PROPERTY IN BRIEF
Ginger are delighted to present this three bedroom semi-detached home set within this peaceful location. Shenstone Drive is convenient to the village centre, local schools, and is great for taking a walk to Oakes Farm shop, or strolling across the fields on a nice day with the dog. The village offers a good selection of shops, amenities, pubs/restaurants and is ideal for commuting with major road, rail, motorway and air links.
The property delivers generous floor space, where on the ground floor is the welcoming hallway, a generous size living room, and to the rear, a large kitchen dining space stretching out into the conservatory, which is a great addition to this home, and onwards to the west-facing rear garden. There is also a downstairs cloakroom.
Upstairs, our two really spacious double bedrooms, as well as a surprisingly spacious third bedroom which could accommodate a double bed. The family bathroom offers a bath with the shower over.
The home enjoys a private front garden, and rear garden being west facing.
In addition, there is a private driveway to the side, with access to the garage, which is a larger than standard single size. There�s also an EV charger.
APPROACH
The property is located on Shenstone Drive, and on the corner of Whitnash Close, offering the benefit of a generous front garden with central pathway and mid-level hedges around for privacy. The path leads up to the front door, and continues around to the gate into the rear garden. The property also benefits from a driveway to the side as well as having a larger than most single size garage. There�s also an EV charging point.
LIVING ACCOMMODATION
Welcome inside the property. The hallway is spacious, the moment you walk in, you will have a sense of light and appreciate the accommodation that is available. In the hallway, the stairs rise to the bedrooms and bathroom, providing a useful under the stairs space for storage, push chairs, or perhaps a home-working desk. The hallway gives access into the front living room, the rear kitchen diner and the downstairs cloakroom.
The living room is a nice size, providing ample floor space for multiple sofas, media centre, and having a fire place with an electric fire set within. In addition, the feature bay window provides a shelf for family photos, whilst looking out into the private front garden.
The kitchen diner is located at the rear of the house, a nice open space, providing generous floor space, with a number of shaker-style kitchen wall and base units with contrasting worksurface space and splashback tiling around. In addition, there is provisions and space under the counter for washing machine, fridge freezers etcetera, as well as space for a single width cooker. The workspace has a good compliment of power sockets around for smaller appliances, as well as a 1 and a 1/2 sink and drainer with a view through the conservatory into the garden. A great social, entertaining and family space.
The dining section provides good floor space for a dining table, as well as having French doors leading out to the conservatory, and onwards into the garden.
The conservatory is a useful addition, added in 2017 delivering a flexible space, whether as a relaxing area, kids play space or office. Either way it boasts a nice secluded garden aspect. There are French doors linking the kitchen diner with further French patio doors into the garden.
The downstairs cloakroom has the continuation of the laminate floor from the hallway, providing toilet and hand wash basin with individual taps, a frosted double glazed window to the rear, and being home to the Worcester boiler. There�s good hanging space here for coats, kick off shoes, as well as having a central heating radiator.
BEDROOMS AND BATHROOM
Welcome upstairs. The landing is spacious, being neutrally presented and feature dado rail with contrasting colours. There is access into the loft, as well as a large airing cupboard which provides good storage for towels, linen and home to the hot water tank. The hallway also has central heating.
Bedroom number one is set to the rear of the house, enjoying a view down into the rear west-facing garden. This is a spacious bedroom, ideal for larger bedroom furniture, and the perfect wall setting for freestanding wardrobes. The bedroom is stylishly presented, neutral with themed wall covering, as well as large double glazed window to ensure plenty of natural light from the west facing aspect and central heating. A lovely light and spacious main bedroom.
The second bedroom is also a great sized double, ideal for the younger member of the family needing more of their own space, perfect for a double size bed, leaving plenty of additional floor space for wardrobes, desks or gaming stations. This bedroom is brightly presented, with large double glazed window looking into the front garden, with central heating radiator and ceiling light.
What we really like about this style of property is that the third bedroom although the smallest, is a really generous size single, and could if needed accommodate a double bed. This is a great room for the younger member of the family, having a nice neutral presentation, with window providing front garden view and central heating. Alternatively, if you work from home and need a spacious home office, then this room will take care of your needs easily.
The bathroom offers a modern suite which includes a bath with shower set above, a handy recess shelf for toiletries, a white vanity unit with wash basin above a handy storage space, and a WC with dual flush. We particularly like the wooden floors which add a touch of traditional character to the space, with the walls being panelled for ease of cleaning. There�s a frosted double glazed window to the rear elevation, as well as a large ladder radiator and spotlighting.
OUTSIDE SPACE
The property is east facing to the front and west-facing rear garden, which means the morning sunrise to the front, and the garden will enjoy the sun in the afternoon and evening.
We like how this property has a good garden space to the front and rear. As we talked about earlier, the front has a generous private garden, with access to the rear garden, and where the rear garden provides a nice peaceful place to sit and relax or a safe place for the kids to play. The rear garden has a patio, with access to the conservatory, as well as a garage to the side with parking at the front.
GARAGE
The property enjoys a larger-than-usual singe garage to the side with driveway in-front. The garage gas rear garden access and windows as well as vehicle door to frontage.
