Immaculately Presented Three Bedroom Semi-Detached Home with Outstanding Garden, Oakfield Avenue, Birstall
Beautifully maintained three-bedroom semi-detached home situated on the highly regarded Oakfield Avenue.
Occupying a generous plot with an exceptional rear garden, this immaculate property offers spacious and versatile accommodation throughout, making it an ideal purchase for families, professionals and those seeking a home ready to move straight into. Constructed in 1954, the property combines the generous proportions associated with homes of its era with the high standard of presentation expected by today's buyers.
The property is approached via a substantial stone-pebbled driveway providing ample off-road parking whilst also offering an excellent degree of privacy. An entrance porch leads through into a welcoming hallway featuring hard flooring, staircase rising to the first floor and access to the principal ground floor accommodation.
To the front of the property is a beautifully presented lounge, a generous reception room featuring a large bay window allowing natural light to flood the space, alongside a feature fireplace which creates an attractive focal point. The room is presented in immaculate condition throughout and benefits from internal glazed double doors leading into the second reception room.
The second reception room is an incredibly versatile space, currently utilised as an additional sitting and entertaining area whilst also lending itself perfectly to formal dining. The ability to open the connecting doors creates a wonderful flow between the rooms, making this an exceptional home for entertaining guests, hosting family gatherings or simply enjoying flexible day-to-day living.
The kitchen offers an extensive range of wall and base units providing excellent storage and preparation space, alongside ample room for a dining table and chairs. Features include a five-burner gas hob, double oven, integrated fridge, integrated freezer and space for additional appliances.
A rear hallway provides useful storage and access to a downstairs WC fitted with wash hand basin and double-glazed window.
The rear garden is undoubtedly one of the standout features of this wonderful home. Beautifully maintained and exceptionally private, the garden enjoys a large patio seating area, expansive lawn, mature trees, established planting and an impressive variety of shrubs, creating a truly stunning outdoor environment. Three substantial storage sheds provide excellent practicality, whilst the overall size and presentation of the garden make it one of the finest currently available within the area.
Further enhancing the property's appeal is a lean-to garage with up-and-over doors to both the front and rear, allowing vehicle access straight through to the garden if required. This versatile space is ideal for secure vehicle storage, workshop use or additional household storage and benefits from power sockets and convenient access from the kitchen.
To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family shower room. The contemporary shower room features an impressive oversized shower enclosure with stylish tiling, wash hand basin, WC, chrome heated towel rail and double-glazed rear window.
Bedroom One enjoys views over the front driveway and benefits from mirrored sliding wardrobes providing excellent fitted storage. Bedroom Two overlooks the stunning rear garden and offers further built-in storage, creating a spacious and relaxing principal guest or family bedroom. Bedroom Three is a generously sized single room featuring fitted bed space and room for wardrobes and a dressing area, making it ideal as a child's bedroom, nursery or home office.
Practical features continue throughout the home, including a regularly serviced hard-wired security alarm system, providing additional peace of mind for future owners. The loft is accessed via a convenient pull-down ladder and is partially boarded, offering useful storage space with scope for further enhancement if desired.
Perhaps most excitingly, the property offers excellent future potential. The current owners previously secured planning permission to reconfigure the home into a substantial five-bedroom, two-bathroom family residence. Whilst the permission has now lapsed, the approved plans and supporting documentation have been retained and could be resubmitted, presenting an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to create a significantly larger home, subject to the necessary consents.
This outstanding home combines immaculate presentation, spacious accommodation, future potential and one of the finest gardens available in Birstall today, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a truly special property in a highly desirable location.
