Beoley Road East, Lakeside, Redditch, Worcestershire, B98

Picture this... coffee by the lake on Saturday, feet up by the log burner on Sunday.

Set on a quiet, friendly stretch of road on the Lakeside side of Redditch, this well presented three-bedroom mid-terrace has been steadily improved by its current owners. Inside, a lounge with a log burner opens through to a kitchen/dining room across the back, with a ground floor bathroom off the rear. Upstairs there are three good-sized bedrooms. Outside, a generous, low maintenance garden leads to secure vehicle gates and private parking at the rear.

We asked them what made them buy it...

"We already knew the house well before we bought it, so we knew exactly what it needed. What sold us was the road. It's a very quiet, friendly street, even with the buses coming round, and with the local shop and the town so close you really feel part of the community. Everything you need is close to hand: shops, cafés, takeaways, pubs, the doctors and the dentist, and there are social clubs nearby too. Our favourite place is Arrow Valley Lake. It's a lovely lake and park to walk round, with a café and a bar there as well. Honestly, it's the convenience we'll miss most."

What about the house itself?

"Since we bought it in 2016 we've had a new roof, a new boiler and central heating, a new kitchen, new double glazing and new doors inside and out. We had the wiring checked and did a lot of replastering. Then we put the log burner in, and everyone who visits loves it, especially in winter. Most of the time we don't even need the central heating because it warms the whole house. In summer the living room stays nice and cool, and the back is south facing, so it's lovely and warm out on the patio until the sun goes down. I still spend a lot of time working from home in the office, which is the third bedroom. We used to have a touring caravan, so we set the back up to suit that, and now we park the car there or out the front. It's ready to move in. Just put your own colours in, with the comfort that the big jobs like the roof have been done professionally."

Our agents say...

That rear parking is the headline. Secure vehicle gates and private, enclosed parking behind a terraced home is something buyers rarely find, whether you've got a car, a van, or a caravan of your own. The garden itself is generous and low maintenance, so your weekends go on enjoying it rather than mowing it. Inside, three good-sized bedrooms give you room for a growing family or visiting guests, and the kitchen/dining room makes a sociable hub for everyday meals. Then there's the location. Redditch town centre and the Kingfisher Shopping Centre are within walking distance, with local schools close by, Cross City trains into Birmingham from Redditch station, and the motorway network not far away. Best of all, Arrow Valley Country Park is a walk away, with a flat path all the way round the lake and the Boathouse Café at the visitor centre looking out over the water. Ideal for first-time buyers, or anyone wanting a home where the big jobs are already ticked off. Get in touch today and come and see it for yourself.
