Set in the sought-after hamlet of Levedale, this substantial detached home offers a rare combination of size, flexibility and countryside surroundings, making it an outstanding choice for buyers seeking a long-term family home with real presence.
Approached via an expansive block-paved driveway, the property immediately makes an impression. There is extensive parking to the front, together with a detached double garage and double car port, giving the kind of practicality and kerb appeal that is increasingly hard to find. The setting is a major part of the attraction, with a semi-rural feel and open countryside close by, while Stafford and its amenities remain within convenient reach.
Inside, the accommodation is both generous and versatile, extending to over 2,800 sq ft overall according to the floorplan. The standout lounge diner is an exceptional main reception room, measuring over 24 feet in length and offering plenty of space for both formal dining and relaxed family living. With its excellent proportions, natural light and direct access out, this is a room that will immediately resonate with buyers looking for somewhere to entertain and unwind.
A particular feature of the ground floor is the impressive sun room positioned to the front of the property. Filled with natural light and enjoying an attractive outlook across the sweeping frontage and driveway, this is a highly versatile additional reception space, ideal as a sitting room, reading area, welcoming reception room or an everyday family space.
The separate living room gives further flexibility, which is always valuable for modern family life, while the kitchen is another major selling point. Spacious and well appointed, it features an extensive range of units, generous worktop space and a central island, creating a proper heart-of-the-home kitchen with both character and practicality. A guest WC completes the ground floor.
The first floor continues to impress with four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with dressing room and en suite, alongside a stylish family bathroom. One of the bedrooms is also well suited to use as a home office, ideal for buyers wanting dedicated workspace without compromising bedroom numbers.
On the second floor, the property offers an excellent additional bedroom suite with its own en suite, creating a superb guest room, teenager’s space or even an alternative principal bedroom. This adds another layer of flexibility that broadens the property’s appeal.
Outside, the property continues to deliver. The generous plot, large frontage and semi-rural setting combine to create a home that feels both private and impressive. For buyers wanting a village-style setting without feeling isolated, Levedale strikes a fine balance, offering countryside living with easy access to Stafford, commuter routes and everyday amenities.
This is far more than a standard detached house. It is a substantial and highly versatile home with space to grow into, space to entertain, and a setting that gives it genuine distinction.
Local information for buyers
Levedale is ideal for buyers who want a more rural setting without feeling cut off. The hamlet sits to the south of Stafford, so you get the benefit of open countryside and a quieter lane-side setting while still being within easy reach of the county town for shops, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants and day-to-day services. Stafford Borough also offers a wide range of parks and open spaces, with Victoria Park in the town centre and a broader network of borough parks across the area.
For commuters, Stafford is a real plus point. Stafford station offers strong West Coast Main Line connectivity, with direct services to London Euston and direct trains to Manchester Piccadilly, while Birmingham is also an easy rail destination from Stafford. The station itself is well equipped, with parking and accessibility features that many buyers will value for regular travel.
Road links are another advantage. Staffordshire’s travel information highlights the county’s strong road connections, and buyers in this location are well placed for access towards the M6 corridor. Penkridge Market is also a useful nearby amenity, trading weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays and being easily reached from M6 Junctions 12 and 13.
For leisure time, Stafford gives buyers more than just practical convenience. Victoria Park is a Green Flag award-winning town park on the River Sow, Stafford Castle and its visitor centre sit just outside the town, and the Gatehouse Theatre adds a year-round cultural offer in the centre. Together, that gives the area a good mix of outdoor space, heritage and entertainment.
For families, there are a number of schooling options in the wider Stafford and Penkridge area. Official sources list Penkridge Middle School, Wolgarston High School and Stafford Manor High School among the nearby state options, and Ofsted records recent inspections for those schools. School suitability and catchment can change, so it is best to advise buyers to make their own checks directly with the schools and local authority.
