Description
"VILLAGE CHARM ON SWAN STREET"
Situated in the heart of the ever-popular village of Alvechurch, this charming TWO DOUBLE BEDROOM MID-TERRACED COTTAGE offers a wonderful opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers or those looking to enjoy village life with all the everyday conveniences on their doorstep. Beautifully combining traditional character with modern comforts, the property benefits from a cosy living room with log-burning stove, contemporary kitchen, ground-floor shower room and a PRIVATE SOUTH-FACING REAR GARDEN off communal courtyard – all within easy reach of open countryside, excellent transport links and the thriving village centre.
The property is approached directly from Swan Street, with the front door opening into a welcoming living room. Full of character, this cosy reception space centres around a feature log-burning stove, with useful alcove shelving and fitted window shutters adding both charm and practicality.
An inner hallway provides access to the remaining ground-floor accommodation, together with a particularly useful under-stairs storage cupboard.
Positioned to the rear, the kitchen comprises a range of fitted wall and base units with complementary work surfaces over, a feature ceramic double-bowl sink and drainer, electric cooker, integrated fridge/freezer and space for a washer/dryer. A breakfast bar provides a convenient spot for informal dining, whilst a rear door opens onto the shared courtyard.
Completing the ground floor is the contemporary shower room, fitted with a generous walk-in shower, wash hand basin set within a vanity unit and floor-to-ceiling metro-style tiling.
Stairs rise to the first-floor accommodation, comprising TWO GENEROUS DOUBLE BEDROOMS, both benefitting from fitted window shutters. The principal bedroom enjoys exposed timber flooring, a useful storage cupboard and access to the loft space, whilst bedroom two benefits from further fitted storage incorporating the central heating boiler.
Outside, the property enjoys the increasingly sought-after benefit of a PRIVATE SOUTH-FACING REAR GARDEN. Accessed via a shared courtyard and steps leading onto a barked pathway, the garden provides a peaceful retreat from village life. A raised decked seating area creates the perfect spot for morning coffee, summer entertaining or al fresco dining, whilst the remainder of the garden is predominantly barked, offering a low-maintenance blank canvas for the next owners to make their own. A timber shed provides additional storage.
