The area benefits from excellent communications with good road and rail links. The A5 and A41 corridors are nearby and the motorway network is easily accessible via the M54 which facilitates fast access to Birmingham, Telford and the entire industrial West Midlands.
Everyday shopping facilities are available within the nearby village of Albrighton together with further amenities provided by the historic market town of Newport, Telford and Wolverhampton City Centre. Furthermore the area is well served by schooling in both sectors.
DESCRIPTION
Brookside Cottage is in need of a full refurbishment. The current owners have had planning permission granted which would create a beautiful property with a good size lounge, open plan dining kitchen with bifold doors overlooking local paddocks, a utility / boot room with guest cloakroom off. The first floor would provide a principal bedroom suite with en-suite bathroom, dressing area and balcony overlooking paddocks to the rear, two further bedrooms and a shower room.
The planning includes a detached garage with a room over which could be used for a variety of purposes and still retains a driveway and a good size garden.
ACCOMMODATION
The property is accessed through the CONSERVATORY with paddle fan light, double doors open into a laundry with WC and patio doors to the rear garden. A door from the conservatory opens into the KITCHEN with a range of wall and base units with electric cooking appliances, sink and drainer and window overlooking the rear garden. A glazed door opens into the LOUNGE with lattice bay window to the front, wooden beam, wiring for wall light and a York Stone fireplace with cast iron, Woodmann fuel burning stove and a door opens into the DINING ROOM with double glazed lattice bay window to the front, wiring for wall lights and beamed ceiling.
An open tread staircase from the dining room rises to the first floor landing. BEDROOM ONE is a good size double with double glazed windows to two elevations. BEDROOM TWO has a double glazed lattice window to the front and the SHOWER ROOM has a shower cubicle, wash basin with cupboards beneath, WC and a linen cupboard housing the hot water cylinder with slatted shelving above.
OUTSIDE
Brookside Cottage sits behind a low rise boundary wall with wooden gates opening onto a gravelled courtyard with a DRIVEWAY to one side laid in brick paviours affording off road parking for several vehicles.
The REAR GARDEN is mostly laid to lawn with open views over adjoining countryside with a babbling brook to one side and a garden pond.
