Description

** ** The reception hall features a vaulted ceiling with a roof light and a tiled floor which extends into the cloakroom, fitted with a WC and wash basin with integrated cupboard beneath. A glazed door opens to the main reception hall which has glass balustraded stairs rising to the first floor landing and a feature wall covering to one wall. This gives access to the study, and the sitting room has a front facing window and modern vertical radiator.

The magnificent open plan living/dining kitchen is fitted with a stunning kitchen to include an extensive range of light grey units and quartz work surfaces extending to a drainer with an inset sink, two integrated ovens, dishwasher, full size fridge and full size freezer. There is a large island unit having contrasting darker grey cupboards and drawers with integrated microwave oven and wine cooler, surmounted by quartz work surfaces integrating a hob with extractor canopy above, plus dining bar. There are two bi-folding doors from the kitchen area with integrated blinds. The splendid porcelain tiled floor with underfloor heating extends into the very spacious dining and living area which features further full width bi-folding doors with integrated blinds opening to the garden, a part vaulted ceiling with two feature Velux roof lights, plus a bespoke fitted bar and higher-level bench style seating.

Off the kitchen area, the utility room is fitted with further cupboards, a stainless-steel sink and drainer, space and provision for a washing machine, an internal door to the garage and a door out to the side.

The first floor landing has a linen cupboard, and off which leads four bedrooms. The principal bedroom has a range of modern fitted wardrobes, plus a further dressing area leading to a beautifully presented en suite which has exquisite tiling, a shower with both conventional and waterfall heads, a wash basin with integrated drawers beneath, and WC.

The second bedroom also has the benefit of an en suite comprising shower, WC and pedestal wash basin.

The luxuriously appointed family bathroom features a P shaped bath with both conventional and waterfall shower heads above, WC and wash basin set into a modern unit with integrated cupboard, and outstanding tiling.

Outside, to the front, the house stands back from the main Eccleshall Road beyond a service road. There is a block paved drive capable of parking three of four cars, giving access to the garage. To the rear of the property, there is artificial grass immediately from the bi-fold doors in the dining/living space and beyond which lies more traditional lawns with established borders.

Eccleshall Road is an exceptionally sought-after location, convenient for the county town centre and for junction 14 of the M6, which provides direct access into the national motorway network and M6 toll. Stafford has the benefit of an intercity railway station with regular services operating to London Euston, some of which taking approximately 1 hour 20 minutes.
