THE PROPERTY

Situated on a delightful and sought after cul-de-sac of detached properties in Great Barr, this detached family home is likely to draw lots of interest. Holding the first plot to the left as you arrive in Newton Square, viewers will note its elevated position with a single car drive way in front of a single garage, and fore garden to the side - therefore having potential for a larger drive if need be. The garage is home to the condensing boiler for the gas central heating.

The house is entered via the front door, immediately into a decent sized porch, large enough for guests to remove their coats and shoes. From here viewers will enter the hallway where there are doors leading off to the lounge, dining room, kitchen and guest wc, with the staircase to the first floor incorporating an under-stairs cupboard.

Viewers will note that the décor needs updating, but they will also notice the vast size of all of the rooms giving this house the potential to be a sensational long term home. The rear left door from the hallway is the dining room which currently easily holds a large six-seater dining table and therefore has the potential for more, perfect for those festive get-togethers!!

The lounge is the largest room in the house as it has a recess where the sofa is currently located (see photos), and a feature gas fire. There are also slide patio doors to the rear from here. The kitchen has the original units from when the property was built but once inside you there is a lot of space for redesigning and potentially including an island.

Moving upstairs, this home has a wide open landing space with doors off to all four double bedrooms, family bathroom and airing cupboard. Each bedroom has a fitted wardrobe and chest of drawers and room for a double bed. There are single glazed windows to both bedrooms three and four.

Finishing outside, this home has a fabulous size rear garden that begins with a patio having access down both sides. The garden itself is mainly lawn with shrubs to the borders, wooden fences to the boundaries and a garden shed to the back. The garden is private and therefore summer entertaining is also a perfect option for those who enjoy a good barbecue!!
