Staffordshire country house with woodland

Warren Hill was built in 1937 and is a well-built property; its attractive elevations and large windows are reminiscent of a Voysey style.

Accommodation is filled with character and the reception rooms are very attractive. The reception hall has an oak floor and impressive views over the garden; a fine drawing room has a large stone open fireplace while its large bay window to the south enjoys garden views, while the dining room has a stone fireplace and oak book shelves, and the sitting room leads off from the kitchen making this part of the house great for everyday living.

The kitchen itself has hand-painted decorative tiles behind picturing Warren Hill.

On the first floor the master bedroom suite has a large en-suite bathroom with cast iron roll top bath and a full length of wardrobes, and enjoys southerly views over the garden through its large windows.

The four other bedrooms are all doubles and enjoy impressive outlooks. They share a family bathroom which is fully fitted with a shower and separate bath.

Together, gardens and grounds come to just under ten acres.
