Important Information Regarding Probate
At present the property is going through the process of probate which the family is not yet in receipt of, and we are not yet aware of an estimated date of return. We therefore advise that any mortgage buyers refrain from applying for their mortgage until the probate received / close to being received.
Introduction & Exterior
Available with no upward chain, this fabulous period home in Wilnecote will prove extremely popular to First Time Buyers and those seeking a two-bedroom property with generous bedrooms, lots of reception space and large private garden.
The property holds an elevated position, set back from Hockley Road behind a delightful front garden with a picket fence boundary. A block paved path leads to the wood-effect PVC front door and down the side of the property to a secure gate that opens to the rear garden. We believe that the neighbouring property to the left has a right of way via a blue gate to the rear of the house to be able to remove their garden waste.
The rear garden begins with a yard area that has a continuation of the block paving laid alongside the kitchen and the utility room. The garden continues beyond the yard to a gravel patch with attractive shrubbery placed around ending at a large garden shed. Behind the shed is a wide area of decking before a long area of mature shrubbery and lawn continues until the end of the garden offering potential for keen gardeners to have an impressive space for entertaining or relaxing. Tall wooden fencing is erected to the boundaries.
Ground Floor
Viewers enter the home into a fabulous lounge that sets the tone for the fabulously presented home. The tasteful décor includes a feature wall of designer wallpaper, wood-effect flooring and bespoke fitted blinds. All chimney breasts throughout the home are blocked off with the lounge having the first example of this.
A door to the rear of the lounge opens to the second reception room, the dining room, which is a similar size to the lounge but has an extra recess created underneath the staircase. In here there is plenty of space for a six-seater family dining table whilst leaving space for sideboards. A window to the rear of the room has a view of the rear yard and a door beside this accesses the kitchen.
The galley kitchen features a modern suite fitted to each side wall with a lovely retro glass fronted cabinet mounted high to the left wall. To the right side of the room, a one-and-a-half-bowl sink with drainer is positioned within the units. A clear space is available for a gas cooker. At the rear of the kitchen is an opening to the utility room, where there is space for a fridge freezer and under counter space for a washing machine and dishwasher or tumble dryer. An exit door to the rear yard is found at the front-right of the kitchen.
First Floor
The staircase to the first floor is found at the front of the dining room and rises to a corridor landing from which there are doors leading off to both double bedrooms and the family bathroom.
The largest of the two bedrooms is found at the front of the house, following the same footprint as the lounge by spanning the full width of the building. A row of fitted wardrobes have been installed to the full length of the right hand wall, secluding the chimney breast in the process and leaving a vast open space for the remaining bedroom furniture. Bedroom two is another generous bedroom that includes a built-in storage cupboard that makes excellent use of the void above the staircase.
The bathroom is the same size as the kitchen below, which is fairly sizeable for a bathroom! The suite includes a long bathtub with shower fitted over, a pedestal wash basin, toilet and a storage cupboard housing the central heating combi-boiler. The walls have attractive wipe-clean cladding applied.

Transport links
Hockley Road is located at the south-east of Tamworth. From here there is quick access to the M42 Junction 10 via the Trinity Road, thus avoid the morning hustle and bustle of Wilnecote’s Watling Street. Junction 10 also connects with the A5, and therefore commuters have excellent access to Birmingham, Nottingham, Lichfield, Nuneaton, Hinckley and Atherstone. Furthermore, Burton & Derby are found by utilising the A38 at Lichfield or travelling north on the M42.
The nearest train station is Wilnecote offering a service to Birmingham New Street & Tamworth as part of the Cross Country line which also leads to Nottingham & Derby. Tamworth Railway station offers both the Cross Country Line and the West Coast Main Line, offering a regular service to London Euston as well as trains to Liverpool, Manchester and even Glasgow.
Non-drivers will be especially delighted that there is a regular bus service to Tamworth Town Centre from Hockley Road. The bus station in Tamworth offers links to many places around Staffordshire and Birmingham.
Schools & amenities
According to the Staffordshire Schools website, the catchment secondary school for this home is Wilnecote High School which is a 0.2 mile walk away. The site also lists two catchment primary schools: Heathlands Infant School (0.2 miles) and Wilnecote Junior School (0.3 miles). Although we have researched this information, parents are advised to confirm catchment via the local authority. (Websites used & Staffs County Council)
A short walk from this home is found a Fish & Chip shop and Chinese takeaway, with a convenience store close-by on Hockley Road. A short journey by car to the west of Hockley will bring the new owners to Ninian Way where there is a recently developed retail park including a Starbucks and a ‘The Range’ home store. A Morrisons Supermarket found a short distance further in Belgrave.
Tamworth town centre offers a range of famous and independent stores with Ventura & Jolly Sailor Retail Parks offering much more in the form of large outlets, supermarkets, and restaurants.
Tamworth is also steeped in history, with Tamworth Castle located in the town centre and Castle Gardens. There are plenty of places to walk and exercise, including Kingsbury Water Park which is around a 10 minute drive away.
