Newton Road, Burton-on-Trent

Set in a lovely established non estate location that is handy for a wide range of amenities is this impressive Victorian semi detached. The property is ready for modernisation and improvements offering the potential for a variety of uses, standing on a superb plot.

A shared driveway gives access to off road parking and neighbouring properties. A significant garden plot lies each side of the driveway, a cottage style garden lies adjacent to the property while beyond the other side of the driveway lies a woodland rising up where we understand trees are subject to preservation orders.

The front entrance door opens into a good sized hall with the splendid original Minton tiled floor. Leading off are two reception rooms – a lovely bay fronted lounge that opens into a dining room. Beyond this is the breakfast room with Aga, fitted units, a useful storage cupboard and side facing window. A door opens into the kitchen that has two areas including base and eye level units, worksurfaces and an inset oven and hob. A door leads to a rear entrance hall.

Back to the main hall where stairs lead down to the basement level that is divided into a large workshop, store and guest WC. Doors open out to the rear garden.

On the first floor there are two large double bedrooms, the main bedroom has its own en suite with shower cubicle, pedestal wash basin, saniflow WC and front facing window. Bedroom two has windows to the side and rear plus an interlinking door into bedroom two which could easily be closed off.

A split level landing has a few steps up to a substantial bathroom having a large Jacuzzi style bath, twin wash basins, WC, window to side and a door to a rear terrace.

The second floor has two large double bedrooms, currently used as work from home space with windows to the front and rear.

The house stands on a substantial plot with a shared front path giving access to this home and neighbouring properties.
