Dating from the 1930s, the house has an abundance of charming character, retaining a wealth of original features including many oak block floors, oak doors and plaster friezes.
The spacious and adaptable accommodation offers excellent opportunities for extensions not least within the extensive roof void (subject to planning permission). This property is very conveniently located, having a semi-rural position situated on Rough Close Common with lovely views over the common and adjoining farmland. The house is within 10 minutes' drive from access to the A50, within easy reach of M6 motorway at Junction 15. The University Hospital Stoke is also less than 30 minutes' drive.
Accommodation
There is a traditional porch with attractive windows and doors opening to a reception hall which provides the most welcoming introduction to this superb property, having stairs rising to the first-floor landing together with an under stairs cupboard beneath. Oak block flooring runs through most of the ground floor.
The sitting room is light and airy, courtesy of a leaded front-facing round bay window, together with a traditional central fireplace with leaded widows either side and sliding patio doors which lead out onto the rear gardens. There is also original ceiling detail.
Having a front-facing round bay window, is the separate formal dining room, enjoying a traditional focal fireplace. The well-proportioned breakfast room has an AGA, adjacent to built-in storage cupboards.
The kitchen is situated next to the breakfast room and is fitted with a range of oak-faced high and low level units with contrasting work surfaces over and a stainless-steel one and a half bowl sink and drainer. Appliances include a BOSCH dishwasher, a Miele fridge and a stainless-steel gas hob. Off the rear lobby leads a spacious utility room, having a stainless-steel sink and drainer and fitted cupboards, plus space and provision for domestic appliances. Additionally, there is a separate, useful, fully tiled WC.
The first-floor landing boasts a charming, original front-facing balcony and there are three bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys its own private en-suite comprising shower, wash basin with integrated cupboard, WC and chrome towel radiator. The family bathroom is fitted with a bath, bidet, wash basin and there is a separate WC.
Outside, the house occupies a truly impressive, mature plot which all stands well back from the road, beyond a driveway which leads to the two garages, together with formal front gardens. This space is abundantly stocked with mature trees and provide a high degree of privacy to the boundaries. The gardens extend equally to an impressive side area, as well as to the rear of the property. Furthermore, there is a sunken feature garden with further terrace and lawn and beyond which lies a large timber store and a spacious paddock to the side. As previously mentioned, the whole site extends to approximately 1.76 acres.
The location is indeed enviable, situated on the edge of this very popular Common, yet so convenient for commuting. The A50 and M6 provide direct access into the national motorway network and many commercial centres. The property is within easily driving distance of Stoke-on-Trent and there are railway station at both Stoke and Stafford, providing efficient services to London Euston.
