Introduction, Exterior & Garage
This fabulous extended period home in the heart of the Chadsmoor area of Cannock will prove extremely popular to first buyers and those seeking a long-term move. With it being an older home, the property has been built with front access to the house directly off the Church Street pavement. However, car owners will be delighted to know that there is a communal passage to the rear of the property where there is a single car driveway preceding a long tandem garage.
The garage stretches over thirty feet in length and includes power supplied. Therefore, the new owners could either use this to store two cars with ease, as a workshop, or as an additional place to relax. By moving through the garage, viewers will access the private rear garden with begins with a decked area for seating before continuing down to block-paving with lawn and gravel border to the right. Tall wooden fencing to both sides and a painted brick wall at the far end help maintain privacy.
Ground Floor
Upon entering the home through the front door, viewers will immediately be impressed with the homely appeal the presentation gives in the lounge. Attention will be drawn to the stunning log burner fireplace and the room is made bright by a large, double-glazed window to the front. It’s worth noting that all windows in this home are double-glazed. The staircase is to the rear of the lounge and has a traditional, distressed wooden look that buyers will love.
Beyond the staircase is a door to a very impressive dining room that has been opened with the kitchen and extended to create a passageway to the rear of the house. This passageway has a wonderful, vaulted ceiling with two skylights to provide natural light. The dining room has another, yet more niche, log burner fireplace. There is plenty of room for a family dining table and a row of units to the left of the room that stretches all the way to the rear of the kitchen. These units include wall-mounted display units, space for an American-style fridge-freezer and a lovely Belfast sink. There is space within the galley-style kitchen for a range oven.
At the rear of the passageway is a door through to the rear porch which doubles up as a utility room as there is plumbing and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. The rear porch has a door leading outside and a door to the left to access the Guest WC. This superb addition includes a toilet, wash basin, chrome heated towel rail and is also where the central heating combi-boiler is located.
First Floor
The landing area features a corridor that has a continuation of the distressed wooden flooring from the staircase. From here there are doors leading off to both bedrooms, the family bathroom and a fixed alternating step ladder leading up to the attic room.
The master bedroom is at the front, spanning the full width of the house and is therefore a fantastic-sized double room. The second is a single room that includes plenty of space for a single bed and has a storage closet that makes excellent use of the void above the staircase. Both bedrooms feature chimney breasts from the reception rooms below and therefore this enhances the heat efficiency during the winter months.
The family bathroom is absolutely outstanding. It features a stylish suite that is likely to be kept the same by the new owners, for many years. It features an L-shaped bathtub with storm shower fitted over, wide wash basin unit, toilet, and a chrome heated towel rail. There is also a wide storage cupboard to the right of the entrance.
Finally, the attic room cannot be legally classed as a bedroom due it’s access but has all the look and feel of one. It has a skylight roof window for natural light and carpeted flooring. There is plenty of space in the open eaves for further storage.
