Description

Summary
A RARE OPPORTUNITY to purchase a charming three bedroom Victorian cottage which has undergone a series of upgrades by the current owner and also benefits from a REAR PARKING SPACE. The property is situated in an idyllic semi-rural location yet within close proximity to local amenities within Alvechurch and just a stone's throw from the train station, popular public house and the Worcester and Birmingham canal. 

Description
The accommodation comprises: Open entrance hall, charming lounge with open fire and built in alcove shelving/cupboards leading to an open plan farmhouse style kitchen/dining room with garden access and ground floor shower room. Both the lounge and kitchen/diner feature stunning black cast iron radiators. 

A set of stairs from the kitchen leads to two first floor bedrooms and a third bedroom/loft room is accessed via bedroom 2, featuring eaves storage. 

Outside
The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn with fenced boundaries and pathway leading to an area of hard standing. Beyond the garden lies an area suitable for rear parking, with vehicular access via a shared private road off Scarfield Hill. 

Location
Set in a semi rural position within Alvechurch, the property is conveniently located close to the Worcester and Birmingham Canal, Alvechurch Marina, train station and local public house, 'The Weighbridge'. Approximately 0.5 miles from the property lies the centre of Alvechurch village which offers two Nurseries, First School (Crown Meadow), Middle School (Alvechurch Church of England School) and several shopping and eating facilities. Also, further afield are the facilities offered by both Redditch and Barnt Green Village.

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.
