Newton Road, Burton-on-Trent

Set well back from the road up a private driveway and hidden from view is this exceptional home of character set in its own secluded woodlands. Constructed before 1871, the property features high ceilings throughout enhancing the feeling of space, together with several rooms enjoying a light filled dual aspect. It has been thoughtfully renovated whilst still retaining its period charm including Victorian fireplaces, window shutters, tiled and wood flooring and bespoke joinery - making this a family home to fall in love with.

Surrounded by woodland together with lawned gardens, there is an abundance of outdoor space with a countryside feel yet still benefitting from being just a few minutes away from pubs, shops, riverside walks, rowing clubs, canoeing club, tennis courts and a children's play area.

The reception hall provides a stunning introduction to the property having a lovely period fireplace and wood floor throughout along with a feature staircase leading to the first floor.

The living room is a fabulous light filled room courtesy of its multiple windows including French doors out to the gardens while a log burner adds a cosy feel.

The second reception room is another spacious room that would suit a variety of uses such as a family room, sitting room, formal dining room or work from home office. It enjoys a dual aspect and has a unique rising window shutter along with a character fireplace.

Across the hall, the heart of the house is the good size kitchen/diner perfect for family get togethers and entertaining. With a well-appointed kitchen fitted with base and eye level units, including a full height fridge freezer, Miele dishwasher and a 2nd under-counter fridge, it offers a generous dining area with chimney breast and a cast iron Victorian range stove. There are windows to the rear and side, a door to a useful pantry plus a door to the rear entrance hall, off which is a utility room and stairs down to the cellar, ideal for extra storage.

To the first floor, an impressive galleried landing has doors leading off to five bedrooms, perfect for a large family to grow into.

The first of the two bathrooms is off a half landing and fitted with a three piece suite while the main family bathroom is an exceptionally characterful room featuring a 'Thomas Crapper' period suite with claw-foot bath and large shower.
