Description

''Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?' Step inside one of Staffordshire's most remarkable homes - a six bedroom, Grade II listed treasure nestled in the prestigious and storied The Villas, Penkhull. Built over 170 years ago by a visionary architect and now part of a unique and cherished conservation area, this immense semi-detached residence spans four incredible floors of architectural beauty and timeless grandeur. Overflowing with character, every inch of this home tells a story. From its soaring high ceilings, arched doorways, and original Minton tiled floors, to stained glass windows, cast iron fireplaces, restored floorboards, and ceiling roses that cradle statement chandeliers - this is a home that wears its heritage with elegance and pride. The hallway alone stops you in your tracks, with its original Minton flooring, bespoke single-glazed door, and immediate access to all principal rooms and the cellar below. The formal lounge is nothing short of magnificent. Measuring a generous 21ft by 18ft, this space boasts floor to ceiling arched windows with bespoke shutters, sleek laminate floors, and not one but three cast iron radiators. A multi fuel burner set within a stunning fireplace invites you to unwind in style, while French doors open onto a serene courtyard. The dining room plays host to a table for sixteen, and still feels spacious. It mirrors the same soaring ceilings, arched windows, shutters, and an elegant electric fireplace feature - the ultimate entertaining venue! A delightful playroom with dual windows, restored oak floorboards, a fireplace with Minton tiled hearth and marble surround adds warmth and charm. The kitchen is effortlessly charming and cleverly divided into two interconnected spaces - blending period elegance and practicality. The first room offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere with fitted cabinetry, a built in storage cupboard ideal for shoes and coats, and a space for a dining table. A characterful electric log burner feature creates a cosy hub for casual dining or morning coffee. Step through to the second room - a chef's dream with an array of fitted cupboards providing ample storage, tiled flooring, and integrated appliances. The stunning ceramic sink beneath a charming vintage window and the beautiful back door complete the picture. Natural light floods both rooms through characterful windows, making this space as inspiring as it is functional. And tucked just beyond the kitchen, you'll find the outhouse/laundry room, an incredibly useful bonus space where all noisy appliances are kept out of the main house, along with additional storage options to keep everything beautifully organised and tucked away. A stylish downstairs WC with sleek modern tiling and vanity completes the ground floor. Accessed from the main hallway, the cellar is a fantastic bonus space currently used for storage and a home gym, but the options are endless. Upstairs, original charm continues with high ceilings, original fireplaces, large windows with shutters, and beautiful flooring throughout. There are four stunning bedrooms, two with ensuites, all spacious and uniquely styled. Tucked away through a graceful archway, the master suite is a sanctuary all of its own - secluded, serene, and utterly exquisite. This grand space blends period drama with modern refinement, featuring high ceilings, bespoke shutters, and a striking original fireplace that draws the eye. The sense of scale is undeniable, offering more than enough room for a king-size bed, reading nook, or additional furniture without ever feeling crowded. The suite also includes a charming private study, perfect for working from home or enjoying quiet moments of escape. The luxurious ensuite is designed to impress, with a double shower cubicle, his and hers sinks, sleek modern tiling, and tasteful vanity units that balance style with practicality. The family bathroom is a sanctuary in its own right, with a free standing bath, double shower, twin sinks, and timeless design touches throughout. Two further double bedrooms await on the second floor, both bright and airy, one with original fireplace and original sash windows. A handy shower room serves this level, ideal for guests or the older children. The magic continues outdoors. To the front, a grand gated entrance with lush lawns and a classic path leading to the front door. To the rear, a beautifully landscaped garden with two patio areas, lawns, flower beds, a bark play area for children, and mature shrubs and trees - it's your own private haven. This is more than just a home - it's a lifestyle, a legacy, a work of art. If you're seeking something rare, rich in history, and utterly beautiful, this is it.
