walk. But now it’s time for us to move on and we hope the cottage’s new owners will enjoy living here, as much as we have."
