Description
A timber latch door gives access to an entrance porch with a further solid door leading into the living room which has a fire recess housing a wood burner on a tiled hearth, laminate flooring and stairs off.
There is a good size breakfast kitchen equipped with a modern range of base cupboards, drawers and wall units, surmounted by wood effect worktops, white ceramic 1.5 bowl sink with multi-function mixer tap and extendable hose, tiled splashbacks, inset Rangemaster Infusion Electric Range Cooker with extractor hood over to match, appliance spaces, plumbing for automatic washing machine and laminate floor.
Off the living room is a rear hall with a door opening to the rear garden and off this is a boiler/utility room housing the oil-fired boiler, together with a separate modern shower room having tiled shower with glazed screen, WC, pedestal wash hand basin, chrome heating towel rail and laminate flooring.
On the first floor, there is a landing running across the rear of the property with windows opening out and affording very attractive views over adjacent countryside. There are three good size bedrooms, serviced by a second bathroom, having bath in tiled surround with shower over and glazed screen, wash hand basin, WC, chrome heated towel rail and laminate flooring.
Outside, there is an attached brick garage/workshop, together with an EV charge point. The workshop has both a pedestrian stable style door and double opening garage doors and offers an excellent workshop/garage space. There is an enclosed rear garden with extensive lawns and patio areas adjacent to countryside, and if you reduce the height of the hedge, you can take advantage of the wonderful views.
The property is situated in a truly delightful Sandon location which is conveniently situated for the county town of Stafford to the west and the market town of Uttoxeter to the east. There are excellent road links in the area including junctions 13 and 14 of the M6 providing direct access into the national motorway network and M6 toll. Stafford has an intercity railway station with regular services to London Euston, some of which take only 1 hour 20 minutes.
