House For Sale £985,000
Bridgfords are very proud to bring to market 'The Old Villa', one of Alsager's Historic homes, which was built in 1852 for Thomas Walker who was the owner of an earthenware Factory in Tunstall. At the end of the 19th Century it passed to the Goss Family who were known worldwide for their falcon-crested souvenir porcelain. This substantial period property occupies a central position in the town yet is tucked away in a secluded location, and is beautifully sited within the plot of approaching ¾ acre, overlooking the gardens and grounds. The elegant building design and many of the original Victorian features have been largely unchanged by its owners throughout its history. The interior furnishings of this family home have been substantially and sympathetically improved over recent years and offer an adjoining, self-contained annexe, within the main building. The main part of the house comprises four reception rooms, quarry tiled hallway, newly replaced spacious kitchen which leads into the delightful conservatory complete with under floor heating, utility room, four spacious bedrooms with the master benefitting from an en-suite bathroom, plus the main family bathroom, and extensive cellar area, whilst the annexe offers its own kitchen, dining room, sitting room, bathroom and two generous sized bedrooms. Externally the property is very private and entered via the original cobbled driveway into a courtyard, where there is double garaging, leading on to a turning area providing ample off- road parking. The property is securely enclosed, including original Victorian walling, and has hundreds of plants which have been lovingly cared for and planted by the current owners to create the stunning formal gardens which also include ornamental and wildlife ponds and a new lean- to style greenhouse and potting shed. This truly is a one- off opportunity for you to own this delightful period home.
