Description
THE PROPERTY
Tenure: Freehold
EPC Rating: C ** Council Tax Band: C
Introduction & Exterior
This fabulously presented three-storey home on the sought-after St. Matthews development on the fringes of Burntwood will prove extremely popular to those seeking a home that is ready to move into, and those who work from home. The latter is owing to a marvellous Garden Cabin at the far end of the rear garden that makes a wonderful home office. The cabin would also work very well as a gymnasium, play/games room, or somewhere to relax in peace away from the house.
Between the Garden Cabin and the house is a delightful private garden that has a lawn with gravely path weaving down the centre. Attractive flowers and shrubs are planted to the borders with tall wooden fencing to the boundaries. A slabbed patio is laid beside the rear of the house and conservatory and a gated passage leads from the front of the property.
The property is set away from Sister Dora Avenue on a private block-paved drive that leads to a semi-detached garage block of which the garage for this home is the one to the left (shown by a white arrow on the main photo). The house is positioned to the immediate right of the garages and has steps leading down to the main front door. A leafy tree and slate patch to the left of the entrance enhances the initial appeal.
Ground Floor
Guests enter the home into a long hallway that is perfectly roomy for guests to remove coats and shoes. Even at this early stage, guest will appreciate that this is a very well looked after home with tasteful décor and gorgeous Karndean flooring. Doors lead off to the kitchen, lounge and a guest WC, with the winding staircase leading up to the first floor at the far right. The guest WC includes a wash basin and toilet, as well as a window to the side to allow plenty of natural light. It’s worth noting that all windows throughout the home are double glazed.
The kitchen features a modern suite that is fitted around three walls and therefore includes a range of wall and base mounted units along with plenty of work surface space. The ceramic sink and drainer is positioned in front of the window looking out to the frontage. An integrated electric oven and gas hob is in place with overhead extractor fan. Clear spaces are available for a washing machine (with plumbing) and a fridge freezer.
The lounge is the largest room on the ground floor and was designed with relaxing and dining in mind. There is, however, a gorgeous conservatory added to the rear of the lounge that can easily take a dining table, where family and guests can dine with a lovely view of the garden. This allows the lounge to be freed up purely for a large sofa suite if desired. A gas fireplace is mounted to the right side of the room and there is a handy low-level storage cupboard at the front of the room that makes great use of the void below the staircase.
First Floor
The first floor landing has plenty of wall space in and around the stairwell for artwork and family photos if desired, and has a lovely, spindled banister that continues round to the second staircase leading up to the second floor. Doors lead off to the two supporting double bedrooms and the family bathroom.
At the rear of the first floor is bedroom two which is a superb-sized bedroom that spans the full width of the house and features a row of built-in wardrobes at the front of the room. Bedroom three is at the front of the house and is a smaller double bedroom, but still a great size, and also has built-in wardrobes at the rear of the room.
The family bathroom features a pleasant suite with a long bathtub, toilet and pedestal wash basin included. A chrome heated towel radiator is in place and there is attractive tiling to the splash back areas.
Second Floor
The prospective principal occupants of this home will love the second floor as it is solely dedicated to the master bedroom. A vast open bedroom allows for a king sized bed and there is an abundance of built-in storage available via a deep cupboard at the front-right and a dressing area at the rear of the room that features two further, deep wardrobes.
A door at the rear of the room opens to an impressive en suite bathroom. Originally a shower room, the owner has spared no expense in swapping this out for a lovely L-shaped bathtub with screen and shower fitted over, complementing this with a large wall-mounted wash basin unit that includes storage drawers. A toilet and chrome heated towel radiator complete the suite with an obscured window allowing in natural light from the rear.
