An Elegant and Expansive Five-Bedroom Family Home Approaching Its Centenary

Set along the leafy and well-regarded Castlecroft Road in the heart of Finchfield, this handsome home offers over 1,700 sq. ft. of beautifully arranged living space. Formerly two semi-detached properties, it has been thoughtfully combined to create one substantial family residence, a unique piece of local history now approaching its 100th year.

Blending period charm with scale, functionality, and scope for further development, this rare opportunity sits within the sought-after WV3 postcode, just moments from excellent schools, green spaces, and everyday amenities.

 
Ground Floor
The property sits behind a good-sized pebbled driveway with a decorative front planting border, creating an attractive and welcoming approach. A bespoke oak porch frames the historic wooden front door, which opens into a spacious hallway with original quarry tiled flooring, an immediate nod to the home’s heritage and symmetry.

To the right, the Sitting Room offers an elegant and intimate setting, complete with a stunning period open fireplace framed by decorative wooden panelling. A beautiful stained-glass window peers into the kitchen, adding character and charm, while a front-facing double-glazed window allows light to flood in.

The Lounge to the rear is a generous and versatile family space, bathed in natural light. It flows seamlessly into the carpeted Dining Room, where double-glazed patio doors open onto an elevated terrace, the perfect spot to take in garden views or entertain on summer evenings.

The Kitchen features a range of wall and floor units, a larder beside the chimney breast, and a composite sink beneath a rear-facing double-glazed window overlooking the exceptionally well-kept garden. Integrated Bosch appliances include an oven and grill, gas hob, and dishwasher.

A practical Laundry Room offers worktop space, a sink unit, rear access to the Garage, and through-access to the garden via a UPVC door. The Garage itself is ideal for storage, hobbies, or future reconfiguration if desired.

 
First Floor
The wooden original balustrade rises with a carpeted staircase to the first-floor landing.

Straight ahead lies the Family Bathroom, neatly tucked away and fitted with a bath, mixer shower, basin, WC, and side-facing double-glazed window.

Adjacent is Bedroom 2, a spacious double with views over the rear garden. Bedrooms 1, 3, and 4 are also generous doubles, each offering flexibility for family or guests. Bedroom 5 is a single room, perfectly suited as a child’s bedroom or a home office. From here, there is loft access.

The Loft Space is reached via a loft ladder and is fully boarded, spanning the full length of the house with adequate head height. Currently used as a workshop for the current owners’ hobbies, which current hosts a large train set, it is also ripe for conversion (subject to the necessary planning permission), with potential for a studio, playroom, or additional bedroom suite.

 
Rear Garden
Lovingly transformed over the years, the rear garden is a true labour of love. Beautiful bedding plants and stunning borders provide seasonal colour, while a large central lawn creates an open, versatile space. Towards the rear, a hidden garden area offers privacy and charm. At the far end, a brick-built store with single-glazed window provides useful additional storage. This exceptional garden is a testament to the care and dedication of the current owners.
