Situation - Salthouse Farm stands in a semi rural position just to the south of Werrington, within easy reach of regional centres and major lines of communication. It is a short drive into the towns of Stoke on Trent, Stone, Uttoxeter and Stafford, all of which offer a comprehensive range of business, shopping and leisure amenities. Birmingham is about 45 miles distant, whilst Manchester and Chester are both 60 miles away. Trains from Stafford take approximately 1 hour 25 minutes to London Euston and trains from Stoke on Trent take 45 minutes to Manchester. Werrington offers local everyday shopping such as chemist, doctor, post office, butcher, library and supermarket.

Preparatory schools in the area include Yarlet School and St Bede’s School (Bishton). Other independent schools include St Dominic’s Priory school (Stone) and Newcastle under Lyme School/Orme House. There is a good selection of state schools locally in Stoke, Leek and Werrington. Places of interest close by include Rudyard Lake, Trentham Gardens, Alton Towers and the Hanchurch Hills. The Peak District is easily reached with the charming town of Ashbourne only 17 miles to the north east.

Description - Salthouse Farm dates back to the late 1800’s. Built of stone and brick under a tiled roof, it has been extended over the years and was a working farm until the early 1990’s, it now presents a modern family home.

The accommodation in the house is well laid out for family living. There are three good reception rooms on the ground floor along with a spacious kitchen/breakfast room, conservatory and games room. The drawing room and sitting room have open fireplaces and the drawing room which is situated on the south side of the house, has French doors opening to the patio and garden.

The kitchen/breakfast room has been beautifully fitted with hand painted cream base and wall units. Appliances include a Britannia double oven with halogen hob, two fridges, dishwasher, microwave and water filter. Adjacent to the kitchen is the utility room, well fitted with storage cupboards along with a sink unit and plumbing for a washing machine. The back door opens to the courtyard.

Glazed double doors open from the kitchen to the conservatory which has wonderful views and in turn has French doors opening to an attractive round terrace on the east side of the house. Off the conservatory is the games room which has double doors opening to the courtyard and a staircase rises to a study / sitting room / bedroom. Also on the ground floor is a generous double bedroom and bathroom. Under the dining room is a vaulted cellar housing the boiler.

On the first floor the master suite comprises a double bedroom with wonderful views to the south and east along with an ensuite shower room and dressing room with fitted hanging and shelved cupboards, drawers and eaves storage. There are two further double bedrooms, a family bathroom and an airing cupboard housing the hot water cylinder.

Directly across the courtyard, to the north of the house, is the Coach House. The ground floor consists of a large open plan kitchen and living room, with modern facilities and underfloor heating throughout. Beyond the kitchen/living room is a bedroom, utility and downstairs shower room with WC. The first floor consists of three bedrooms serviced by a family bathroom.

Gardens And Grounds - The gardens and grounds are well laid out to combine amenity with functionality, all benefitting from the far-reaching views. The main garden is to the south of the house and a large stone terrace area has been created to the front of the house. Beyond is an expansive lawn area planted with well stocked herbaceous borders and specimen trees, running down to the stocked pond.

There is a further garden to the rear of the Coach House with a large expanse of lawn and patio close to the building.

Equestrian Facilities - The principal building is a steel portal framed building with concrete brickwork behind cedar cladding and corrugated roof. This building has a central passage with 8 large stables to either side. There is an added lean-to with three further stables and a tack/feed room.

These facilities have been used as a commercial DIY livery with strong occupancy levels.

Kennels - The existing owners have developed the outbuildings into a luxury, 5* rated boarding kennels. The facilities include 12 air-conditioned boarding kennels, day-care facilities, on site grooming and freedom parks, including a 1-acre fully fenced walking field.

The site is fully automated with CCTV, fire alarms and sensory equipment.

The facilities have been awarded the highest rating possible from the Animal Licencing Authority, meaning the kennels are one of the best in the area. All bookings for the facilities are automated through the website and a full list of kennel features are shown at .

The existing owners are willing to help a potential buyer with all licencing required to carry out the business and the purchase of websites and any software will be discussed as part of the overall negotiation.

Land - The main area of land surrounds the house and kennels on three sides and equates to approximately 23.39 acres with one field on the other side of Salters Lane. The land is all down to grass and is used for the kennel and livery businesses.

There is also a stocked fishing pond.
