Introduction & Exterior

This remarkable family home in Tamworth, a short journey from junction 10 of the M42, will prove extremely popular to buyers seeking a larger home that is ready to move into. The property holds an elevated position, set back from Mickleton behind an attractive, full-width, block-paved driveway. The driveway can hold three cars with ease and precedes a double garage that has a wide manual up-and-over door to access. Viewers will enter the home to the left of the garage where there is a wood-effect, composite front door opening to the hallway.

To the right of the garage is a secure gate that opens to the side passage leading round to the rear garden. Down the side of the house there are two doors to enter the double garage and utility room. The garden is landscaped with a flagstone patio at ground level, laid around the conservatory and offering plenty of space for an outdoor furniture set. The patio has gravel to the borders.

A short brick retaining wall is in place as the garden rises to the lawn. A block-paved path curves through the lawn to a decked seating area at the far left of the garden. A combination of flowers, shrubbery and thick foliage is found at the lawn borders, with tall wooden fencing erected to the boundaries.

Ground Floor

As viewers enter the home via the composite front door, they will immediately be impressed with the long hallway having a gorgeous real wood floor. There is plenty of room for guests to remove coats and shoes before taking the option of the door to the lounge, double doors to the kitchen, the carpeted staircase to the first floor, or the guest WC to the right which includes a wash hand basin.

The lounge is a marvellous large reception room at the front of the house that features a continuation of the wooden floor from the hallway. The current owners have added a media wall that features recesses for a flat screen TV and sound bar, as well as there being a stunning tempered glass electric fireplace that has features a light show of flames and mood lighting set within real logs.    

Arguably the best room in the house is a remarkable kitchen that is open planned with the dining area and the conservatory. The kitchen spans the entire width of the house, a full thirty-four feet, and has underfloor heating beneath stylish textured floor tiling. To the right of the room is the suite which features lots of units with low profile stone composite work surfaces. The suite is fitted with a range of integrated appliances including a dishwasher, fridge freezer, wine refrigerator, and an extractor fan over the Rangemaster oven, which will also be staying as part of the sale. The Rangemaster has a delightful tinted, easy wipe mirror as the splashback.  Fitted to the one-and-a-half-bowl sink is a filtered Qettle mixer tap that offers instant boiling water as well as standard hot and cold.

At the front of the kitchen section are two doors; one for the understairs storage cupboard and one to access to utility room that features a matching suite with spaces for a washing machine and tumble dryer, and a cupboard housing the central heating system boiler. The boiler feeds the water tank located in the first floor airing cupboard.

At the left of the kitchen is an open area that we have noted as the dining space, although the current owners have it set out as a sitting room / snug. Between this and the kitchen is a breakfast bar, a perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee. The dining space is opened with the large conservatory that has been modified to include an insulated roof with skylight and spotlighting. Double-glazing allows for a panoramic view of the garden and a set of French doors provide an exit to the patio.  

First Floor

Guest will love the gallery landing on the first floor, especially those who enjoy placing artwork. A window at the side provides plenty of natural light and doors from the landing lead off to all four bedrooms, the family bathroom and the aforementioned airing cupboard. Above the landing is a hatch to access a thickly insulated loft.

The largest bedroom in the house is at the front left and is an impressive double bedroom with a row of wardrobes built into a recess at the rear of the room. To the right is a door opening to a stylish ensuite that includes a walk-in shower with glass screen and storm shower head. The suite is completed by a wall-mounted wash basin, toilet, chrome heated towel rail, radiator, electric shaving point, underfloor heating beneath a tiled floor.

The remaining bedrooms are arranged across the rear of the house. These comprise of two double bedrooms either side of a generous single bedroom that is currently utilised as a home office. The left double bedroom, bedroom two, includes a range of fitted wardrobe and dressing table furniture.

The family bathroom is another pleasant suite that comprises of a bathtub with glass screen and electric shower fitted above, pedestal wash basin, radiator, toilet, mirrored cabinet, tiling to the splashback areas, and vinyl flooring.
