4 bed semi-detached house for sale

The Avenue, Basford, Newcastle-Under-Lyme, Staffordshire ST5

Heywoods Estate Agents proudly present to the market this substantial and elegant Victorian semi-detached residence, located on the prestigious and tree-lined Avenue in Basford, Newcastle-under-Lyme. Set on a generous plot and brimming with character, this impressive home offers extensive living accommodation across two floors, with four bedrooms, multiple reception rooms, original features throughout, and a large garden room to the rear of a detached garage. While the property has been well maintained, it would now benefit from some general tlc, offering buyers the chance to update and modernise to their own taste.

Stepping through the front door, you are welcomed into a wide and grand entrance hall, laid with beautiful original Minton tiled flooring and framed by ornate cornices and architraves. Either side of the hallway are two spacious formal reception rooms, both featuring large bay windows, high ceilings, period fireplaces, and decorative detailing. These rooms are ideal for use as a main lounge, formal dining room, or additional family living spaces, and offer flexibility to suit modern lifestyles.

Toward the rear of the ground floor is a third reception room, a cosy and adaptable space currently used as a family room or snug, which leads directly into a conservatory overlooking the rear garden. The kitchen is located at the back of the hallway and offers a generous footprint, fitted with a range-style cooker, units, and central island. While fully functional, it offers exciting potential for redesign and improvement.

Beyond the kitchen is a rear lobby giving access to a separate utility room, a ground floor WC, and an external store. These practical spaces are neatly positioned away from the main living areas, offering excellent functionality for a busy household.

Upstairs, the property boasts four well-proportioned bedrooms, all of which retain their generous Victorian proportions, high ceilings, and original detailing. The layout provides ample room for family living, guests, or even working from home. A family bathroom fitted with a bath and wash basin is complemented by a separate shower room and an additional WC, making the first floor highly practical for a growing household.

Externally, the property offers a large frontage with a driveway providing off-road parking for approximately four cars, leading to a detached garage. Attached to the rear of the garage is a substantial garden room—an incredibly versatile space with the potential to be used as a home gym, studio, workspace, or entertaining area. The rear garden itself is generous and private, mostly laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs creating a peaceful and established setting with huge potential for landscaping or outdoor living enhancements.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a grand Victorian home on one of Basford’s most desirable streets. Located close to highly regarded schools, local amenities, transport links and Newcastle-under-Lyme town centre, this property is ideal for families or those seeking space, character and the chance to restore a beautiful period home. Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the scale, charm, and potential on offer.
