Description

Nestled near the picturesque Lickey Hills Country Park and within reach of a highly-regarded primary school, this bungalow presents a noteworthy investment opportunity. Surrounded by mature hedging, it offers privacy while ensuring easy access to the Midlands motorway network for convenient commuting. Although in need of refurbishment, the property holds significant potential for extension or redevelopment (subject to planning permissions), allowing future owners to craft a personalized residence in an attractive locale. Inside, you'll find an entrance hall leading to a spacious living room complete with a charming stone fireplace fitted with an electric fire. The layout includes a separate office area and a kitchen/diner that connects to a conservatory-style storage room, providing direct access to the garden. Accommodation consists of a double bedroom and a single bedroom along with a bathroom, all of which can be modernized according to individual preferences. The private rear garden is another highlight, featuring ample lawn space, a patio perfect for outdoor dining, and established shrubs that enhance its secluded feel. The size of the garden opens up opportunities for landscaping and transforming it into an exceptional outdoor retreat. Located between Lickey and Marlbrook, this property is conveniently close to various amenities as well as scenic walks in the surrounding countryside. Barnt Green village is just 1.6 miles away, offering shops, health services, schools, and excellent transport links directly into Birmingham New Street. The nearby market town of Bromsgrove also provides additional recreational facilities including fitness centers and diverse dining options. With proximity to major motorways (M5 and M42), commuting is made easy for those working within the West Midlands conurbation.
