A substantial and well-proportioned detached home, Muse House occupies a discreet position on Barlaston's Wedgwood Estate, built in 2019 by David Wilson homes.
Extending to over 3,500 sq. Ft, Muse House offers an excellent balance of formal reception rooms and practical day-to-day living space, creating a versatile and highly functional layout. Set behind a private frontage with driveway parking and a detached double garage, the house presents a balanced and attractive appearance. The front door opens into a grand central entrance hall with feature staircase, from which the principal ground floor accommodation radiates. There is a useful storage cupboard and guest WC off.
The sitting room is a particularly impressive space, extending to over 22 ft, enjoying good natural light, open fire and providing an excellent setting for both formal entertaining and everyday living including French doors to the garden. The dining room mirrors this scale and is well positioned for hosting, with direct access outside and back to the entrance hall.
The kitchen/breakfast room forms a key part of the house, offering generous proportions and ample space for informal dining and family life. There is a range of wall and floor cabinetry, all set beneath a solid worksurface, and incorporating a range of appliances including full height fridge, full height freezer, dishwasher, pair of ovens, pair of combination ovens, wine fridge, and gas hob. This area is supported by a separate utility room, while a snug provides an additional reception space suited to family use. A dedicated study completes the ground floor accommodation, offering a quiet and practical space for home working.
The staircase rises to a spacious galleried landing which provides access to well-balanced bedroom accommodation.
The principal bedroom suite is arranged to one side of the house and incorporates a generous bedroom, dressing area and en suite facilities, with the added benefit of access to a private balcony. A second bedroom suite also benefits from its own dressing room and en suite, creating an ideal guest space. There are three further bedrooms on this level, all well-proportioned with fitted wardrobes and sharing a family bathroom with separate shower.
Gardens and grounds
The property benefits from a private setting with surrounding gardens and outdoor space arranged for ease of maintenance and enjoyment.
