Blacklake Farm, Hilderstone Road, Stoke-On-Trent, Staffordshire, St3
Nestled in a highly sought-after semi-rural location, Blacklake Farm is an exceptional, architect-designed residence that offers the perfect blend of luxury, style, and practicality with every detail meticulously considered. Thoughtfully extended and upgraded to the highest standard, this stunning five-bedroom home combines modern comfort with timeless elegance, to create a truly spectacular family home.
Crafted with Imperial Engineering bricks, Staffordshire blue roof tiles, and stone lintels, this remarkable home exudes charm and quality. Aluminium and cast-iron guttering enhance its aesthetic appeal, while underfloor heating on the lower level ensures warmth and comfort throughout. High-end finishes and outstanding craftsmanship create a spacious and inviting atmosphere.
Approached via a cobbled driveway, the property is secured by electric gates that open onto a gravelled drive, leading to a grand u-shaped turning area with a central fountain, creating a grand first impression. The double garage, featuring an electric up-and-over door, power, lighting, and loft storage, provides both secure parking and practicality.
Upon entering through a composite front door, you are greeted by a spacious reception hall featuring a striking solid oak staircase, immediately setting the tone for the exceptional craftsmanship found throughout.. A versatile front reception room offers a choice of uses, whether as a snug, dining room, home office, or playroom. The warmth of a multi-fuel wood-burning stove adds character to this inviting space.
Across the hall, the impressive triple-aspect sitting room with a defined dining area is bathed in natural light. A Hollington sandstone fireplace, housing a multi-fuel wood-burning stove, forms a focal point, while bi-fold doors lead onto the rear terrace, creating a seamless connection to the garden.
The show-stopping heart of this home is the expansive open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room – the result of a stunning recent extension designed for modern living, entertaining, and everyday comfort. The stylish and highly functional kitchen area is fitted with sleek high-gloss cabinetry, quartz work surfaces, and an impressive range of high-end integrated appliances, including a refurbished four-oven aga, additional range cooker, American-style fridge freezer, dishwasher, and wine cooler. A central island with breakfast bar, an inset sink with integrated drainer, and a striking roof lantern further elevate the space, allowing for both practicality and an abundance of natural light. The adjoining dining and family area offers ample space for relaxed seating and social gatherings, complemented by bi-folding doors and two sets of French doors opening out onto both the side and rear Indian stone terraces and garden beyond, blending indoor and outdoor living effortlessly. Completing the ground floor are a guest WC, a walk-in pantry/boot room, and a well-appointed utility room, all designed with convenience in mind.
The first floor features a luxurious master bedroom with a walk-out balcony offering stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Bespoke fitted wardrobes and a beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom with a freestanding bath, marble tiling, and a walk-in shower create a perfect retreat. Two further double bedrooms on this floor each benefit from en-suite shower rooms and fitted wardrobes, both finished to an equally high standard.
A second solid oak staircase leads to the top floor, where two generously sized double bedrooms each benefit from built in wardrobes, their own en-suite shower rooms and Velux skylights that capture breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. These rooms are ideal for older children, guests, or a private home office.
Externally, the gardens are as impressive as the interior and have been beautifully landscaped to enhance the property's setting. The front of the property is framed by well-maintained lawns either side of the central driveway, setting the property back from the road and creating a grand sense of arrival. To the side, an Indian stone terrace provides an ideal setting for summer dining and entertaining, continuing seamlessly to the rear where it is complemented by a generous manicured lawn and a tranquil brick-built waterfall feature that flows into a peaceful pond – all set against uninterrupted views across open countryside and neighbouring fields.
This magnificent home is not only visually captivating but comes with an architect’s certificate and a current warranty, offering peace of mind alongside its remarkable design. The property is equipped with a range of additional high-quality features, including an external hot tap, a 300A three-phase electrical supply with multiple electric vehicle charging points, an external security camera system, and a fully integrated data cabling network.
Set in a desirable semi-rural location, Blacklake Farm combines peace and privacy with excellent connectivity. The nearby village of Meir Heath offers convenient amenities, while the market town of Stone, just a short drive away, provides independent shops, restaurants, and a regular Farmers Market. For commuters, the property benefits from easy access to the A50, A34, M6, and mainline rail services. The area is also served by a range of highly regarded schools, both state and independent, making it an ideal location for families.
This truly exceptional home is a true gem, offering a perfect blend of luxury, practicality, and modern living, beautifully crafted to meet the demands of modern family life and is a must-see to fully appreciate its remarkable features.
