Inside boasts high ceilings, ornate features, and every detail whispers elegance. Step through the traditional stained glass glazing and continue into the bright dining room; with a characterful fire surround and a stunning bay window, it is perfect for dinner parties with friends or family game nights. Flow seamlessly into the heart of the home, the inviting living room that features a cosy log burner and glazed French doors opening to the rear garden. Throughout the property, you’ll find tasteful touches that pay homage to the home’s heritage, including high ceilings, traditional coving, deep skirting boards and engineered oak herringbone flooring to lounge and dining rooms.The kitchen is both functional and stylish, featuring sleek cabinetry, solid oak worktops, and space for all your essentials. It opens into the South-East facing garden room — basking in natural light and offering views of the beautifully maintained garden. Perfect for morning coffee, afternoon tea, or the occasional scandalous whisper. You also benefit from a spacious porch, a beautiful entrance hall and a convenient W/C. Two generously sized double bedrooms and a further single bedroom are ideal for growing families, those who work from home, or anyone who simply enjoys a little extra space. The bathroom has been beautifully updated to offer a sleek freestanding, double-ended rolltop bath, a spacious walk-in shower, a vanity sink with real marble counter top. Minton-style tiling and even a separate W/C for a touch of added convenience. Step beyond the doors into a garden that feels plucked straight from the pages of a society romance, set on an enviable south-facing plot offering sunshine all day, with patio seating spaces, lush lawns and secret garden areas, perfect for a vegetable patch, keeping chickens or a charming summerhouse. There is also scope to extend or even explore the possibility of a building plot, subject to the necessary planning permissions (STNPP), making this a garden with both charm and potential. To the front, you’ll discover a generously sized driveway with off-road parking for several vehicles and a single garage for secure storage. Situated within walking distance of the stunning Trentham Gardens, local schools, shops, eateries, healthcare services and much more, not only does this home offer beautiful interiors and plenty of space to relax, but it also offers an extremely well-connected location. Commuting has never been easier with the nearby A34, A500, M6, A50 and Stoke train station. Altogether, this home is a triumph — a residence not merely to be viewed, but to be admired. Yours, ever watchful, Lady Whistledown (or your humble estate agent...) ## Property Photos - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381570) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381571) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381572) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381573) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381574) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381575) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381576) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381577) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381578) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381579) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381580) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381581) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381582) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381583) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381584) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381585) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381586) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381587) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381588) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381589) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381590) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381591) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381592) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381593) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381594) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381595) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381596) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381597) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381599) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2381601) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2446269) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2446270) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2446271) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2446272) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2446273) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2446274) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2446275) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2446276) - ![Photo](/listings/photos/93176418/2457836) ## Floorplans - ![All](/listings/photos/93176418/2381603) - All - ![Site Plan](/listings/photos/93176418/2381605) - Site Plan ## FENSA Certificates This property has 3 FENSA certificate(s) on record. ### FENSA Certificate #2160920 - **Address:** 28 Allerton Road, Stoke-on-Trent, ST4 8PA - **Certificate Issued:** 26/10/2004 - **Work Completed:** 07/11/2003 - **Items:** 1 window(s) ### FENSA Certificate #1633932 - **Address:** 28 Allerton Road, Stoke-on-Trent, ST4 8PA - **Certificate Issued:** 13/04/2004 - **Work Completed:** 15/03/2004 - **Items:** 10 window(s) ### FENSA Certificate #15588308 - **Address:** 28 Allerton Road, STOKE-ON-TRENT, ST4 8PA - **Certificate Issued:** 29/01/2023 - **Work Completed:** 19/01/2023 - **Items:** 2 window(s), 1 door(s) ## Sales History *Recorded sales for this property.
