Description

*Traditonal & Extended Four Bedroom Detached Family Home *Excellent Condition Throughout *Two Reception Rooms *Log Burner *Re-Fitted Kitchen *Downstairs WC *Four Well Proportioned Bedrooms *Modern Shower Room *Driveway For Several Cars *Integral Garage *Large Rear Garden *Garden Room/Bar
A well appointed and substantially extended detached home situated in one of Halesowen's most popular neighbourhoods. The location falls within the catchment of a number of popular primary and secondary schools making this a great location for families. Blackheath town centre, Halesowen, Birmingham, and several junctions of the M5 are within easy reach.
The property is approached via a generous driveway providing parking for several cars and leading to the integral garage. The ground floor comprises an enclosed porch, welcoming hallway, lounge with log burner and bay window, separate dining room, recently re-fitted kitchen, and a utility room providing additional storage and access to the rear garden. The kitchen comprises a range of matching units to wall and base, a contrasting work surface, and integral appliances including a double oven, microwave, five ring hob, dishwasher, washing machine, and tumble dryer.
The first floor landing leads to four suprisingly large bedrooms (no box rooms!), a modern shower room, and access to the loft space. With this amount of bedroom space the property is ideal for a growing family or a professional couple needing an office for home working.
To the rear of the property is a large garden with a patio area, brick built storage shed/WC, lawned area with gravel pathway, rear patio with garden shed and garden room/bar. With power having been recently added, the garden room is a great space for entertaining or could be re-purposed as an office or games room.
In summary this is a substantial and well presented family home and viewing is very highly recommended.
