Introduction & Exterior

This outstanding family home in the highly desirable village of Stonnall will prove very popular to smaller families who love to entertain and also those who are looking for a home that is ready to move into. The property is right on the outskirts of the village and therefore has gorgeous views to the rear from the garden and rear windows.

We may as well start with the rear garden, which has been fabulously landscaped using retaining sleepers to segregate the attractive slabbed patio, raised lawn and shrubbery / flower beds. A second intimate patio has been laid at the far end of the garden beside the rear fence to take full advantage of the views. The rear fence is at waist-height to provide privacy and maximise this delightful outlook.

Returning to the front, the house is set back from Cartersfield Lane behind a charming front garden and a block paved driveway that curves to the left to provide plenty of off-road parking. The driveway continues beside the house to the sheltered entrance and garage, that opens to a store room due to the rear being converted to the utility room.

Ground Floor

Viewers enter the home to the side into the hallway where, even at this early stage, they will appreciate that this is a well presented home due to the tasteful décor and striking wood flooring. An immediate door to the left opens to the lounge at the front of the house, with a door at the far end to access the kitchen at the rear. Two further doors in the hallway access handy storage cupboards. Just in front of the entrance to the kitchen is the carpeted staircase that leads up to the first floor landing.

The lounge is a wonderful reception room that spans the full width of the main building and features two windows including a large, bowed window. Both are double-glazed, along with every other exterior door and window in this home. Dining is taken care of in the kitchen, allowing the lounge to be solely designated for family relaxation, and therefore this room is plentiful to hold a family sofa suite and entertainment unit. The chimney breast has been blocked off but is still present should someone consider a fireplace in the future.

Arguably the best room in the house is the remarkable extended kitchen. It comes with a stylish hi-gloss suite with quartz work surfaces that protrudes into the centre of the room culminating at a breakfast bar. The sink is brilliantly cut into the surface with a mixer tap above. Integrated within the suite is a range of appliances that includes a chest height oven with a microwave combination oven (2 years old), dishwasher, and a large induction hob with modern overhead extractor fan. A large recess within the suite is available for an American fridge freezer. There is a space on the tiled floor for a sofa to be positioned and a cupboard housing the central heating combi-boiler. Two sets of French doors with open to the rear patio and, along with the side windows, provide an abundance of natural light.

A door to the far right of the kitchen opens to the utility room that has another hi-gloss suite with plenty of work surface space and another sink with drainer. Spaces are available for a washing machine and tumble dryer. Three doors from the utility room open to the garage, guest WC and a door out to the patio.

First Floor

Guests make their way up stairs to a carpeted landing that has doors opening to all three bedrooms, the family bathroom and a deep storage cupboard above the staircase void.

Bedroom one is positioned at the front of the house having a large window overlooking Cartersfield Lane. The room has a range of fitted wardrobes and access to a trendy en suite shower room. The en suite comprises of a pedestal wash basin, toilet, chrome towel rail, and double shower cubicle. This is all complemented by attractive tiling to the floor and walls.  

Bedrooms two and three are positioned at the rear of the house, having the best views of the countryside to the rear. Bedroom two is actually the largest bedroom in the house, being an impressive double. Bedroom three is a long single bedroom that is currently utilised as a home office.

The family bathroom has a similar style suite to that of the en suite shower room. Instead of a shower cubicle, the bathroom has a bathtub with shower and screen fitted above, supported by a pedestal wash basin and toilet.
