Introduction

This beautiful, character home perfectly positioned between Tamworth town centre and train station (within a 5-minute walk of each) will prove very popular to those who love period homes, are after plenty of space, and are looking for a home that is ready to move into. Built in 1895 on the appropriately named Victoria Road, the house is set back from the pavement behind a short wall with railings and a gate to access the low-maintenance frontage with tiled path leading to the solid wooden front door.

Ground Floor

First impressions of the interior will be incredible as viewers enter the home directly into dining area of a remarkable open plan kitchen. Luxury solid oak herringbone flooring has been laid throughout this room, and this continues into the separate lounge to the right. The lounge has glass-panelled double opening doors to access and it’s a delightful snug room for the family to relax. Both the lounge and dining room have chimney breasts with decorative fireplaces set within.

The kitchen suite is very stylish and features a range of integrated appliances. These include a NEFF fridge freezer dishwasher, four-burner gas hob and electric oven. A ceramic Belfast sink with mixer tap is set within the units in front of the sash double-glazed window that looks out to the garden. An eye-catching feature in the kitchen is the original stove which features a bread oven.

At the rear of the dining area, to the left of the kitchen entry, is door to access a cloakroom and guest WC which has tiled flooring, panelled walls and a traditional suite with column radiator. A short corridor to the right of the kitchen leads to the winding staircase rising to the first floor. Just before this is a door into the utility room that includes a suite with sink and plumbing for a washing machine. The gas combi-boiler is also present in here. An exit door at the rear opens to the bricked pathway.

First Floor

The winding nature of the staircase allows for a delightful gallery landing, perfect for home owners who love to display artwork and family pictures. From the landing there are doors leading off to all bedrooms and the family bathroom.

All three bedrooms are generous double rooms, and each has a chimney breast with decorative iron fireplace surround. The treated wooden floorboards are exposed in each room to enhance the presentation. Bedroom one at the rear left of the first floor has a fitted wardrobe to the recess of the chimney breast. Bedroom two has a fitted wardrobe to the recess of the chimney and integrated floating shelves.

The family bathroom completes the home perfectly with a traditional suite that includes a bathtub with claw ball feet, pedestal wash basin, toilet, and a column radiator. Chequered black and white flooring befits this stunning Victorian home.

Parking & Rear Garden

Parking on Victoria Road and the surrounding streets is only available to permit holders and these are very reasonably priced for annual renewal. Wide double gates to access the rear garden are available with access across the neighbouring home to the left from Albion Street. The garden is currently lawned with a seating patio and garden shed in place. The gates do offer potential for off road parking, as this was the case when the current owners bought the property. Wooden fencing and a brick wall are erected to provide the boundaries.
