2 bed detached house for sale

Park Lane, Knypersley, Stoke-On-Trent ST8

Carters are proud to welcome to the market this truly impressive stone built Grade II listed lodge, which is steeped in History. Dating back to 1850, the lodge was designed by James Bateman, the horticulturalist of Knypersley Hall and Biddulph Grange, and originally served the carriage drive between Biddulph Grange and Greenway Bank Deer Park. Having been devotedly renovated and restored by the current occupier, many of the original features remain, including Victorian chimneys, antique doors, two stone fireplaces, exposed stone walls and stone mullions.

Privately situated behind a stone wall on the sought after Park Lane, Knypersley, this enchanting house sits on an impressive plot which extends to quarter of an acre of grounds. These include an extraordinary cottage garden, a well-stocked allotment and gates leading to a driveway providing off road parking for up to five vehicles. Damson, apple and fig trees flourish in the garden near a wildlife pond, which is a wonderful private space to sit and reflect away from busy every day life. From the South side of the grounds, near the greenhouse, uninterupted views can be enjoyed as far as Rock End and Knypersley Reservoir.

Viewers will enter through an exquisitely hand-crafted oak front entrance door to find three spacious reception rooms, each providing a unique space for family gatherings or quiet evenings. The well-appointed kitchen showcases an exposed original stone wall and a recessed picture window, which has a beautiful view over the garden. A log burner with a stone surround creates a cozy atmosphere in the living area. The house features two generously sized bedrooms, ensuring ample space for rest and privacy. Additionally, there are two modern bathrooms, thoughtfully designed to cater to the needs of a busy household. Outside, there is a generous stone built garage and office space.

Dont miss the opportunity to arrange your viewing, and make this stunning historic residence your new home.
