backwater setting standing in a large lot of over a third of an acre in total

Tettenhall Village centre - 0.4 miles, Wolverhampton - 2 miles, Birmingham - 17.5 miles (distances approximate)

Location - The Green House stands in a beautiful setting in a conservation area with charming views across the Lower Green. The property benefits from considerable privacy by virtue of many matured and screening trees and yet is within easy reach of the varied local facilities available within Tettenhall Village, the Newbridge shopping parade and the Compton shopping village. There is easy access to Wolverhampton City Centre and the area is particularly well served by schooling in both sectors.

Lower Green is a delightful, backwater setting comprising the picturesque open spaces of the Green itself with some lovely period properties and the historic St Michael and All Angels Church.

Description - The Green House comprises a substantial, three-storey period residence which is Grade II Listed for its architectural merit. The house has a beautifully balanced three bay façade which is typical of the period and is believed to have been built in approximately 1794. There are very few Georgian houses of this calibre remaining within Tettenhall and The Green House is unquestionably one of the finest examples.

The accommodation is of some depth and character with many period features remaining which are now allied with some excellent modern appointments throughout.

The current owners have carried out many works of improvement during their tenure. New drains were laid, the house was rewired and the upper storey was reconfigured. The most notable improvement has been the creation of an outstanding Living Kitchen by well known specialist, Bernard Savage Interiors.

The setting is one of the finest attributes of the property with a walled and private frontage, a gated drive and a garage together with a superb, landscaped and walled rear garden.

Accommodation - A front door with a central, porticoed surround opens into the HALL with old oak flooring, picture rail and dado rail, a door leads to the CELLARS with two rooms, one of which has a barrel vaulted ceiling and one of which has a Worcester Bosch central heating boiler and Megaflo pressurised cylinder with light and power throughout. The DRAWING ROOM is a fine, formal reception room with a light corner aspect with a walk in bay to the side, a window to the front with shutters, an elegant limestone fireplace with solid fuel burning stove, dado rail and ceiling cornice. The DINING ROOM has a walk in bay with a delightful aspect over Lower Green, an unusual curvature to the ceiling, a pine fireplace and wooden flooring. An INNER HALL with quarry tiled floor leads to the GUEST CLOAKROOM with an authentic period suite, quarry tiled floor, part metro wall tiling and picture rail and there is a STUDY which is an ideal space for those wishing to work from home with fitted cupboards and picture rail.

The focal point of the ground floor is the OUTSTANDING LIVING KITCHEN which is a room of much merit. Well known specialists Bernard Savage Interiors undertook the works of extension and refurbishment and the hand crafted kitchen is beautifully put together with granite working surfaces and large centre island with breakfast table end. There is a four oven Aga set within an inglenook surround, a Siemens dishwasher, an integrated tall larder fridge. There is a deep, walk in bay to the side providing ample space for a dining area with the sitting area having bespoke cabinetry with concealed space for a media wall with the provision for a cinema screen having been installed. The entire room has a superb, vaulted ceiling and oak flooring throughout. The room is particularly well lit with windows to three elevations. A door opens into the adjoining LAUNDRY with bespoke cabinetry, space for a washing machine, tumble dryer and freezer and an undermounted ceramic sink with butchers block surface together with quarry tiling to the floor.
