Alliant Un Caractère D'époque Élégant À Un Style De Vie Moderne Soigneusement Conçu

Offered to the market with no onward chain, this is a rare opportunity to become the next custodian of a home that has been in the same ownership for almost four decades.

A beautifully appointed five bedroom Victorian villa arranged over three spacious floors, blending elegant period character with thoughtfully designed modern living. Offering generous reception space, four bathrooms and a wealth of original features, the home combines timeless craftsmanship with practical family living in an exceptional setting.

The property has a fascinating history, having been built in 1896 and owned by the Cornes family until 1976, before being purchased by the current owners in 1987. Although classified as semi-detached, the house has a particularly distinctive architectural identity. The adjoining property originally served as the home’s granny annexe, with each property featuring its own apex roof and roof void, separated by a central valley. This twin apex arrangement differs from the surrounding semi-detached villas, which typically share a single apex roof, giving the two homes the appearance and architectural character of individual properties joined together.

Considerable care has been taken to maintain and improve the property over the years. The roof was redone in 2021, alongside works to the chimneys, flashing and leadwork, while more recent improvements include a new boiler, fencing and gates.

Ground Floor
The ground floor perfectly balances elegant Victorian character with practical modern family living. An impressive reception hall with a wide staircase, large skylight and original oak herringbone flooring immediately sets the tone for the quality and craftsmanship found throughout the home, while a charming reading nook tucked beside the staircase adds warmth and personality to the space.

Multiple reception rooms offer flexibility for both entertaining and everyday living, including a beautifully panelled drawing room with a fireplace and French doors to the garden, a relaxed sitting room overlooking the grounds, and an elegant dining room with bay sash windows, feature fireplace and original mahogany flooring.

At the heart of the home is a substantial open plan kitchen and family living space with Aga, Corian worktops, Butler’s Pantry and a contemporary garden room extension added in 2006, creating a light filled space with seamless garden connection. A beautifully designed cloakroom, utility area and extensive built in storage complete the ground floor accommodation.

First Floor
The first floor provides spacious and versatile family accommodation, centred around a generous landing with excellent built in storage throughout.

The principal bedroom features a distinctive bay window with stained glass detailing, dual aspect outlook and en-suite shower room, while the additional bedrooms offer a blend of period character, fitted storage and flexibility for family living or home working.

A standout feature is bedroom four, complete with a triple aspect outlook and L shaped balcony overlooking the gardens. The floor is completed by a beautifully appointed family bathroom and additional contemporary shower room, both finished to a high standard.

Second Floor
The second floor offers a versatile and characterful space with far reaching countryside views across the Caldon Canal valley.

Featuring built in beds, integrated shelving, extensive eaves storage and flexible partitioning, the space is ideal for additional bedrooms, studio use or recreational living. Velux windows and an original sash window provide excellent natural light throughout.

Gardens, Ground & Location
The property is approached via the exclusive Amber Court private road, with gated access leading to substantial parking areas, a double garage and beautifully maintained south facing wraparound gardens. York stone pathways, mature planting and multiple seating areas create a private and established outdoor setting ideal for both entertaining and family life.

Above the garage, a fully converted home office provides excellent flexibility for modern living and working.

Parking at the property includes an extensive driveway with space for 7+ cars and a secure double garage.

Positioned at the gateway to the Staffordshire Moorlands, the home enjoys a balance of countryside surroundings and everyday convenience, with schools, cafés, sports clubs, canal walks and transport links all easily accessible nearby.
