THE PROPERTY

Tenure: Freehold

EPC Band: E  **  Council Tax Band: B

Introduction & Exterior

Available with No Upward Chain, this charming period home on Coventry Road will be especially of interest to First Time Buyers, and those happy to make improvements to realise the home of their dreams.

The property is set back from Coventry Road holding an elevated position behind a lovely from garden that has a tall retaining wall beside the pavement. A private gated and sloped pathway leads from the pavement and along the side of the house, round to the rear door which is used as the main entrance. There is also a shared gated pathway to access the front door.

Viewers will find the rear garden very impressive. It has a great length across two main areas of lawn separated by a row of conifers. At the far end is a gravel patch for positioning outdoor furniture, and there is a wooden shed in place which will be left.

Parking

At present the house is without off-road parking. A council-owned carpark is located behind the garden and neighbouring properties in the terrace have gated access from this. Whether there are permits that can be obtained or whether access can be granted to create a driveway onto the property is unknown. The present owners park on nearby Church Lane when visiting the property without any issues.

Interior

The ground floor comprises of two generous reception rooms that measure the exact same size, with a galley kitchen at the rear. The first floor follows the same footprint with bedroom one being the same size at the lounge, the bathroom being the same size as the galley kitchen, and bedroom two plus the corridor landing being of the same size as the dining room below. The property is double glazed and has gas central heating, with the combi-boiler located in the kitchen.

The lounge has a beautiful, exposed brick chimney breast that, at present, holds a gas fire. The gas fire isn’t in use, especially as the gas central heating is so efficient, and so can be removed to make a lovely feature. An option is also there for a log burner if desired. The dining room has had its chimney breast removed many years ago and therefore has an abundance of space for a family dining table to be positioned. An opening at the front of the dining room has a staircase leading up to the first floor, with a welcome space underneath storage.  

The galley kitchen has a fairly modern wood-effect suite installed with roll-top work surfaces. Integrated within the suite is an electric oven, four-burner gas hob with extractor hood, and a stainless steel sink with drainer. Clear spaces are available for a washing machine and fridge freezer. The rear entrance door opens into the kitchen at the front of the room.

As mentioned above, bedroom one is the same size as the lounge and is therefore a terrific master bedroom. Bedroom two is a narrower double bedroom and benefits from a cupboard that makes excellent use of the void above the stairwell.

Finally, the family shower room consists of a corner shower cubicle, pedestal wash basin and a toilet. The walls are completely tiled, and wood-effect laminate flooring is laid underfoot.

SCHOOLS & AMENITIES
