Description
Approached via a driveway providing off-road parking for one vehicle—with further ample on-road parking available—the property opens into an entrance hallway with access to a convenient downstairs WC and a store cupboard. A door leads into the generous lounge, which has recently had new carpets fitted (as have the stairs, landing, and all bedrooms within the last six months). Beyond the lounge is a stylish kitchen/diner fitted with modern wall and base units, integrated appliances, ample storage, and space for family dining. A door from the kitchen provides access out to the rear garden.
Rising upstairs, the first-floor landing gives access to a well-proportioned double bedroom one, a further double bedroom two, a generous bedroom three, and a family bathroom with a shower over the bathtub. The landing also houses a useful cupboard store.
Moving outside, the rear garden enjoys a raised timber decked area with steps leading down to a lawn, followed by a second decked seating space and gated access to the rear.
Further benefits include gas fired central heating, double glazing throughout, solar panels for reduced energy rates, and a part boarded loft space with pull down ladder.
Set on a pleasant no-through road, the property is conveniently located for local shops, schools, and amenities, while also being within one mile of Bromsgrove Town Centre, which offers a wider range of supermarkets, leisure centres, restaurants, and bars. There is also easy access to major road links including the M5 and M42 for further commuting.
