THE PROPERTY

Tenure: FREEHOLD

EPC Rating: C **  Council Tax Band: D

Introduction & Exterior

Available with No Upward Chain, this remarkable family home on the Abbots Gate development will prove extremely popular to those seeking a home with a generous garden and one that is ready to move into. Lindisfarne is a no-through road that branches off into cul-de-sacs and this property sits proudly at the centre end of a cul-de-sac and therefore has a plot that widens toward the rear. 

The plot begins fairly wide at the front as there is a two car driveway that precedes a single garage, with an attractive lawn and tree to the side. Naturally those wanting more driveway can change the garden as many properties on the development have. The garage has a manual up-and-over door to enter from the front and a secure gate to the right of the house provides access to the garden.

Viewers will absolutely love this garden as the current owner has beautifully maintained it over a number of years, and it has woodland behind meaning it isn’t overlooked. As explained above, the plot widens to the rear giving a much wider garden than the house. Standout features include a pergola with block-paved pavement, a pond, lawns, gravel edging with shrubbery, and a deep slabbed patio. There are two large aluminium sheds that will remain as part of the sale and a gravelled secluded area is available to the side.  

Ground Floor

Entering through the composite front door, viewers are brought into a welcoming entrance hallway that stretches the whole length of the house and therefore offers an abundance of room to remove coats and shoes. The flooring is of good quality wood-effect laminate and a carpeted winding staircase is positioned at the back of the house. A large arched window midway up the stairwell provides plenty of natural light into the house and it’s worth noting that all external doors and windows are double-glazed.

From the hallway there are doors leading off to the lounge, dining room and kitchen. Immediately to the right is access to a guest WC with wash basin and there is a handy storage cupboard that makes excellent use of the area under the staircase.

The lounge stretched the full length of the house and has the wonderful addition of a bay window at the front. Sliding patio doors at the rear of the room provide an exit to the garden and there is a gas fireplace mounted to the left wall. As dining is provided in a separate room, the lounge is a vast room to be designated for family relaxation that will impress viewers. Onto the dining room, this generous space is located on the opposite side of the hallway at the front of the house and holds a six-seater dining table with ease.

The kitchen features a modern suite that has a range of wall and base mounted units as well as integrated appliances. These include a five burner gas hob, overhead extractor and electric oven. There are clear spaces for a fridge freezer and microwave available and the composite one-and-a-half-bowl sink with drainer sits in front of the window to look out to the beautiful garden.

At the right side of the kitchen is a door that opens to a matching utility room. The utility room features another sink with drainer, an integral dishwasher and sliding bin store, and houses the gas central heating boiler. A door to the front opens into the rear of the garage and a door to the rear offers an exit to the garden patio. The garage is home to the plumbing for a washing machine, and having clear space for a tumble dryer also.

First Floor

Moving upstairs, viewers will be delighted to find a gallery landing where they can hand a range of artwork and photography if desired. The landing is roomy and has doors leading off to all four double bedrooms and the family bathroom. There is also another handy storage cupboard and a hatch to access a generous loft space.

The master bedroom is positioned at the front right of the house and includes a built in wardrobe and access to a stylish en suite shower room. The en suite comprises of a shower cubicle, toilet, wash basin and chrome heated towel rail, all complemented by attractive tiling.

The family bathroom is similarly stylish, having a white suite that comprises of a P-shaped bathtub with shower and curved screen fitted above, pedestal wash basin, toilet, wall mounted mirror and a chrome heated towel rail. Again, the walls are fully tiled with a desirable finish.

The remaining rooms are bedrooms two, three and four. Bedroom two is another fabulous double bedroom that would happily be considered a master bedroom in other homes, whereas bedrooms three and four are smaller double bedrooms that could be utilised large single bedrooms. Bedroom four is currently used as a home office by the current owner.

TRANSPORT LINKS

The Abbots Gate development is located off the Glascote Road (B5000) which links between Tamworth centre and Polesworth, passing through Glascote where there is a junction down to the A5. This makes ease for connecting to the M42 and A38 for commuting to places such as Birmingham, Lichfield, Nottingham and Nuneaton to name a few. Those who don’t mind walking will enjoy a 20-30 minute walk to the Town Centre & Train Station, depending on pace.

For trains, Tamworth railway station is a major split level platform station operating on both the West Coast Main Line and Cross Country Line. This provides excellent access to major cities within mainland UK such as Birmingham, London, Glasgow, Nottingham and Liverpool to name a few.

Bus users will be delighted that a regular circular bus service to Tamworth town centre has stops on Glascote Road. This service runs up at least five times per hour on weekdays. Many further destinations are then available from Tamworth to places such as Birmingham, Sutton Coldfield and Burton on Trent to name a few.

SCHOOLS & AMENITIES

Parents will be delighted that, according to the Staffordshire Schools website, both catchment schools are well within a mile of this home. The secondary school catchment is listed as Tamworth Enterprise College which is a less than a mile walk or drive away. The Primary School is even closer, as William MacGregor Primary is a quarter mile walk away. As with all areas, there are other local schools and it is highly recommended that you check with the local authority to confirm catchment.

Amenities wise, at the beginning of the development, there is a Co-operative convenience store just across the canal off the Glascote Road. For a larger shop, Tamworth has a plethora of supermarkets and retail parks which are all within a 5-10 minute journey - the closest being a recently opened Aldi, also on the Glascote Road

As with the majority of Tamworth, you are never far from a designated walkway and cycle path leading toward the town centre. The canal mentioned above is the Coventry which runs along the side of the estate providing more scenic walking. Tamworth is also home to the historic Castle as well as the Snowdome, Leisure Centres, Odeon Cinema and Ten Pin Bowling Alley amongst other places of interest.
