Wakeley Hill, Penn, Wolverhampton WV4

SLADE Property Collective presents
64 Wakeley Hill, Penn
Offers in the Region of £310,000 (EPC:tbc)

A charming pre-1900s semi-detached property, occupying an elevated position on Wakeley Hill in Penn, set behind an established hedgerow and approached via a substantial stone driveway.

64 Wakeley Hill is a home full of character, offering generous and versatile accommodation arranged over three floors, with a lovely combination of period features, spacious reception rooms and a substantial established rear garden.

The property has plenty to admire immediately, from the original stained-glass windows and feature fireplace within the main reception room, through to the excellent proportions and versatility offered across the three floors.

There is also excellent potential to extend, subject to the necessary planning permission and consents. The property benefits from a particularly wide side access with a gated opening directly from the driveway, creating an exciting opportunity to consider a side-return extension. This could provide scope to enlarge the existing kitchen and create a more substantial kitchen, dining and family space, whilst retaining the existing accommodation.

Outside, the rear garden is another real highlight, with a raised patio, extensive lawn, mature planting and a substantial timber-framed workshop/store towards the far end.

In short, this is a characterful Penn home with excellent existing accommodation, generous outside space, useful parking and plenty of potential to grow with the property.

Ground Floor
Entrance Hall
Approached via steps from the driveway, the property is entered through a characterful glass-paned door into the welcoming hallway.

Quality hard flooring runs underfoot, with the hallway providing access to the principal reception accommodation and staircase rising to the upper floors.

Living Dining Room
The main reception room is a particularly impressive space, running through the centre of the property and providing a wonderful combination of living and dining areas.

At the front of the room is a charming walk-in bay window with original stained-glass windows, providing a lovely focal point and bringing plenty of natural light into the room. There is also a flush-fit fuel-effect gas fire.

The room continues through into a generous dining area, providing ample space for a large dining table and making this a particularly sociable part of the home.

There is useful storage beneath the staircase, including a recessed area, whilst the overall proportions make this a very versatile room for both everyday family life and entertaining.

Kitchen
The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and drawer units, with work surfaces incorporating a four-ring gas hob, Bosch oven and grill.

There is a composite sink with mixer tap and useful storage and preparation space.

A Worcester Bosch combination boiler provides heating and hot water to the property.

Importantly, the kitchen also sits alongside the property's wide side access, providing the opportunity to consider a future side-return extension, subject to planning permission and the relevant consents.

Conservatory / Utility
To the side of the kitchen is a useful side-return conservatory, currently utilised as a utility area.

There are worktops and useful practical space, together with direct side access.

A gated opening from the driveway provides access down the side of the property and through to the rear garden, with the generous width of this access adding further potential for the property in the future.

Rear Sitting Room
At the rear of the property is a further sitting room overlooking the garden.

This is a useful additional reception space, with a good amount of storage cupboard space and direct access to the garden through patio doors.

It would work equally well as a family room, snug, home office or informal dining space, depending upon requirements.

First Floor
The staircase rises to a spacious and naturally bright first-floor landing, with a wooden balustrade adding further character.

Bedroom One
The principal bedroom sits at the front of the property and is a generous double bedroom.

The room benefits from fitted wardrobes, radiator heating and a lovely feature fireplace, whilst the proportions and period character make this a particularly appealing principal bedroom.

Family Bathroom
A generous family bathroom fitted with a roll-top bath, separate shower with mixer fitting, WC and pedestal wash basin.

There is quality hard flooring underfoot, a traditional column radiator and spotlight downlighting.

Bedroom Three
Positioned at the rear of the property, Bedroom Three overlooks the established rear garden.

A versatile room which would work particularly well as a child's bedroom, guest room or home office, whilst still offering the flexibility to accommodate a double bed if required.

Second Floor
Bedroom Two
The second floor provides an excellent additional double bedroom.

This is a particularly well-proportioned room, finished to a good standard and benefiting from a useful recessed wardrobe and double-glazed window overlooking the rear garden.

The position on the top floor provides an excellent degree of separation from the principal bedrooms and makes this a versatile space for older children, guests or those working from home.

Outside
The property is approached via a substantial stone driveway, positioned behind an established hedgerow and providing excellent off-road parking.

To the side is a wide gated opening accessed directly from the driveway, providing convenient front-to-rear access.

The width of this side access is particularly noteworthy, as it also creates excellent potential for future extension, subject to planning permission and any other necessary consents. There is scope to consider a side-return kitchen extension, potentially creating a much larger kitchen, dining and family area and allowing the property to evolve further over time.

Rear Garden
The rear garden is one of the property's standout features.

Immediately beyond the house is a raised patio area, providing an ideal space for outdoor seating, entertaining and enjoying the garden during the warmer months.

From here, the garden extends into a substantial lawn, surrounded by mature and established borders and planting. It runs a considerable distance to the rear boundary, creating an excellent feeling of space and privacy.

There is plenty of room here for families, children, gardening enthusiasts or simply those looking for a genuinely generous garden.

Towards the far end is a large timber-framed workshop/store, tucked away within the garden and providing a very useful additional space. With worktop areas already in place, it would be ideal for hobbies, diy, gardening equipment, tools, storage or anyone looking for a dedicated workshop away from the main house.

Penn is an established and highly regarded residential area to the south-west of Wolverhampton, offering a particularly appealing balance of local amenities, excellent green space, good schooling and convenient access into Wolverhampton and the wider West Midlands.

Wakeley Hill is well positioned for the everyday amenities found around Penn and Warstones, with local shops, convenience stores, cafés, takeaways and other useful services all within easy reach.

For a broader choice of shopping, restaurants, leisure and entertainment, Wolverhampton city centre is readily accessible, whilst the surrounding South Staffordshire countryside is also close at hand.

Schools
The area is well served by a selection of primary and secondary schools, making Penn a popular choice for families. Highfields School is one of the area's established secondary schools, with a number of primary school options available locally and across the wider Penn area.

School catchments and admissions criteria can change, so prospective purchasers should make their own enquiries with the relevant authorities.

Green Spaces
One of the great advantages of living in this part of Wolverhampton is the amount of accessible green space nearby.

Penn Common provides open countryside and attractive walking routes, offering a welcome escape from the more built-up areas.

Bantock Park is also within easy reach, providing extensive parkland, mature trees, gardens, walking routes, play facilities and Bantock House and Museum.

Further afield, Smestow Valley Local Nature Reserve provides a fantastic green corridor through the western side of Wolverhampton, with walking and cycling routes, woodland, meadows and opportunities to enjoy the surrounding wildlife.

The wider South Staffordshire countryside is also easily accessible, providing plenty of opportunities for longer walks and days out.

Transport Links
Penn is well positioned for access into Wolverhampton and the wider West Midlands.

The A449 Penn Road provides a direct route towards Wolverhampton city centre, whilst the surrounding road network gives access towards the M54, M6 and wider motorway network.

Wolverhampton railway station provides regular rail services to Birmingham, Stafford and other destinations, whilst local bus services provide connections across Wolverhampton and surrounding areas.

For commuters, the combination of road, rail and public transport connections makes Penn a particularly practical location.

Penn offers that increasingly sought-after combination of being close to the city without feeling completely urban.

There are local shops and amenities close by, excellent access to green spaces, a choice of schooling and straightforward connections into Wolverhampton and beyond. At the same time, the nearby countryside provides plenty of opportunity to get out and enjoy the surrounding area.

For 64 Wakeley Hill, that location is complemented by a property which itself offers something quite special, period character, generous accommodation, a substantial garden, excellent parking and genuine potential to create even more space in the future.
