THE PROPERTY
Tenure: FREEHOLD
EPC Rating: D ** Council Tax Band: C ** Rear Garden Orientation: North
Introduction & Approach
This remarkable family home has been completely renovated and redesigned to create open plan living and include an annexe. The finish throughout is to a very high standard that viewers will love. The property is a set back from Glascote Road behind a long concrete and gravel driveway that provides off-road parking for at least four cars. The house has two main composite front doors, one for the main house and another for a direct entrance to the annexe.
The ground floor extension has been built with foundations strong enough to support two storeys, and therefore there is further first-floor extension potential.
Ground Floor – Main House
Once through the main front door, viewers find themselves in a generous hallway with side window to ensure it is naturally bright. A door to the right-hand side provides access to a handy storage cupboard for cloaks and immediately ahead is a carpeted staircase leading to the first floor. A door beside the staircase enters through to living area.
Viewers will find this next room very impressive, as the entire ground floor of the main house is open plan. Owing to the extension at the rear, the reception space is very large and comprises of three clear areas; a dining space at the front, lounge in the centre and further sitting room at the rear, with a door to exit out to the garden.
Beside the lounge is a breakfast bar which is part of a huge island-style unit that is only connected via the original rear wall. This unit has space for three stools on the lounge side and has the kitchen sink incorporated into the granite surface on the kitchen side. The kitchen is very stylish and forms a galley-style formation as it continues to French doors at the rear. On either side there are white, hi-gloss facias with more black granite work surfaces incorporating a range of integrated appliances. These include a four-ring induction hob with trendy angled extractor fan above, two fan-assisted ovens, dishwasher, and fridge-freezer.
At the front of the kitchen is a door to access the utility room that has plumbing and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, as well as a further door to access the guest WC with wash hand basin. Beside the entrance to the utility, slightly set back, is a door to access the handy understairs storage cupboard. A door to the rear of the kitchen leads into the annexe.
Annexe
Ideal for families with a disabled, elderly, or teenage relative, this annexe offers independent living whilst still maintaining a connection to the main house and garden. As mentioned at the top there is a main front door from the driveway opening to a corridor hallway. From here there is sliding door access to a double bedroom and a shower room, with a glass panelled door for the reception room. A double-glazed window (all windows throughout the building are double-glazed) in the bedroom looks out to the front whereas natural light is provided to the hallway and reception room by roof skylights.
The shower room features a smart suite with a shower cubicle, rectangular wash basin atop a cabinet, toilet, and a chrome heated towel rail. The reception room includes a kitchenette that will be included with the sale and a set of French doors leading out to the garden. The reception room is where the door linking the annexe and main house is.
First Floor
The first floor is the original layout of the house however it has also been completely refurbished to create three freshly plastered and decorated double bedrooms and a superb family bathroom. The largest bedroom is at the rear of the house, overlooking the garden, and is a vast open space with plenty of room to position furniture. Bedrooms two and three are at the front of the house with bedroom two having a built-in storage cupboard over the stairwell and bedroom three having a recess perfect for a wardrobe. All three bedrooms are decorated white and feature carpeted flooring.
The bathroom is a great size and includes a fetching free-standing oval bathtub at the rear of the room with a curved shower cubicle at the front. Between these are the toilet, wall mounted wash basin and drawer unit and tall column radiator, with the whole suite beautifully complemented by herringbone wood effect flooring and stylish tiling to the splashback areas.
Rear Garden
The rear garden is an attractive and generous space for the whole family to relax and enjoy. It begins with a gravel stoned area spanning the full width of the plot before stepping down to a plush lawn, covering most of the ground available. Through the lawn is a decorative slabbed path that leads to a delightful patio with pergola that provides a peaceful seating area.
The wooden shed will be included as part of the sale and there are lovely shrubs and a mature tree that enhance the presentation. A decorative concrete wall and tall wooden fence provide a boundary around the whole garden to maintain privacy.

TRANSPORT LINKS
Glascote Road (aka the B5000) links Tamworth centre and Polesworth. Midway along this route is a junction with Marlborough Way that leads to the A5. This makes it easy for connecting to the M42 and A38 for commuting to places such as Birmingham, Lichfield, Nottingham, and Nuneaton to name a few. Those who don’t mind walking will enjoy a 20-30 minute walk to the Town Centre & Train Station, depending on pace.
For trains, Tamworth railway station is a major split level platform station operating on both the West Coast Main Line and Cross Country Line. This provides excellent access to major cities within mainland UK such as Birmingham, London, Glasgow, Nottingham and Liverpool to name a few.
Bus users will be delighted that a regular circular bus service to Tamworth town centre has stops on Glascote Road. This service runs up at least five times per hour on weekdays. Many further destinations are then available from Tamworth to places such as Birmingham, Sutton Coldfield and Burton on Trent to name a few.
SCHOOLS & AMENITIES
Parents will be delighted that, according to the Staffordshire Schools website, both catchment schools are well within a mile of this home. The secondary school catchment is listed as Landau Forte, Amington which is 0.6 miles walk or drive away. The Primary School is even closer, as Woodlands Primary is only 0.2 miles away. As with all areas, there are other local schools and it is highly recommended that you check with the local authority to confirm catchment.
