Lord Street, Crewe, CW2

Freehold & No Chain! Lord Street is a quieter location within the fringe of the town centre, and yet perfectly positioned to access all the town's facilities on foot, including Crewe's main railway service which is located within ten minutes walking distance.

This particular property may just be one of the most stunning homes in the whole town, especially in this budget-level entry-price range. Retaining all the original architectural character features of the fabulous Victorian era, this property is beautifully presented throughout and is ready to move straight in.

Set back from the street by a neat enclosed garden, the accommodation is accessed via an enclosed entrance porch, which separates the internal living space from the outside - ideal for storing shoes, boots and coats before entering the reception hallway.

The long reception hallway is simply stunning and separates the accommodation perfectly. An original Minton coloured and patterned tiled floor has been restored to perfection, and with the high decoratively plastered coved ceilings, plaster wall corbels, stripped antique pine doors, skirting boards, door frames and architraves; this is an amazing entrance to the accommodation, and provides a hint of what is to follow...

From the hallway, the front reception room is a delight - the original chimney breast features a magnificent and most handsome solid slate fireplace surround, complete with cast iron insert, open grate and a tiled hearth. With its high ceiling, decorative plaster ceiling rose and plastered coving, what a statement this stunning Victorian architecture made. Natural light is maximised by the inclusion of not one, or even two; but three double glazed windows! The original stripped antique pine woodwork complements all the features to great effect.

The enclosed staircase separates the two reception rooms, with the rear room ideally suited as a dining room, as it neighbours the kitchen. This reception room has a lovely exposed brick open fireplace which features a fabulous cast iron woodburner; ideal for those chilly winter days and evenings. Full-height original built-in larder cupboards retain their antique pine doors, offering lots of handy storage as they were designed to. A deep walk-in storage cupboard is located under the stairs, perfect for domestic storage. 

The kitchen is fitted with an attractive and modern range of shaker-style cabinets, and to the rear of the kitchen there features a separate utility space with space for a tumble dryer. Adjoining the rear of the kitchen, there is a downstairs bathroom, which features a modern suite and benefits a shower over the bath.

The first floor landing provides access to three good bedrooms, the master bedroom featuring a very convenient en-suite shower room and WC.

To the outside, a fully enclosed garden and separated yard area are accessed via the kitchen, and also by a garden gate to the far end of the garden. A handy garden shed is included in the sale price.

The accommodation is warmed throughout by a gas combination heating system, with windows and doors being double glazed for low maintenance, and both ecoustic and economic insulation. 

This has been a very well maintained property and thoroughly loved by both the former, and current owners. This is an ideal first-time buy, downsize, or stunning rental investment, and viewing appointments are considered imperative, in order to fully appreciate the quality and presentation of this stunning home.
