Property description

This charming 1950’s detached residence is in a highly regarded area of Bromsgrove and has approved planning permission for an extension.

Description

The current owners have modernised this home, including replacing the boiler with a Baxi combination boiler, new wiring, plastering, adding double-glazed windows and doors, solid oak interior doors, boarded part of the loft with the addition of lighting and a ladder. This magnificent home has comfortable accommodation, and simply by updating the kitchen and bathroom it would offer an extremely smart and well-proportioned family home.

As you enter you are greeted by a generous and welcoming reception hall which leads around to a study/office area. There are stairs to the first-floor and doors off to the cloakroom and principal reception rooms. The cloakroom has a quarry tiled floor, WC and a vanity hand basin.

The dual aspect front living room has a very light and airy feel. There is also a lovely sitting room to the rear with an attractive fireplace housing a solid fuel wood-burning stove, set on a hearth with mantle over. A particular feature of this room are the lovely double doors with glazed panels to either side opening onto the patio and garden. There is also the potential to extend across the back of the house to really open up the living space.

The dining area/kitchen has enormous scope to develop by incorporating the rear lobby, old cloakroom, and laundry room. The kitchen has the original quarry tiled floor and chimney recess which is the perfect place to fit a Range-style oven. Additionally, there is access to the garage from the rear hall.

First floor
The landing has access to the roof space, a window to the side on the half-landing, a further window to the front aspect and doors to the bedrooms and bathroom.

The bedrooms are all doubles, with the rooms to the rear having lovely views over the garden. The master bedroom has triple aspect windows and is flooded with light. Bedroom three is also filled with natural light from the dual aspect windows.

The bathroom is waiting to be upgraded or if an extension is done it will then become the hall into the new bedroom and house bathroom.

Gardens and grounds
The house sits on a superb plot with a lovely frontage, private driveway parking and a lawned fore garden with spring borders. There is pedestrian access to either side of the house and a lovely enclosed rear garden with floral beds, a lawned garden, as well as patio seating areas, perfect for alfresco dining and entertaining.

Planning Permission
The current approved planning permission is for a 3-meter extension to be built at the back of the property to create an open plan living/kitchen/dining area, the utility room will remain unchanged by the plans. Further planning permission has also been obtained for a first-floor extension over the garage to create a fourth bedroom and a large house bathroom.
