Denise White Estate Agents Comments

The property opens into a welcoming entrance hallway, with stairs rising to the first floor and original tiled flooring immediately highlighting the period character of the home. Detailed cornicing and generous proportions continue throughout the ground floor.

To the front is a well-proportioned dining room, featuring a beautiful bay window, wooden flooring, picture rail and detailed coving. This is a spacious reception room with plenty of natural light and offers an excellent opportunity to create an elegant formal dining space.

The second reception room sits towards the rear of the property and features attractive tiled flooring, useful built-in storage and a lovely feature fireplace. The room enjoys a pleasant outlook over the enclosed rear yard and provides another versatile reception space.

At the rear is a large galley-style kitchen, measuring over 4.5 metres in length, with access through to an additional sunroom. This could potentially be transformed into a bright breakfast nook or informal dining area, with door providing access to the rear of the property.

To the first floor are three bedrooms, comprising two comfortable doubles and a single bedroom to the rear. Both double bedrooms benefit from built-in storage whilst bedroom two retains an attractive cast iron fireplace, adding to the property's period appeal.

The family bathroom is fitted with a three-piece suite.

Completing the accommodation is a large loft room, accessed via a loft ladder and benefiting from a skylight and pulley system. With the appropriate permissions and regulations, this space could potentially be converted to create an impressive fourth bedroom.

Overall, this is a property requiring extensive renovation, but one that offers a fantastic opportunity to restore and modernise a substantial period townhouse while retaining its original features and character.

Location

Known as the 'Queen of the Staffordshire Moorlands', Leek is a former textile town with a long and fascinating history.

The unspoilt town centre offers a refreshing alternative from modern shopping malls and has a wealth of independent shops, including former silk mills housing antique and reproduction pine centres, as well as traditional and contemporary furnishings.

Delicious local produce can be found in abundance at traditional butchers, bakers, greengrocers, delicatessens and cafes. Leek is also home to speciality producers of condiments, confectionery, preserves, wine, whisky, craft beers and the traditional Staffordshire oatcake.

Traditional markets abound, both indoors in the beautifully restored Victorian Butter Market and outdoors in the Market Place, offering everything from general goods, antiques and collectables to fine foods and special 'Totally Locally' Sunday markets. And when it comes to wining and dining, you can choose from a tempting selection of cafés, real ale pubs and restaurants.

Further afield, you'll find the unique, tooth-like rock formations of The Roaches, Rudyard Lake with its picturesque setting and narrow gauge railway and Tittesworth Water, a popular and accessible attraction for visitors of all ages.

Why We Love This Home!

We love this home because it offers so much potential for someone with vision. Although it requires modernisation throughout, the property has retained many of the original features that make period townhouses so appealing, from the tiled hallway and bay frontage to the detailed cornicing, generous skirting boards and cast iron fireplaces.

The accommodation is also well proportioned, with three bedrooms, two reception rooms, a large kitchen, sunroom and useful loft room, giving plenty of scope to rework the space and create a home that suits modern living. The loft room is an added bonus, with potential for conversion subject to the necessary permissions.

This could be an ideal project for a buyer looking to restore a period property and put their own stamp on it, while being within easy reach of the town centre and situated on a popular residential street.
