THE PROPERTY
Introduction & Approach
This fabulous family home in Wednesbury will impress viewers due its superb interior presentation and potential for extensions and development due to the size of the generous plot. Depicted in the second photo, the red line shows the size of the plot available with green line showing the existing garden boundary. The property begins with a sloped driveway off Park Lane right by the junction with Woden Road North.
The driveway continues beyond the house via double gates to the side, providing plenty of off-road parking. There is also a front lawn to enhance the kerb appeal and viewers will take steps to the front door, which is sheltered by a recessed storm porch.
Ground Floor
Once inside, viewers are confronted by a lovely hallway with high-quality, wood-effect laminate flooring and a carpeted staircase. Also of note are the smart internal doors including one with a glass panel leading into the kitchen. The remaining doors lead into the two large reception rooms with a further door opening into the hallway to access the cleverly designed under-stairs guest WC. Concealed under the stairs is also a space for a washing machine with plumbing and a quirky drawer, perfect for shoes, that slide out from under the staircase.
Both reception rooms feature a continuation of the wood-effect flooring, with the lounge at the front having a large bay window and the dining room at the rear having a large, double-glazed door with a window on either side. Both reception rooms have a blocked chimney breast that adds to the character of the rooms.
The kitchen is a very stylish suite that features hi-gloss white facias and wooden work surfaces. To the right is the exit door to the side of the property where there has been a hatch-style continuation of the work-surface to maximise the available space. The suite includes an electric oven, four-burner gas hob and an overhead extractor fan.
First Floor
Moving upstairs, the landing area of this home features doors leading off to all three bedrooms and the family bathroom. All bedrooms are carpeted with the two double bedrooms at the left of the house following a similar plan to the reception rooms below; the front master bedroom having a matching bay window. The third bedroom is a single bedroom that would also work well as an office.
The bathroom suite, like the kitchen below, incredibly stylish. It features a bathtub with shower and screen fitted above. To the right is a cabinet unit with a large modern rectangular sink mounted on top with a toilet beside and a wooden surface to finish. A chrome heated towel rail is mounted on the opposite wall and with sleek tiling to the majority of the wall space. Above the first floor is an excellent sized loft offering conversion potential.
Outside
As well as the aforementioned land to the side, the plot includes a huge rear garden that begins from the house with a deep slabbed patio and concrete base where there was originally a garage. The remainder of the garden is turf, offering a huge blank canvas for the new owners.

This property is offered for sale via the Reservation Fee Service which is a flexible and buyer friendly method of purchase. The purchaser will be given 90 working days in which to complete the transaction from the date the Draft Contract is issued by the sellers solicitor.
By giving a buyer time to exchange contracts on the property, normal residential finance can be arranged. The Buyer’s Premium secures the transaction and takes the property off the market. Fees paid to the Merchant are paid in addition to the purchase price and are considered within calculations for Stamp Duty Land Tax. Further clarification on this must be sought from your legal representative.
The buyer will be required to give the Merchant authority to sign the Reservation Form on their behalf and to confirm acceptance of the Terms and Conditions prior to solicitors being instructed. Copies of the Reservation Form and all Terms and Conditions can be found in the Information Pack which can be downloaded from our website or requested from our Merchant.
If the vendor accepts an offer, the buyer will be required to make payment of a non-refundable Buyer’s Premium of £5,582 including VAT, plus a legal pack charge of £372 including VAT, a total of £5,954. This secures the transaction and takes the property off the market. Any additional fees and charges over and above this will be confirmed within the terms and conditions available on the website.
The Buyer's Premium and legal pack charge are in addition to the final negotiated selling price.
All buyers will be required to verify their identity and provide proof of how the purchase will be funded.
An EPC is broadly like the labels provided with domestic appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines. Its purpose is to record how energy efficient a property is as a building. The certificate will provide a rating of the energy efficiency and carbon emissions of a building from A to G, where A is very efficient, and G is inefficient. The data required to allow the calculation of an EPC includes the age and construction of the building, its insulation and heating method. EPCs are produced using standard methods with standard assumptions about energy usage so that the energy efficiency of one building can easily be compared with another building of the same type. The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) requires that all buildings have an EPC when they are marketed for sale or for let, or when houses are newly built. EPCs are valid for 10 years, or until a newer EPC is prepared. During this period the EPC may be made available to buyers or new tenants.
By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
