- no chain - This Lincoln Avenue property is a substantial 1930's style, three bedroom, semi detached home offering spacious rooms, high ceilings, an expansive garden, off street parking and plenty of opportunity to expand both into the roof space and outwardly subject to planning.
Properties of this size in this area rarely come to market as they are ideal for families growing all the way from nursery through to university e.g. The current owners have held the property for more than 17 years. Viewing is therefore highly recommended particularly for “second movers” looking for a long term family home.
- property description -
Perfect for an expanding family. Bedrooms one and two are truly “king sized” rooms with space for either king sized beds (european king pictured) and plenty of other furniture or for multiple children’s beds. Bedroom three would make an ideal nursery or will accommodate either a full sized single bed or loft bed for an older sibling however would be equally suited as an office as it already has a telephone/broadband point. The bathroom is an exceptional size for a semi-detached house with both a very large shower cubicle and full sized bath plus a cavernous cupboard to store all those products.
Decorated in light tones (as is all of the house) the downstairs of the property is airy and spacious thanks to the high ceilings, bow windows in the dining room and the virtually floor to ceiling french door arrangement in the lounge/office area. This pair of large rooms offer space for plenty of furniture while still maintaining flow and the fitted crockery/storage cupboards alleviate the need to use the kitchen cupboards for anything but kitchen utensils and groceries. The shelving above them is ideal to display collectables or as bookshelves. The downstairs toilet being located immediately adjacent to the back door means that children don’t have to take shoes on and off and troop through the house when nature calls in the garden!
Externally the front of the property offers off street parking behind a low wall for at least two and probably three vehicles depending on their size and orientation. A street light provides a free security light covering the entire area. To the side of the house a pair of substantial gates with fleurs-de-lys style spikes provide security to the rear of the property through which two further vehicles could be parked toward the garage. However the side of the house would probably be best suited to caravan storage if required.
The south east facing rear garden of the property stretches a full 30 metres into the distance. Walking from the back door you cross a very large patio (the full width of the house) with the garage to your right, you then step down onto an even wider lawned area and then to some steps which descend onto the main lawn. Either side of the steps are areas for planting which once you have descended the steps are in effect raised beds. The first part of the lawn is large and flat and suitable for children's ball games or swings, play houses etc. It then slopes to the bottom of the garden. Privacy and security is provided by established trees, shrubs and hedging.
In terms of expansion potential there are examples of rearward, sideward and upward extensions in the vicinity including the annexing of detached garages.

- area description -
The property is located on the south side of Lincoln Avenue which is a leafy and very quiet road which has virtually no traffic during the majority of the day. With easy access to junction 15 of the M6, the avenue has primarily medium to larger semi detached houses with a handful of detached properties. This home is one of the earlier built, larger, semi-detached houses on the avenue.
All but one of the 11 primary schools within a one mile radius have been rated as good by Ofsted.
It is situated within easy walking distance (less than half a mile heading east) of Royal Stoke University Hospital, Springfields Retail Park (Iceland, B&M, Halfords, Pets At Home, McDonalds), an Aldi, a Tesco’s and the M Club Spa and Fitness Gym on Newcastle Road and a SimplyLocal convenience store, hair and beauty salon, tanning salon, barbers and restaurant on the Clayton Road parade of shops to the north.
It is less than one mile south of Newcastle-Under-Lyme High Street which can be walked to through Lyme Brook Valley Parkway which contains two playgrounds (the one closest is for younger children and just four minutes walk away), a bmx track, skatepark, basketball court, public exercise equipment and sports pitches. You would also pass Homebase, Morrisons and Costa on the way.
It could be argued that depending on where you work you could live on Lincoln Avenue and not need a car. However, if you do, Springfield Garage is less than half a mile away so you can drop it off for an mot or service and walk home within minutes.
Note: Distances/measurements are direct (as the crow flies) and approximate.
