Description
Set behind beautiful double wooden electric gates, this luxury five-bedroom family home in the ever-desirable Weeping Cross is the perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and personality. From the moment you pull onto the huge driveway — with parking for four cars plus a heated double garage — you know you're about to see something special.
You're just a short stroll from Cannock Chase AONB, ideal for family walks, bike rides, and weekends outdoors. The local community is second to none — top-rated schools, a Co-op, café bar Bod, and the award-winning Weeping Cross Fish Bar are all on your doorstep. This really is one of Stafford's most sought-after spots, and once you're here, you'll see why.
Step inside and you're greeted by a bright, welcoming hallway that sets the tone for the rest of the home — open, stylish, and designed for modern family life. The main lounge sits to the front, a spacious haven perfect for relaxing or even converting into a home cinema. There's also a smaller reception room that's been a playroom and home office in its time — flexible space that grows with you.
Then there's the kitchen-diner — the showstopper. Farmhouse charm meets contemporary design, complete with a statement range cooker, sleek modern appliances (yes, there's a wine fridge), and bi-fold doors that open up to the garden. This is the kind of room that brings people together — it's social, warm, and built for family life. You could easily fit a huge dining table, a sofa for relaxing, and there's still room to move. A handy utility room and downstairs WC finish off the ground floor perfectly.Upstairs, the home continues to impress. Five generous bedrooms all come with professionally fitted wardrobes, and a few even have built-in desks or dressing tables. One has a beautiful feature fireplace, another a charming window seat — little touches that make each space unique.And then there's the master suite. Dual Juliette balconies flood the room with light, there's space for a super king bed and a sofa, and the open en-suite bath is pure indulgence — imagine soaking with a glass of wine, stars above, and total peace.The family bathroom is just as striking, with a roll-top bath, double shower, and vintage touches that make it feel more like a boutique hotel than a family home.Now… let's talk about the garden.Step through those bi-folds and you're met with an outdoor space that's been designed for living. The large patio stretches across the back of the house, perfect for hosting summer BBQs or relaxing with a drink in hand. There's space for a huge hot tub (and yes, there's one here already), an outdoor shower, and even an outdoor kitchen setup that's ideal for al fresco dining. Beyond that, the generous lawn gives kids — and grown-ups — room to play, with space for goalposts, a trampoline, or just a good old-fashioned game of catch.And then there's the games room. With full-width bi-fold doors opening out onto the patio, it blurs the line between indoors and out. Inside, it's currently home to a pool table, darts board, and all the makings of the ultimate hangout — whether it's family movie night, a few drinks with friends, or the perfect party space, this room has it all.Every corner of this home has been thought through, offering not just space, but a lifestyle.Homes like this don't come up often — and if you miss it, you'll be the one Weeping (and definitely Cross) that you didn't make it yours!MATERIAL INFORMATION
