House For Sale £845,000
A spacious and much improved family home, set well back in a secure elevated position, whilst located in a popular and convenient residential area of Edgbaston on the prestigious Calthorpe Estate.
Situation
Ideally located for access to Five Ways railway station on Birmingham Middleway (affording access to Birmingham New Street), the property is also conveniently situated for access to Birmingham City Centre which lies only approximately 2 miles to the north. St James Road is also well placed for the local shops within the nearby Templefield Square, as well as being within easy walking distance of West House Preparatory School.
Description
30 St James Road is a beautifully appointed semi- detached family home, which in recent years has been tastefully refurbished and modernised by the current owners. The property offers attractive brick faced elevations with relief offered by a double storey projecting bay to the front façade and is approached onto a secure front drive through electronically operated entrance gates.
The well laid out and well-presented accommodation is set over two levels, with planning permission currently in situ for an extension to the ground floor, whilst there is also excellent potential (subject to any necessary planning consents), for creating additional living space within the loft. Extending to some 1,712 sq. Ft. (159 sq.m.), the well-proportioned accommodation is ideally suited for family living and entertaining purposes, and briefly comprises:
An entrance vestibule, with large obscure glazed window continues through into the central reception hall, with access off to the two principal reception rooms, and the fitted kitchen/dining room. The front living room has a south facing bay window to the front aspect, and connecting glazed doors opening out into the rear sitting room, to create one large reception area when required, ideal for entertaining.
The rear sitting room provides another wonderful reception room, with double glazed French doors leading out onto the rear terrace and gardens, and with the central feature of a modern contemporary style fireplace. The superb kitchen/dining room has a tiled floor, and is fitted with a range of modern base and wall mounted units, ample work surface areas and single drainer single bowl sink unit with mixer tap, a range of appliances to include a gas hob with an extractor fan over, and a double oven/grill beneath, separate microwave oven, and an integrated dishwasher.
A useful separate utility room has space for an upright fridge freezer, base and wall cupboards, work top with sink unit, as well as space and plumbing for a washer/dryer, whilst also giving access off to the downstairs shower/cloaks room.
From the reception hall a staircase, leads up to the first floor landing and principal bedroom accommodation.
There are 4 excellent bedrooms on this floor, with an en suite shower room to bedroom 3, in addition to a fine family bathroom with a modern suite of roll top claw foot bath, walk in glazed shower cubicle, WC and wash hand basin in a wooden vanity unit.
Outside
The secure front driveway is entered through electronically operated entrance gates and provides off road parking area for several cars.
There is an extensive seating terrace directly to the back of the house, providing a wonderfully private seating area, and which can also be accessed via the French doors of the main sitting room and kitchen/dining room, from the house. Wide steps, flanked by rockeries, continue from the terrace up onto the main lawn, with well planted borders and a central pathway which continues down to the far end of the garden where is located the timber garden shed/store.
