A discreetly positioned “hidden” Wightwick residence providing extensive accommodation which has recently been refurbished throughout,
all standing in a large plot of just under an acre in total in one of the regions most sought after addresses.
Elmsdale is a lovely cul-de-sac of individual properties set around a small copse. It stands in a prestigious and sought after area to the west of the City Centre. The cul-de-sac runs off Wightwick Bank within easy reach of the excellent facilities available locally within both Tettenhall and Compton with easy access to the extensive amenities of the City Centre itself. The area is well served by schooling in both sectors.
Orchard House is a fine, family home providing substantial accommodation over both ground and first floors with an extensive array of living space coupled with four large bedroom suites to the first floor.
The current sellers bought the property in 2021 and, since that time, there has been a comprehensive scheme of remodelling and refurbishment throughout. New kitchen and bathroom suites have been fitted, triple glazed windows have been installed throughout (with one exception being the laminated double glazed doors in the cinema room), the central heating system was replaced virtually throughout (with only some original pipework remaining) and the electrical system was upgraded where required.
One of the principal attractions of Orchard House is the superb plot within which is stands with extensive, matured and private grounds of almost an acre in total which is approached over a gated driveway at the head of the cul-de-sac.
