Ten Ashes Lane, Cofton Hackett

Summary
Set back within a private cul-de-sac of just three other homes, this spacious family residence offers a large frontage rarely found in this particular location. The property has been extended in the past, creating generous living space while still offering exciting scope for further enhancement and personalisation to suit individual tastes. Enjoying a picturesque setting between the Lickey Hills and Cofton Park, the property is ideally positioned for the highly regarded village of Barnt Green, the regenerated Longbridge retail park, and access to the Midlands motorway network.
Description
The accommodation is approached via an entrance porch leading into a generous dual aspect living/dining room, featuring a living flame gas fire. The kitchen overlooks the rear garden and adjoins a practical utility room, which benefits from an understairs pantry cupboard, deep worktop with provision for an under-counter washing machine - the worktop doubling up as a breakfast bar with a window enjoying views over the garden. An external door from the utility room provides useful side access. Also accessed from the utility room is a further sitting room, complete with an electric fire, offering a flexible family space.
Stairs accessed behind a door from the living room rise to the first floor, which comprises two generous double bedrooms, a well proportioned single bedroom, and a family bathroom fitted with both a bath and separate shower.
Outside
Externally, the rear garden features a patio seating area leading up to a shaped lawn with planted borders, a garden shed positioned to the rear, and fenced boundaries, with side access available along the property. The property enjoys an unusually large frontage, including a block-paved driveway providing parking for multiple vehicles, access to a garage with electric door, alongside an expansive lawned area bordered by a hedge separating the property from Ten Ashes Lane. A stream emerging from a culvert runs along the left-hand boundary of the property, situated within the boundary of the neighbouring property and enclosed by fencing.
Location
Cofton Hackett is an ancient settlement mentioned in historical documents dating back to 780 AD and in the present day provides a wide range of local amenities including an 18 hole golf course, two churches, village hall, easy access to local schools, popular public house 'The Oak Tree' and Sunday lunch at 'The Old Rose and Crown' hotel. Ten Ashes Lane itself is perfectly located for many fine walks within both the renowned 524 Acre Lickey Woods and 135 Acre Cofton Park once visited by Pope Benedict XVI. The bordering village, Barnt Green, is located approximately 1.3 miles away and offers everyday shopping facilities, doctor's surgery, several dentists, St Andrews primary school, the ever-popular Grade II listed 'Barnt Green Inn' and railway station (direct to Birmingham New Street). There are also many sporting facilities including a renowned sports club (one of the leading racquet clubs in the country), cricket club, sailing and many other clubs and societies. No more than 2 miles away is the recently regenerated Longbridge site (former MG Rover car plant), home to the largest Marks and Spencers in the Midlands. Access to the M42 is just 3.8 miles away and the M5 around the same distance.
