Description
A Grand Victorian Home Steeped in History, Perfectly Placed for the London Commuter! Stepping through the original wood-panelled entrance door, you’re instantly transported back to 1874 — when craftsmanship and grandeur went hand in hand. This substantial five-bedroom Victorian residence retains an abundance of original period detail, now beautifully complemented by tasteful modern updates introduced by the current owners.
Beyond the modern wrought iron electronically operated double gates, the home unfolds with all the charm and elegance expected of its era —From the striking mahogany staircase to the magnificent morning room—now serving as a billiard and games room perfect for entertaining or family gatherings—this home is full of character. A secret staircase leads to what was once the servants’ quarters, offering a subtle reminder of the property’s fascinating heritage. Not to be overlooked, the grand living room, which once served as a ballet studio, adds yet another layer of charm and history to this remarkable residence. The home features an inviting entrance lobby with traditional Minton tiled flooring, leading to a hallway with cloakroom, a dining room, and a living room that shares a log burner with the adjoining office. To the rear of the property is a substantial living room with a high ceiling, creating a bright and spacious feel. An inner hall provides access to a guest WC, a billiard room, a sitting/dining area, a well-appointed kitchen, and a utility room. Upstairs, there are five generous double bedrooms, including one with an ensuite, as well as a family bathroom. The property also benefits from a substantial cellar, offering additional storage space.
The property enjoys a sense of privacy with gated access. Additionally there is a former coach house now used as a storage/garage and a self-contained annex above — ideal for guests, extended family, or as a creative studio. Outside, the generous rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with paved seating areas and additional gated parking to the rear.
Perfectly positioned for convenience, the property is within easy reach of Stafford town centre and only a ten minute walkable distance to the mainline railway station, placing London, Birmingham and Manchester all within comfortable commuting distance. This is a home that beautifully marries Victorian character with modern comfort, offering history, space, and practicality in equal measure.
