Here we have an opportunity to live the archetypal ‘English country cottage with roses round the door’ dream. Ok, so there is in fact no rose there at the moment, but one doesn’t need much in the way of imagination to picture it there…
Built in the late Victorian era, and originally the Milk Cottage from where the neighbouring farm (onto which the property still backs) used to sell milk to passers by on the lane, this gorgeous property exudes character and a welcoming ambience and is complemented by the prettiest of country gardens complete with babbling stream, lily pond and orchard. Situated in a rural location on the outskirts of West Wolverhampton , the property has the benefit of a quiet rural environment , within a close knit residential area whilst being easily accessible for the motorway network and the city.
It has great kerb appeal with cream painted rendered elevation having central gable tile and slate roofs with attractive carved fascias, replacement leaded casement uPVC windows, and a pretty oriel window . Unusual for a cottage of this age, the property has the advantage of being light and airy with the sun streaming through the windows and the wonderful conservatory which overlooks the southerly facing back garden. There is no doubt that the garden is a real selling point and the present owner who has seen various children splashing around in the little stream, making boats of bark and the like has made the most of the garden, which can be appreciated, from the inside, all though the year. The lounge and conservatory combine to create a superb entertaining space; with the large terrace outside and the fabulous covered seating area off the sitting room ( a pergola laden with clematis and overlooking the pond), and the beautiful garden setting makes this a superb party house. The detached garage is an attractive building in its own right with its pitched roof and sheltered by fir trees. Planning permission has been previously granted for conversion of the garage to include a room above (there is plenty of room for an external staircase) and also for extension to both sides of the main house. This has recently lapsed but could certainly be reinstated subject to application. The outlook from the front of the house is also excellent, which, in a slightly elevated position, has lovely views over pastureland.
