A Deceptively Spacious 3 Storey Traditional Stone Cottage With Great Potential

A traditional 3 storey stone cottage, situated in heart of the poplar village of Gee Cross. Has access to the local shops, amenities, road, motorway and rail networks, and a very popular nursery in sight. Golf Club, Cricket and Squash Club, and Werneth Low country park less than a mile away.

Ready for someone to personalise and make their own stamp on the property. This character cottage would benefit from a little TLC, and is therefore priced accordingly, and despite interest the property, has been reduced to reflect the change in the current market. It benefits from a larger than expected interior spread over the 3 levels, with 2 reception rooms, 2 bedrooms (the second currently used as a dressing room), a family bathroom, Kitchen, and large dining room.

Externally the property boasts a block paved drive to the front of the property, with a raised conservatory base immediately to the rear of the property with steps leading to an easily maintained stone patio, leading down to a large decked area overlooking a stream with wooded area behind.

A second master bedroom could easily and economically be incorporated to form a 3 bed property at the sacrifice of the large open dining area.   

IN DETAIL THE LIVING ACCOMMODATION COMPRISES OF THE FOLLOWING:

FRONT - The property is off set from the road by a low maintenance block paved drive frontage. Potential for future vehicle charging point.

LOUNGE RECEPTION 1 FAMILY ROOM – 4 x 4m

Double glazed window and wooden door to the front, fireplace with cast Iron and tiled surround inset with a coal effect living flame gas fire. Wooden flooring, turning stairs leading to the first floor, ceiling coving, TV aerial point, telephone point, dado rail.

Double glazed UPVC window to the rear, stairs leading down to the basement kitchen dining area.

BASEMENT KITCHEN – 4 x 3m

Built in oven with a four ring gas hob, part tiled walls, plumbing for an automatic washing machine, double glazed UPVC window to the rear elevation. Wooden stable door to the rear, under stairs storage, wooden laminate flooring.

DINING AREA – 4 x 4m

Double glazed window to the front elevation, tiled floor, double central heated radiator, and built in cupboards.

OUTSIDE REAR – New UPVC windows to all 3 levels. Stable door leads onto a raised base ready for a conservatory, leading to low maintenance rear paved patio. Steps leading down to a timber deck facing stream and wooded areas behind. Deck ‘structure’ sound, but requires replacement decking. The shed will be removed ready for the same at the point of sale.

Generally, the property is ready for re-decoration and a little TLC, hence the offered price. But as a further investment it may be worth considering the following:

·         Rear living area window could easily be changed to incorporate a set of French doors and Juliet balcony to overlook the stream and wooded area.

·         At the sacrifice of the dining room it would be very easy to form a second master bedroom, at little cost, making it a 3 bedroom property, but this would perhaps change its current quirky and individual character.

·         The second floor the bathroom could easily be converted to a shower room given the location of services, allowing the second child’s room dressing room to form an additional adults bedroom without access through the bathroom.

·         The open purlin roof construction would potentially allow conversion to form either a large area for storage, or a Dormer level.
