Situated within the highly regarded residential setting of Laurel Gardens, Locks Heath, this immaculately presented and thoughtfully extended four-bedroom detached home offers exceptional family accommodation, modern efficiency and outstanding entertaining space. The property is offered with no onward chain, making it an ideal opportunity for buyers seeking a smooth and timely move.

Since purchasing the property in 2009, the current owners have undertaken a comprehensive programme of improvements and extensions, creating a home that is both highly functional and future-proofed. A front porch extension provides a welcoming and practical entrance, setting the tone as you step inside.

The heart of the home is the impressive rear extension, completed in 2014, which has transformed the ground floor into a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and family room. Designed as a true hub of the home, this space is ideal for everyday family life as well as entertaining, featuring underfloor heating in the extension and Karndean flooring throughout. Heating and hot water are provided by a highly efficient Samsung air source heat pump, which was replaced around five years ago.

To the front of the property is a separate lounge/snug, enhanced by a feature log burner, creating a warm and cosy retreat. The ground floor is completed by a downstairs cloakroom and a separate utility room.

On the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms, three of which benefit from air-conditioning. The principal bedroom enjoys a generous en-suite shower room, complemented by a modern family bathroom accessed from the landing.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The resin-bonded driveway, installed in 2019, provides parking for several vehicles and incorporates a 7kW electric vehicle charging point. The rear garden was fully remodelled in 2015 to create a low-maintenance yet attractive outdoor space, featuring sandstone paving and artificial lawn for year-round use.

A fully powered bar / BBQ hut with granite worktops, provides a superb social and entertaining area, while a detached 3m x 4m outbuilding/log cabin offers excellent versatility. Fully air-conditioned and currently used as a gym , it would also suit home working, hobbies or studio use.

Further notable upgrades include fully owned 2.2kW solar PV panels on the south-facing roof, registered under the Feed-in Tariff and generating an average return of approximately £500 per annum, triple-glazed windows, upgraded electrical distribution boards with RCBO protection, and extensive air-conditioning throughout the home.

Presented in immaculate condition throughout, this is a high-quality family home in one of Locks Heath’s most desirable locations, combining space, efficiency and lifestyle features rarely found in a single property.
