Originally built in 1856, this quirky Eccleshall gem is ready to turn the key on its next exciting chapter… and you could be the leading character.

From the moment you step through the front door, the house rolls out the red carpet of personality. The living room instantly steals the spotlight with exposed feature brick walls framing the space like a scene set, while the feature fireplace creates the perfect cosy centrepiece for winter nights, lazy Sundays and everything in between. Stairs rise to the first floor, teasing even more treasures yet to come. Follow the flow into the kitchen, where rustic quarry tile flooring takes centre stage beneath an array of wooden cabinetry and complementing wooden worktops, a recipe for timeless charm. Whether you’re brewing your morning coffee or cooking up a dinner-party masterpiece, this kitchen is ready to play its part. Next door, the dining room keeps the entertaining story alive, with the quarry tiling guiding you seamlessly into yet another reception room, a dining room. Bathed in natural light from dual aspect windows, this flexible space is perfect for creative corners, a playroom, home office or an impressive entertaining hub. A handy door also provides direct access to the bin store and gated carport for practical convenience behind the scenes.

Upstairs, the character continues to unfold. The principal bedroom is a wonderfully generous double, enjoying dual aspect windows that flood the room with natural light, alongside a full wall of wood-effect wardrobes offering storage with style. Bedroom two is another spacious double, complete with a large front-facing window that brightens the room beautifully throughout the day. But the real wildcard? A versatile study/dressing room tucked just before the principal bedroom. Complete with built-in storage and French doors opening directly onto the garden, this room is wonderfully adaptable and generous in size, easily large enough to serve as an additional bedroom if desired. The family bathroom is delightfully distinctive, blending vintage flair with quirky detail. Chessboard-effect flooring, a feature bath with green tiled surround, WC, bidet and sink all combine to create a space packed with personality, while the skylight, garden-facing window and wood-effect ceiling flood the room with warmth and natural light.

Outside, the surprises keep coming. Thanks to the home’s wonderfully unique layout, the garden can be accessed directly from the first floor, creating a private outdoor retreat that feels tucked away from the world. With decked patio areas and gardening space alike, there’s plenty of room for green fingers, summer evenings or simply letting your imagination run wild. Back at ground level, practicality joins the party with a gated carport and outdoor bin store offering parking ease and everyday convenience.
