Introduction & Exterior

This superbly presented detached home in Aldridge is perfect for a family seeking a long-term move to a house that is ready to move into. The property is set back from Kingshayes Road behind a deep and full-width driveway that comfortably fits three cars and could fit six on with the double depth. The driveway is block-paved and features gravel edging and shrubbery to enhance the initial appeal. The driveway precedes the integral garage to the right side of the building which has a manual up and over door to enter.

The property comes with a fabulous rear garden that includes a circular patterned block-paved patio and well-maintained lawn. Attractive mature shrubbery has grown in front of the wooden fence perimeter. At the far corner of the garden (behind the trampoline on the photo graphs) is a handy wood store for the log burner. As there is no side access, there is a sheltered passage at the rear of the garage and therefore those needing to remove garden waste can do so without having to the move through the main body of the house.

Ground Floor

Guests enter the home via the recently replaced composite front door into a large porch which is easily large enough for a family of guests to remove coats and shoes at once. A subsequent door opens to an even more impressive large hallway. The hallway has a large storage cupboard to the right and doors leading off to the lounge and kitchen. Just beyond the cupboard is the carpeted staircase that winds up to the first floor gallery landing. The hallway floor is of a high quality vinyl tile and this continues into the kitchen and utility room.

The lounge is a sensational reception room that features high quality real wood flooring that is laid throughout both reception rooms. The lounge has a bay window at the front and a stunning log burner fireplace set within the chimney breast. Double doors at the rear of the lounge open through to a large dining room that comfortably holds an eight-seater dining table if desired. Sliding patio doors then lead to the conservatory, which has a panoramic view of the rear garden, vinyl tile flooring, and French doors to exit to the patio.

The kitchen has recently been replaced by the current owners to a stunning suite that has light quartz work surfaces and soft sage coloured unit facias. The suite has a range of integrated appliances and quirky features. These include a fridge freezer, pull-out pantry, four-ring induction hob with extractor fan, chest-height double oven, microwave, dishwasher and bin store. A composite one-and-a-half-bowl sink with drainer and traditional mixer tap is positioned in front of the window looking out to the garden. It’s worth noting that all windows throughout the home are double glazed.

A door near to the front of the kitchen at the right opens to a matching utility room. In here there are spaces with plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. The gas central heating combi-boiler is mounted high in the far corner, secluded within the units. A door at the front of the utility opens to a guest WC and a door to the right opens to the aforementioned sheltered side passage. As well as doors to the rear garden and garage, the passage has access to the understairs storage cupboard.

First Floor

As mentioned above, the first floor begins with a glorious gallery landing and this has a skylight window above to create extra natural light. From the landing there are doors leading off to all four double bedrooms and a significant family bathroom.

Bedrooms one, two and three each have a range of fitted or built-in wardrobes leaving a wide open area for a bed and any other desirable furniture to be placed. The fourth bedroom doesn’t include a wardrobe but has a large open space. A pull down loft hatch with folding ladder is position above the entrance to bedroom two, and the loft is a vast area that is fully insulated and has part-boarding.

The family bathroom features a remarkable suite that viewers will love. It comprises of a long bathtub, large walk-in double shower cubicle with storm shower head, two chrome towel radiators, and a large combi-unit with toilet, wash basin, and cabinets. Above the wash basin is a wall-mounted back lit mirror. The whole suite is complemented by complete tiling to the floor and walls.
