Fauld Manor, Fauld, Staffordshire, DE13

Ground Floor

The home is entered via ornate wooden doors leading into a storm porch and then into a fabulous hallway with stone flagstone floors and the ornate main staircase rising to the first floor. The home features stone mullioned windows with leaded windows inset throughout, and the ceiling heights make all the rooms feel light, airy and undoubtedly spacious.

The principal lounge is a gorgeous room featuring period cornicing, a large stone fireplace and dual-aspect windows. There is then a further dining room, again with leaded windows overlooking the rear garden. This room further features a large stone open fireplace and feature cornicing.

Accessed off the dining room, a door leads through to a further family room. This is a lovely space for relaxing in front of a log burner, and adjacent to this is a wine cooler and drinks area with built-in cabinetry, and there is a door leading out to the back garden terrace.

Located off the hallway, there is also a formal study room, which is well-appointed with a range of quality storage units and a desk, and a wood-panelled wall surrounds and, therefore, it is perfect for those looking to work from home.

Also located off the central hallway is a useful utility room plus a further boot room and a separate WC. The home also benefits from a large cellar split into two separate chambers which is fully tiled and houses the oil-fired boiler and provides great space and is currently used as a games room, complete with a pool table.

The breakfast kitchen is a truly stunning room which has been recently installed by the current owners. The kitchen area features a large central island unit, complete with granite work surfaces and inlaid wine coolers. There are Miele Appliances throughout the kitchen, including a combination steam oven with Sous Vide option, combination oven with a microwave. There is also a warming draw and a vacuum packing drawer. In addition, a multi-purpose induction hob including both teppanyaki and wok stations. These are inset into the island unit along with sink units incorporating a Quooker boiler tap with filtered chilled and sparkling options. There is also a dishwasher and a great seating area. There is also a 5-oven electric Aga. Above this island unit and the dining area are glazed roof lanterns flooding the room with natural light. The designer kitchen has bespoke cabinetry of the highest standards, and the room itself runs the whole width of the home.

There is a dining area and bifold doors leading out to the spectacular gardens. There is also a snug room accessed off the kitchen, making this such a family-friendly space and the heart of this home.

Another standout room of the property is the bar, which is accessed from the kitchen and is another recent improvement created by the current owners. Stepping into this room is akin to entering an exclusive wine bar, which has a full bar area complete with working ale taps, wine coolers, display cabinets and bar stools. There is a media wall, further seating area and bifold doors leading out to a secluded garden complete with a hot tub. There is also a separate WC and sink unit located within the bar, and both the open-plan kitchen and bar area feature a Sonos sound system.

The final reception room is part of a former cottage, and this area could still be used as this. Independent external access leads into a lovely lounge room, again with a log burner, and a staircase leads to a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and an ensuite bathroom featuring a dressing area, walk-in shower and separate bath area.

First Floor
The remaining bedrooms are accessed on the first floor, which is served by 2 independent staircases, with the main feature staircase rising to a landing area which features exposed beams and vaulted ceilings and a large leaded picture window overlooking the rear grounds. The master bedroom is a lovely-sized room overlooking the rear gardens and benefits from a large full en suite bathroom. There are then three further double bedrooms plus a current dressing room which could easily be reconfigured as the fifth bedroom within the main house. There are then two further refurbished bathrooms plus a separate WC.

Outside
The grounds of Fauld Manor are an exceptional feature of this home. The property is nestled in the centre of 2.57 acres of grounds. There are two electrified gates which serve the property, and there is plenty of parking on offer via sweeping driveways and a turning circle to the front of the home plus an adjacent parking area where there is a triple garage block with a gym room over plus a further separate double garage.

The main gardens are simply breathtaking with many years of landscaping and planting, which offers a floral treat all year round. Immediately to the rear of the property and accessed off the kitchen is a large flagstone terrace with an electric awning over, stone balustrades, and the gardens are then accessed, featuring formal lawns and walkways and ornamental hedging. There is a variety of seating areas, including a large koi pond with a feature fountain.

The gardens are completely private and enclosed and therefore offer a high degree of security and privacy for future buyers.
