Summary
This classic mid-century home is brimming with potential including opportunity to extend (subject to necessary planning permissions) and features a sizeable rear garden with gate providing direct access to the Worcester and Birmingham canal towpath. The property is located just a short distance from village amenities, sought after schooling, train station and popular country walks.
Description
The accommodation comprises: Enclosed double glazed porch, generous living room with gas fire, floor to ceiling front window and an original reeded glass door to a second reception room with storage cupboard and sliding glazed door to the garden. The kitchen features a pantry cupboard and space for a freestanding washing machine, cooker and tall fridge/freezer. An adjoining lobby provides access to a WC and the garage.
The first floor offers a double bedroom overlooking the garden, second double bedroom, single bedroom (all with fitted storage) and shower room with cupboard containing the hot water tank.
Outside
Predominantly laid to lawn with a raised bed at the back, the rear garden’s size provides ample room for creativity, with plenty of space for landscaping, a vegetable patch, or even a stylish patio area. Surrounded by fencing and mature greenery, it offers privacy and tranquility, making it the perfect retreat. A gate at the bottom of the garden provides direct access onto the towpath of the Worcester and Birmingham canal - renowned for a splendid 30 mile walk ending at Gas Street Basin in central Birmingham.
The front driveway offers parking space and access into the garage. The drive could be opened up further to create further parking.
Location
The residence is situated approximately 0.5 miles from the centre of Alvechurch, conveniently located for Crown Meadow first school and Alvechurch C of E middle school as well as shopping and eating facilities within the village centre, easy motorway access, main bus route, popular country walks and railway station (0.7 miles away). Also, nearby are the facilities offered by both Barnt Green village (1.3 miles) and Redditch (4.4 miles).
The Worcester and Birmingham Canal connected the Black Country to the sea by providing a link to the River Severn, opening trade routes to the world. The canal bustled with barges carrying freight in and out night and day. Nowadays tourist boats keep the canals busy. The route is also well renowned with walkers. The route is 30 miles long (recommended over two days) and has a total of 58 locks including the 30 Tardebigge Locks, one of the largest lock flights in Europe.
