About this listing

Some homes simply feel easy from the moment you step inside. Beautifully cared for, filled with natural light and opening onto a wonderfully sunny south-facing garden, Tanners Garth is one of them. There is a great deal to appreciate here. Behind its smart, gated frontage is a home that has been thoughtfully and extensively improved by its current owner, yet still retains a warmth and personality that makes it feel immediately welcoming. refitted composite front door and windows, refitted digital Worcester gas boiler, additional loft insulation and a carefully upgraded kitchen represent significant investment in the property, while immaculate presentation throughout means the next owner can simply unpack and begin enjoying it. And then there is the garden. Facing south, beautifully secure and directly connected to the living accommodation, it brings another dimension to the house and makes this a home to enjoy throughout the seasons. A Lovely First Impression A gated courtyard creates an attractive introduction to the property, beautifully finished with porcelain paving and enclosed by fencing to provide a defined and low-maintenance outside space. The recently installed composite entrance door opens into a useful porch — somewhere to leave the outside world behind before entering the house. Storage has been particularly well considered. One cupboard houses the new Worcester digital gas boiler, while a second provides excellent space for coats, shoes and everyday essentials. Beyond, the inner hallway leads naturally towards the principal rooms, with the staircase rising to the first floor. Tucked beneath it is one of the property's surprises. This is far more than the usual under-stairs cupboard; its unusually generous proportions create a genuinely versatile additional space. It is currently invaluable for storage but could equally become a compact home-working area, gaming den or hobby space. A Kitchen With Personality The kitchen has been intelligently updated, retaining perfectly good cabinetry but giving it an entirely new identity. Professionally refinished in a sophisticated blue, the doors are complemented by stone-toned splashback tiling and grey-washed flooring, resulting in a scheme that feels both contemporary and individual. There is an excellent range of wall and base storage, together with space for a freestanding cooker, plumbing for a washing machine and provision for an additional under-counter appliance. A stainless-steel sink sits beneath the large front-facing window, bringing plenty of natural light across the working area. A cleverly utilised recess provides a natural home for a full-height fridge freezer without encroaching on the main kitchen. Yet perhaps the best thing about this room is what happens next. Made for Everyday Life The kitchen opens naturally into a wonderfully flexible second reception room. Currently used for dining, it could just as comfortably become an informal sitting room, family room or garden room. There is even potential for a future owner to explore opening the two rooms more fully into one another if a larger open-plan kitchen and living space were preferred. As it stands, however, the arrangement works beautifully. There is room for everyone to gather around the table while the cook remains part of the conversation, and sliding glazed doors provide a constant view of the garden beyond. On sunny days, open them and the room extends straight onto the porcelain terrace, allowing life to flow effortlessly between inside and out. Somewhere to Retreat The separate sitting room offers a quieter counterpoint. A large south-facing window draws sunshine deep into the room, reinforcing the sense of light that characterises so much of the house. Natural wood-toned flooring provides warmth underfoot, while a ceiling rose and coving introduce a subtle touch of traditional detailing. A contemporary electric feature fire creates the focal point and gives the room something of a media-wall feel, while generous proportions allow plenty of space for comfortable seating. It is an uncomplicated, welcoming room — somewhere to close the door at the end of the day and settle in. Two Bedrooms With Space to Breathe Upstairs, the generous proportions continue. There are two excellent double bedrooms, both large enough to accommodate a super-king-size bed — something that immediately distinguishes the house from many two-bedroom properties. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive. An entire wall has been transformed into floor-to-ceiling fitted storage, with mirrored doors concealing an extensive arrangement of hanging rails, shelving and integrated drawers. The effect is wonderfully practical while allowing the bedroom itself to remain calm and uncluttered. A large south-facing window ensures the room is flooded with natural light. The second bedroom is another genuinely substantial double. Again enjoying a sunny south-facing aspect, it is softly decorated in neutral tones with carpeting underfoot, providing a restful room with plenty of flexibility for furniture. A naturally lit landing connects the first-floor accommodation and also provides access to the loft, where the current owner has added further insulation. There is also a fully shelved airing cupboard, adding yet more useful storage. Bathroom & Separate WC The bathroom is finished in an understated neutral palette, with full-height white tiling relieved by a subtle stone-effect decorative border. A bath has an electric shower above and glazed screen, accompanied by a pedestal wash hand basin and mirrored cabinet. Natural light is provided by a window. The WC is sensibly positioned separately and incorporates a close-coupled toilet, additional pedestal wash hand basin, chrome heated towel rail and its own window. It is another example of a house that has been arranged with everyday practicality in mind. Follow the Sun And then we come to the garden. Enjoying a south-facing aspect, this is a genuinely lovely outdoor space and one that feels intrinsically connected to the house. Sliding doors open directly from the dining/garden room onto a smart porcelain-paved terrace — exactly the sort of place where morning coffee can turn into an afternoon outside and, eventually, dinner in the evening sun. An L-shaped lawn introduces greenery without demanding excessive maintenance, complemented by gravelled sections around the garden. The whole space is securely enclosed, making it particularly suitable for children and pets. The current owner has even incorporated additional fencing designed to help prevent house cats from escaping — a thoughtful detail that will be especially appreciated by fellow cat owners. It is private, manageable and wonderfully sunny: a garden designed to be used rather than simply looked at. A Home That Has Been Cared For Perhaps what comes across most strongly is that this has been a much-loved home. The improvements have not simply been cosmetic. replaced windows, a composite entrance door, a replaced Worcester digital gas boiler and additional loft insulation have addressed many of the practical considerations of home ownership, while the refreshed kitchen and immaculate decorative condition have ensured the house feels fresh and current. What remains is for someone else to make it theirs. For a first-time buyer, couple, downsizer or anyone searching for a beautifully presented home with exceptional bedroom sizes and a sunny garden, there is an enormous amount to like. Open the doors to the garden, let the sunshine in and settle down — as much of the hard work has already been done.
