4 Bedroom Detached House

Driving along Locks Heath Park Road, you cannot fail to be impressed by the variety and character of homes on this lovely wide road. Set back from the road with a generous forecourt providing off-road parking, this detached chalet-style home was built in the late 1950s/early '60s and has been in the same ownership since 1969. The driveway continues down the side of the house, with double gates leading through to a prefabricated garage.

A large porch with tiled flooring opens into the hallway, where there is built-in storage and stairs rising to the first floor. To the front of the home, the generous sitting room could also be used as a ground-floor bedroom if required, particularly as there is a shower room with walk-in shower directly across the hall. There is also a separate study overlooking the side of the property, complete with plenty of built-in storage.
Spanning the rear of the home is a sociable dining/family room and kitchen with utility area. The kitchen is fitted with a good range of units, including a large pantry cupboard and an island unit with pop-up power. At the far end, the open utility area provides further sink space and practical tiled flooring.

The kitchen flows through to the dining/family room, where quality oak flooring, a wood-burning stove and double doors into the garden room create a warm and welcoming living space. The garden room itself is a particularly lovely addition, with a vaulted ceiling, high-level glazing and Velux windows drawing in plenty of natural light. With tiled flooring and underfloor heating, it is both practical and cosy - an ideal spot to sit and enjoy the outlook over the garden.

From the hall, the staircase with wrought iron detailing leads up to the first-floor landing, where a walk-in airing cupboard provides excellent storage. To the front of the house, the principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes and access into the eaves for additional storage. The second bedroom also has fitted wardrobes and enjoys a view over the garden to the rear. There are two further bedrooms either side of the landing, both with eaves storage, one of which also benefits from its own ensuite, making it an ideal guest room. The ensuite and family bathroom are both fitted with modern white suites and attractive tiling.

Outside, the westerly-facing rear garden is a real haven and one we hope the next owners will enjoy tending. The patio steps down to the lawn, with well-stocked borders and mature ornamental and fruit trees helping to create a good degree of privacy. At the far end of the garden there is a productive growing area with compost bins and a greenhouse.  The home also benefits from owned solar panels and solar water heating tubes, helping to provide electricity and hot water, with surplus energy fed back into the grid to generate an income.  This is a home with a great deal to offer, and one that is best appreciated in person.
