Hunters are delighted to present this well extended, Edwardian home dating back to 1903. Located on Redhall Road, just a stone’s throw from Gornal Wood village and benefitting from a host of general amenities including a butcher, greengrocer, florist, library and small supermarket. There are also two nature reserves within walking distance, whilst being within a mile of the South Staffordshire border gives easy access to Himley Hall & Park as well as Baggeridge Country Park.

Wonderfully presented throughout, this ideal family home has been restored to its current condition to showcase a period décor with true period features throughout - boasting original fireplaces, doors, door furniture and plaster mouldings, period correct mouldings, cast iron column radiators and high end brass sockets and switches to match the period feel. A recently installed combi boiler, double glazed sash and casement windows and insulation throughout the refurbishment, using the latest materials, ensures the house not only looks the part but works to keep running costs at a minimum. Furthermore, insulation has been added in the walls, the roof and between all floors and ceilings, not only in the recently completed extension, but throughout the rest of the main house too!
