Jessie Road, Walsall, WS9

A fully refurbished four-bedroom family home with space to live, space to unwind and room to park

Some homes look good in photos. This one feels even better when you walk in. 11 Jessie Road has been completely refurbished from top to bottom, and the care that has gone into it shows everywhere: herringbone flooring through the ground floor, crisp white joinery, new bathrooms and a striking contemporary kitchen. It’s the kind of home where everything has been thought through, so you can simply move in and start living.

You arrive through a newly built entrance porch into a bright hallway, with herringbone flooring that continues through the ground floor and a smart white staircase with a new carpet.

The heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen and family living space. It’s a big, sociable room, almost 27ft long. The kitchen has handleless deep-navy units, an integrated oven, an angled cooker hood, metro-tiled splashbacks and a contrasting blue peninsula that is ideal for morning coffee or homework. Industrial-style pendant lights hang over the peninsula. The space opens into a dining and family area, where wide French doors frame the garden and bring in plenty of light.

The layout also gives you somewhere to retreat to. The snug area offers a cosier space away from the kitchen, which suits a family well: everyone can be together without being on top of each other.

A separate utility room and a ground-floor shower room complete this floor, which helps a lot on busy school mornings.

Upstairs, a spacious landing leads to four bedrooms. The master bedroom has its own en-suite shower room, and the remaining rooms work well as children’s bedrooms, a guest room or a home office. A modern family bathroom serves this floor.

Outside

At the front, a large herringbone block-paved driveway gives off-road parking for several vehicles, so there’s no circling the street after work. At the rear, the French doors open onto a paved patio and a good-sized lawn bordered by hedging and fencing. It’s a safe space for children to play, with plenty of room for summer evenings outside.
