There are some roads that simply carry a certain prestige, and Knowle Road has long been regarded as one of Stafford's most sought-after addresses. Nestled within the highly desirable residential area of Weeping Cross, this exceptional executive detached residence offers an outstanding blend of luxury, space, sustainability and family living, all set within beautifully established gardens and occupying an enviable position on one of the town's most exclusive roads.

From the moment you step through the front door, the quality and character of this remarkable home are immediately apparent. A truly impressive reception hallway creates a stunning first impression, featuring beautiful wooden parquet flooring, an elegant staircase rising to the galleried first floor landing, and a striking double-sided cast iron log-burning stove set within a feature chimney breast. The hallway is spacious enough to incorporate a dining area, creating a welcoming and versatile heart to the home.

A door leads through to the magnificent living room, a beautifully proportioned reception space enjoying the opposite side of the double-sided stove, continued parquet style flooring, recessed lighting and bi-folding doors that open directly onto the landscaped rear gardens, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living.

The true centrepiece of the property is undoubtedly the spectacular extended open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting room. Designed with modern family life and entertaining in mind, this breathtaking space combines luxury finishes with exceptional functionality. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of contemporary units complemented by stunning Corian “Cameo” White work surfaces with waterfall edge detailing and an integrated breakfast bar. A comprehensive range of integrated appliances includes twin AEG ovens, an AEG warming drawer, AEG hob and extractor, Hotpoint microwave and Baumatic dishwasher.

Flowing effortlessly from the kitchen is a spacious dining area and relaxed sitting area, creating a sociable and versatile living environment. The rear section of the extension incorporates a stunning glass room complete with sail-style sun blinds and an impressive pillarless corner bi-folding door arrangement, allowing the entire corner of the room to open onto the garden. Seamless tiled flooring extends from inside to out, creating a truly remarkable entertaining space, further enhanced by an additional set of bi-folding doors opening onto the patio.

A glazed pocket door from the kitchen leads to a well-appointed utility room, fitted with matching cabinetry and work surfaces, together with space for laundry appliances. From here there is access to the guest WC, the double garage and an external side entrance.

The first-floor accommodation is equally impressive. A spacious galleried landing benefits from a front-facing window and sun tunnel, flooding the area with natural light. Five generously proportioned bedrooms provide excellent family accommodation, with four being substantial doubles. Both the principal bedroom and bedroom two enjoy their own en-suite shower rooms, while the principal suite offers a particularly luxurious retreat featuring twin wash hand basins set with a large mirror above, WC and an oversized walk-in shower with rainfall shower fitting. A stylish family bath/shower room serves the remaining bedrooms.

Beyond its exceptional accommodation, this home has been thoughtfully enhanced with an impressive range of eco-conscious and energy-efficient features. A 4.4kW solar pv system has been installed in an east-west orientation to maximise both morning and evening sunlight, complemented by a substantial 13.5kW Tesla Powerwall battery storage system which allows excess solar energy to be stored or cheap-rate electricity to be utilised more effectively. Solar hot water evacuated tubes assist in heating the domestic hot water supply, while a 3,500-litre rainwater harvesting system, discreetly installed beneath the front garden, collects and recycles rainwater for toilet flushing and garden irrigation. Further comfort is provided by underfloor heating throughout the open-plan kitchen extension, utility room, guest WC and all first-floor bathrooms.

Outside, the property continues to impress. The attractive frontage is approached via a substantial driveway providing extensive off-road parking together with an EV charging point. Beautifully planted mature landscaping create an attractive approach, while the double garage benefits from an insulated electric garage door and a useful plant room to the rear.

The expansive rear garden has been thoughtfully designed to provide something for every member of the family. A large natural Travertine tiled patio creates the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, complete with a feature pond. Beyond lies a beautifully maintained lawn surrounded by colourful planted borders stocked with a wide variety of mature plants and shrubs. To the rear of the garden, a more natural wildlife-friendly area provides additional charm and privacy, featuring mature trees, a greenhouse and a timber garden store.

Weeping Cross remains one of Stafford's most desirable residential locations, renowned for its excellent schooling, local amenities and convenient access to Stafford town centre. The area is particularly popular with families and professionals alike, offering easy access to commuter links including the M6 motorway network and Stafford's mainline railway station, which provides regular services to London Euston, Birmingham and Manchester.

A truly exceptional family home where luxury living, sustainable technology and one of Stafford's finest addresses come together to create something very special indeed.
