Description
A home fit for royalty on Castle Street! Bursting with traditional charm, this lovely two-bedroom terraced home combines beautiful original Minton tiled flooring, two reception rooms and a surprisingly generous rear garden. With two spacious double bedrooms and plenty of character throughout, this could be the perfect place to call home!
Situated on Castle Street in Stafford, the property enjoys a convenient location within easy reach of Stafford town centre, where you'll find a fantastic selection of shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities. Stafford's mainline railway station is also nearby, offering excellent connections for commuters, while the surrounding road network provides convenient access to the wider area.
The property is approached directly from Castle Street, with the front door opening into a welcoming entrance hallway. Beautiful original Minton tiled flooring immediately sets the tone, adding a wonderful sense of character to the home.
Stairs rise to the first-floor landing, while a door to the left leads into the living room, offering a comfortable space to relax and unwind.
Continuing along the hallway, you'll find a convenient guest WC before reaching the separate dining room at the rear of the property. This generously proportioned room also benefits from original Minton tiled flooring, creating a charming setting for family meals and entertaining guests.
Off to the left of the dining room is the kitchen, providing practical space for cooking and food preparation. There is room for a freestanding fridge freezer, alongside under-counter space for a washing machine, while a rear door provides direct access to the garden.
Outside, the rear garden is a fantastic feature of the property, offering considerably more outdoor space than you might initially expect.
Immediately behind the house is a paved area, ideal for outdoor seating, with decorative slate beds positioned on either side as the garden opens towards the lawn.
Beyond this, an impressively long lawn stretches towards the rear boundary, with flower beds positioned along both sides in places, offering plenty of opportunities for planting and enjoying the outdoors.
Upstairs, the first-floor landing provides access to two generously sized double bedrooms, both offering comfortable accommodation with plenty of room for bedroom furniture.
The family bathroom is fitted with a shower over the bath, while a separate WC adds further practicality to the first-floor layout.
Combining original character features, two spacious reception rooms, generous double bedrooms and an exceptionally long rear garden, this charming Castle Street home offers a wonderful opportunity for first-time buyers, couples or anyone looking for a traditional property close to Stafford town centre.
