New Road, Staincross

Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac on a private road in Staincross, Barnsley. New Road presents a rare opportunity for those looking for flexibility in how a home can be lived in. This split-level detached bungalow offers far-reaching views across the surrounding area and is positioned in an elevated spot, giving it a sense of privacy without being remote. It's a property that suits a variety of needs-ideal as a spacious single-family home, but equally well-suited to those who may benefit from a self-contained annex, whether for extended family, older children, or guest accommodation.
From the outset, it's clear that space and versatility are the key themes here. The L-shaped entrance hall sets the tone with two built-in storage cupboards offering practical day-to-day usability. To the rear of the property lies a generous dining kitchen fitted with traditional oak wall and base units, giving a solid and timeless feel to the heart of the home. There's also direct access to the rear garden from the kitchen, making it functional for day-to-day living and entertaining. A separate utility room keeps appliances tucked away and helps to maintain order in the main kitchen space.
The main lounge immediately stands out with its vaulted ceiling, adding a real sense of openness. A log burner adds warmth and character, making it a cosy yet spacious place to relax. From here, an oak staircase leads to the first-floor landing, which connects to the area that has the potential to serve as a self-contained annex.
In total, there are four bedrooms across the home. Three are located on the main level, including the master, which comes with an en suite shower room. The other two are comfortable in size and served by a stylish family bathroom, which features a freestanding roll-top bath and a clean white suite. There's also a study/office space and a second sitting room or snug with patio doors out to the garden, offering flexibility for different living arrangements or work-from-home setups.
On the upper floor, there's another bedroom with its own en suite shower room, an orangery looks out over the rear garden and also provides access to it. This part of the house could be used independently, making it ideal for someone wanting a semi-private space for a family member or a separate guest area.
Externally, the property continues to impress with a generous block-paved driveway offering ample parking, leading to a double garage for secure storage or workshop use. A log store sits neatly to one side. The rear garden has been designed with low maintenance in mind but still has visual interest. A pebbled patio area leads to a raised lawn surrounded by mature borders and a rockery, giving some depth and greenery without the need for intensive upkeep.
Location-wise, this part of Staincross is well connected and popular with those needing easy access to travel links. The M1 motorway is close by, making commuting to Sheffield, Leeds, or further afield straightforward. Local bus routes run through the area regularly, and Barnsley town centre is only a short drive away, offering a wide range of retail and leisure amenities.
Everyday essentials are covered locally, with a Co-op Food store in Mapplewell and larger supermarkets like Asda and Morrisons within a 10-minute drive. Schools in the area are well regarded, including Mapplewell Primary and Darton Academy, both of which are easily accessible from the property. For those who enjoy green space, nearby Locke Park and the open countryside surrounding the area offer opportunities for walking and outdoor activities.
In summary, New Road offers a rare mix of space, adaptability, and a well-regarded location. Whether looking for a substantial family home or a property that can accommodate multiple generations or flexible living, this one covers all the bases without any unnecessary compromise.
