Introduction & Exterior

This outstanding home located in a sought-after part of Aldridge with stunning countryside views to the rear will delight families seeking a long term move. Amongst the many features of this home, buyers will love the amount of reception space, bedroom sizes and the generous rear garden.

The property is set back from Whetstone Lane behind a decoratively laid block-paved driveway that has enough parking space for three cars, as well as a raised area of shrubbery with a palm tree at the front to enhance the initial appeal. The driveway ends at a garage that has double opening doors to access and enough space for a car. There is power and lighting available inside the garage.

To the left of the house is a secure gate that leads through to the rear garden, passing a side door to access the kitchen, beside a deep storage cupboard. As the house is extended to the rear, there has been a patio laid surrounding this that offers plenty of options for outdoor furniture. From the patio there are steps leading down to the lawn which has two main sections that are surrounded by mature and attractive shrubs to the borders. At the far end of the garden there is a large wooden shed and tall wooden fencing is erected to the boundaries.

Ground Floor

Guests enter the home via a porch that has plenty of room to remove coats and shoes before taking a second door through to a generous hallway. The hallway runs along the house from right to left with doors leading off to a sitting room, kitchen, dining room and a guest WC with wash basin. There is also a door to access a handy storage cupboard underneath the staircase.

The sitting room is positioned at the front of the house and was the main lounge before the extension was built. It features a large, bowed window to the front to allow in lots of natural light. It’s worth noting that all external doors and windows are double-glazed.

The dining room is a generous reception room that can easily hold a large family dining table and has a large opening to the rear through to a bright lounge with two large windows having a view out to the garden and patio. The lounge covers roughly two thirds of the extension, with the remaining third being a home office that is accessed from the lounge. The office is perfect for those working from home and has a set of French doors leading out to the patio.

As well as from the hallway, there is a door from the dining room that opens through to the kitchen. The kitchen features a modern suite fitted to the left, right and rear walls that includes a range of base and wall mounted units and granite work surfaces. Integrated within the suite is a dishwasher, oven, grill, induction hob and an overhead extractor fan. There are also spaces for a washing machine and fridge freezer. At the front of the kitchen is a low level storage cupboard.

First Floor

Moving upstairs, guests arrive at a lovely gallery landing with large side window to make it lovely and bright. Similar to the hallway below, the landing runs across the first floor and has doors leading off all three bedrooms and the family bathroom. Above the landing is access to a large loft space.

Both bedrooms at the rear of the house have outstanding views of the countryside towards Staffordshire. Bedroom two is a generous double bedroom whereas bedroom three could either be classed as a small double bedroom or a large single room.

Bedroom one at the front of the house has a similar footprint to the lounge immediately below, spanning the full width of the first floor and featuring a range of wardrobes fitted to the left of the room. Finally, the family bathroom is a very stylish room that comprises of an L-shaped bathtub with shower fitted above, wash basin atop a storage cabinet, a toilet, and a heated towel rail.
