Detached house for sale in Stoke-on-Trent ST8, 5 Bedroom

This detached five bedroom home is located within a private development of only 2 dwellings with an option to purchase the additional property by separate negotiation.

The property is set within extensive grounds extending to 0.77 acres including formal gardens, which surround the property to three sides. Due to the enormity of the accommodation, this magnificent house offers the potential to reconfigure & extend to create a substantial family home. There is also great potential for use as a commercial entity (subject to approval) for many uses including a nursing home, childcare nursery, or residential care facility.

As previously mentioned there is also an option to purchase the additional property being a 2 bedroom detached bungalow with planning permission granted to create a dormer bungalow & two further bedrooms. Together with the bungalow’s additional grounds the whole development occupies just under an acre, presenting a rare opportunity for two or more families who are looking to reside together but with separate accommodation.

The property is accessed through a private driveway which serves both properties, however an additional access point has been granted to allow privacy.
The grounds have been well maintained with extensive lawns & ornamental pond. The gardens are a real feature being stocked with an array of plants & mature trees which provide a secluded position whilst aiding privacy. The grounds combined with the grandeur of the house are truly impressive.

As well as views over the property’s grounds, there are views over the front towards Mow Cop.

Although the property is in a habitable condition, planning permission has been granted via Staffordshire Moorlands to demolish the existing house & replace with 6, four bedroom detached houses. Purchasers may seek alternative permission on completion or by prior arrangement.

Located within close proximity to local amenities of Biddulph town centre, as well as local schools including Knypersley First School which has been accredited outstanding by ofstead.
