THE PROPERTY

This fabulously presented first floor maisonette in the Boney Hay area of Burntwood will delight first time buyers and those looking to downsize mainly, due to its interior space, garage and private rear garden. The property is set back from Deal Avenue with a pathway leading up to its own private front door on the ground floor. Once inside the main front door there is a short porch area before viewers make their way up the staircase onto the main landing / hallway where there is a double-glazed window to the side providing plenty of natural light.

From the hallway there are doors leading off to all rooms which include both bedrooms the lounge kitchen and family bathroom. There is also a hatch above with pull down loft ladder to access a large boarded loft offering extra storage space. The first two rooms on either side are the bedrooms, with the master being at the front of the home and the second bedroom at the rear. The carpeted master bedroom includes a handy built-in storage cupboard at the front of the room that makes excellent use of the void above the stairwell. The second bedroom has wood-effect laminate flooring. Both bedrooms are good-sized double bedrooms with both having a large, double-glazed window.

The family bathroom is next to the second bedroom. This includes a delightful and clean, white suite that features a bathtub with shower fitted over, wash hand basin, a towel radiator and toilet along with an obscured double-glazed window and tiling to the splashback areas.

The lounge is a very impressive reception room that is positioned at the front of the home and features another large, double-glazed window and wood-effect laminate flooring. There is plenty of room for the new owners to position a family sofa around an entertainment unit, as depicted in the photos (not included in sale). There is a gas point behind the unit for a gas fire if desired. 

The final room is the kitchen which is another generous room with a lovely suite and has enough space for a small dining table. The suite includes a low-level double oven, four-burner gas hob and a cooker extractor fan. There is plumbing place for a washing machine and slimline dishwasher and further space for a fridge freezer. There is a breakfast bar along the left-hand wall and the stainless steel sink with drainer positioned in front of the double-glazed window.

Moving outside, a gate to the side of the front door leads through to a right of way that again leads to the securely gated rear garden. There is also access to a shared storage cupboard positioned under the staircase. The garden for this home is surprising large and provides a sun trap for relaxing and entertaining. The garden is mostly lawn with a patio area position to the rear of the garage where this is also an outside tap and external power point. French doors lead into the garage where there is further power supply and lighting making it versatile as a home gym, workshop or office. The manual up and over door is still in place at the front of the garage should the new owners decide to store their vehicle.
