Nixon Lane, Stone

Deal yourself a winning hand with this Full House on Nixon Lane! Sitting on a highly sought-after estate in Stone, this five-bedroom detached home has plenty of cards up its sleeve! Whether you’re looking to upsize the family or simply fancy playing your next move, this one could be the ace you’ve been waiting for.

The opening hand is a welcoming entrance hallway, setting the scene for what’s to come. To the left, the cosy living room is ready for quieter nights, movie marathons and putting your feet up after a busy day. But the real ace of the downstairs is waiting further through the house...

The ace up your sleeve is the impressive open-plan kitchen diner, giving you plenty of space to cook, eat, chat and entertain all in one hand. The kitchen is fitted with modern cabinetry, contrasting worktops, induction hob, oven and extractor, with space for additional appliances too. There’s plenty of room for a dining table, while French doors open out to the garden, bringing a little bit of the outdoors into play. Whether it’s family breakfasts, Friday night dinners or a full house of guests, this is a space that knows how to deal the good times.

Keeping all the practical cards close at hand, the adjoining utility room continues the same modern cabinetry and provides yet more space for appliances, while a downstairs WC takes care of another useful box to tick. There’s also integral access into the garage, meaning you can get from car to kitchen without having to navigate the whole deck!

Deal five bedrooms into the mix and there’s plenty of flexibility upstairs for family, guests, home working, hobbies or whatever life has in store. The master bedroom holds the winning card, complete with its own en suite shower room featuring a walk-in shower, WC and wash hand basin. The fifth bedroom is currently used as a home office. The remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom, complete with a bath and shower combination, WC and pedestal wash hand basin.

And then there’s the garden, another card in your favour. The South-East-facing rear garden combines a low-maintenance faux lawn with patio and pebbled areas, creating an easy-to-look-after outdoor space with plenty of room to sit back, relax and enjoy the sunshine. Whether it’s morning coffee, summer drinks or somewhere for the family to unwind, this outdoor space plays a very good hand indeed.

Out front, the cards keep falling your way, with a tarmacked driveway providing parking and a neat front lawn adding to the kerb appeal. There’s also external access straight into the garage, making unloading the weekly shop a whole lot easier. No carrying ten bags of shopping through the house required!

Five bedrooms, detached, garage, garden and a sought-after Stone location? We’d say you’ve been dealt a pretty good hand. Full house, anyone?
