THE PROPERTY

Tenure: FREEHOLD

EPC Rating: C  **  Council Tax Band: A 

Introduction & Exterior

Quite possibly the best house on the development, this remarkable family home that was refurbished in 2023 will prove incredibly popular. The house is available with no upward chain and will therefore interest first time buyers, and families seeking a faster move.

The property is set back from Caledonian at the very beginning of the road and therefore holding a generous plot on the outskirts of Glascote Heath, backing onto the Silver Link Road and providing fast access to commuter routes. A tarmac drive provides off-road parking for at least three cars, with the left part of the drive preceding a deep garage for a further vehicle. The garage has a manual up-and-over door to enter.

The property comes with a very private rear garden. Being a wide house, the garden naturally follows the same width and is therefore generous without being terrifically long. The garden comprises of a seating patio, lawn with soil borders and a combination of brick wall and wooden fence boundaries. There is also a brick-built storage shed connected to the house to the right of the garden, ideal for housing a lawn mower and other tools.

Ground Floor

Viewers enter the home via the porch at the far end of the driveway, beyond the garage. Inside the porch are the meter cupboards, rear access to the garage and a further secure door into the hallway. Even at this early stage, it’s clear that this is a magnificent home that has been excellently staged by the current owners. Wood effect vinyl flooring is laid underfoot, and this continues across most of the ground floor. From the hallway there are doors leading to the kitchen with dining area, the lounge, and a guest wc with smart wash basin atop a cabinet. There is also the carpeted staircase that features recently fitted storage cupboards underneath that has made a real difference to the current owners.

The lounge is a wonderful large reception room that has plenty of light allowed in by an elevated bay window to the front and sliding patio doors at the rear. It’s worth nothing that all windows are double glazed. The main focal point of the lounge is the addition of a fabulous media wall. Buyers will be impressed that media wall can be accessed via a cupboard behind, located in the dining area. This makes wiring a doddle and keeps it out of sight.

Arguably the best room in the house is the stunning kitchen with dining area. Measuring at a width of over sixteen feet, this room will be enjoyed by the whole family and is an ideal place to entertain guests, with another set of sliding patio doors leading out to the garden. The right-hand part of the room is designated for dining as it a wide-open space that could easily hold a six-to-eight-seater table.

The suite itself is incredibly stylish and is fitted to the three walls at the left of the room. It hosts a range of integrated appliances that include a chest height oven, dishwasher, four ring electric hob and overhead extractor fan. The fridge freezer and washing machine shown in the pictures are purely for illustrative purposes with the latter having plumbing available behind.

First Floor

Before reaching the top of the stairs, viewers will spot the decorative feature wall with spotlighting immediately ahead – a lovely touch. Just beside this is a shallow window that provides a surprising amount of natural light to the landing. From the landing there are doors leading off to all four bedrooms and the family bathroom.

The bedrooms comprise of two generous doubles and two singles. All bedrooms are carpeted, plastered and feature plenty of sockets as well as a double-glazed window. Originally a three-bedroom property, the large second bedroom has had the front part segregated to produce bedroom four and it works ever so well.

Lastly, we have the family bathroom. Again, a very stylish suite, the bathroom features a bath with shower and retractable screen fitted over. There is also a toilet, pedestal wash basin and a chrome heated towel rail. This is all complemented by attractive easy-wipe cladding to the walls. A cupboard behind the entrance door houses the new central heating combi-boiler. Above the entrance to the bathroom is access to the sizeable loft via a standard hatch.

TRANSPORT LINKS

To the north of Glascote Heath is the B5000 Glascote Road heading towards Tamworth Town Centre.

SCHOOLS & AMENITIES

Viewers with children will be delighted to learn that this home lies within catchment of the well regarded Landau Forte Academy (Secondary) in Amington. The Staffordshire schools website does not show a catchment primary school although there are ten (10) primary within a mile of this home, including catholic schools. As with all properties, we advise that prospective buyers make their own enquiries with the local authority to confirm catchment.

Amenities wise, in the centre of Glascote Heath there is a convenience store within walking distance, with a recently opened Aldi supermarket on the nearby B5000 Glascote Road.
