3 Bed Bungalow, Ferrers Road, B77

Location

Wonderfully situated in a quite street and tranquil surroundings, set back off the road with landscaped gardens. Ideally located very close to local amenities such as the post office, news agents, general store and other services including a main bus route. The property is approximately 15 minutes walk from the town and railway station so is ideal for commuters to major cities like Birmingham or London. The local canal is just around the corner, perfect for walks, cycling and fishing. 10 minutes on a bike in most directions from the town you are in the country exploring the surrounding villages. Being in the centre of England there is very good access to all major route for any direction of the UK.

The Property 

This property is ideal for a working couple or small family perfect if you have busy lives in the city you can return home to a very tranquil property which has beautiful gardens, the mowing of lawns, maintenance of hedges, shrubbery and trees are included in the rental agreement, the work will be undertaken by the landlord, freeing the tenants up to enjoy the property and surrounding areas. 

The bungalow has recently been rewired bringing it up to current regulations and modern living including main/lithium smoke detectors for added safety, re-plastered and decorated throughout, new large kitchen dining room, all of the gorgeous solid oak parquet floors have been renovated and re-finished, plus a lot of other essential work undertaken. 
The property has cavity wall insulation and the loft insulation is going to be topped up to the required level in the coming months. The EPC report was carried out when I purchased the property before the renovation and they didn`t consider the cavity wall insulation so a new report will be obtained when the loft has been topped up, all I can say is that the property is warm and retains the heat in the winter, a lot more so than my own house which has a better rating EPC !
