INTRODUCTION 78 Holland Road is a great home for the young family or modern professional, set right in the thick of the action, within the town centre of Sutton Coldfield.

The house has the benefit of a ground floor bathroom AND a 1st floor shower room, ideal for when you & the kids or partner are all trying to get ready at the same time! The house benefits from double glazing (excluding kitchen external door), gas central heating & is freehold in it`s tenure.
GROUND FLOOR The property is entered via a vestibule, which in turn leads into the hall. The hall, which has a laminate wood effect floor, has a unique feature for this style of house, as the stairs have been reversed & now lead off the kitchen, meaning there is a useful storage cupboard in the hall.

The dining room has a character fireplace, laminate wood effect floor & patio door to the garden.

A laundry leads off the kitchen & has the combi Worcester gas central heating boiler, plumbing for a washing machine, further built in units with clever pull out pantry storage & integral fridge & freezer. At the rear is the bathroom, which has a white suite of WC, wash basin, bath with shower unit over & Karndean flooring.
FIRST FLOOR A landing area leads to the bedrooms & shower room. A hatch leads to the loft area with a pull down ladder. Bedroom 1, at the front, is a lovely room of impressive size. Bedroom 2, at the rear, has a window overlooking the garden, while bedroom 3, also at the rear, is a surprising size for a 3rd bedroom & has a laminate wood effect floor. The 1st floor also has the benefit of a modern shower room, which has a white suite of WC, wash basin & double width walk in shower cubicle.
