Summary - 13 COTTAGE LANE, CHASETOWN, BURNTWOOD WS7 4XZ
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Characterful three-bed home with garage and scope to modernise.
3 bedrooms including first-floor room with eaves storage
Generous, private rear garden — not overlooked, paved patio and shed
Block-paved driveway and detached garage for off-street parking
Character features: exposed beams, feature fireplace with log burner
Small overall internal size (~776 sq ft); practical but compact layout
Single bathroom only; may need more facilities for larger families
Solid brick walls assumed uninsulated; insulation and heating upgrades advisable
Area has above-average crime and local deprivation indicators
This cottage-style, three-bedroom home sits on a deceptively generous plot with a private, not-overlooked rear garden — a rare find for the area. Two ground-floor bedrooms and a further first-floor room give flexible accommodation for a small family, home office or guest space. The lounge with exposed beams and a log burner gives character and a cosy focal point.
Practical benefits include a block-paved driveway, detached garage and mains gas boiler with radiators, plus double glazing fitted since 2002. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making remote working straightforward. The property is freehold and has relatively low council tax.
Buyers should note the home is modest in overall size (about 776 sq ft) and has a single bathroom. The solid brick walls as built are assumed to have no cavity insulation, and the heating mix includes warm air and electric heaters, so improvement works to modernise heating and insulation would add comfort and value. The area shows above-average crime and local deprivation indicators, which may affect resale and should be considered alongside the property’s positives.
This is a practical, characterful house for a family or buyer seeking a period cottage with a large, private garden and parking. It offers clear potential: modest cosmetic updating, improved insulation and heating upgrades would make it a comfortable long-term home and improve value in a market where private outdoor space is prized.
