Description

Heywoods Estate Agents welcome to the market this immaculately maintained semi-detached home on Oakdene Close in Porthill, Newcastle-under-Lyme, offered for sale with no upward chain. The property offers generous living accommodation, well-kept gardens, off road parking and a detached garage. The property has clearly been cared for to an excellent standard over the years and, while beautifully presented throughout, now offers buyers the opportunity to carry out selective updating to suit their own taste and requirements.
Set within a pleasant cul-de-sac position, the home enjoys attractive kerb appeal with a neat front garden, driveway parking and a detached garage. The red brick and rendered exterior, bay window and welcoming entrance create a charming first impression, while the enclosed porch with exposed brickwork and stained glass front door adds character from the moment you step inside.
The hallway is bright and inviting, with access to the main ground floor rooms and stairs rising to the first floor. The living room is a spacious and comfortable reception room, enjoying plenty of natural light from the bay window. A fireplace creates a focal point, while the decorative ceiling rose, fitted carpet and traditional décor give the room a warm and homely feel.
The kitchen is well arranged and offers a range of wooden wall and base units, work surfaces, tiled splashbacks and integrated appliances, with space for further under counter appliances. There is room for dining, making this a practical everyday family space, and the layout connects naturally to the conservatory. The conservatory is a particularly appealing addition, providing a bright and versatile sitting area overlooking the rear garden, with doors opening directly outside.
The ground floor also includes a useful WC, adding everyday convenience.
To the first floor, the property offers well proportioned bedroom accommodation together with the shower room. The bedrooms are neatly presented, with fitted storage to the main rooms and flexible use depending on the needs of the buyer. It is also worth noting that the third bedroom and shower room have previously been swapped, and the layout could potentially be changed back with relative ease, offering additional flexibility for those looking to reconfigure the first floor. The landing also provides access via a fitted ladder to a large, partially boarded loft space, offering useful additional storage.
Externally, the rear garden has been carefully maintained and thoughtfully landscaped, offering paved and gravelled areas, raised borders, mature planting, flowering shrubs and a garden shed. The garden feels private and established, providing a pleasant outdoor space for relaxing, entertaining or enjoying the warmer months.
The driveway provides off road parking and leads to the detached garage, which offers secure parking, storage or workshop potential.
Oakdene Close is a desirable residential location within Porthill, well placed for local amenities, schools, commuter links and access into Newcastle-under-Lyme. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a much loved home that has been immaculately maintained, with excellent space, attractive gardens and scope for selective updating or extending in a popular and convenient setting.
