Introduction & Exterior

Originally purchased in 2021 and therefore with seven years remaining on the NHBC warranty, this fabulous modern home in Burntwood will prove extremely popular to all viewers. With the property being semi-detached at the rear, viewers would be forgiven for mistaking the home as detached with its attractive double-fronted appearance.

The property has off-road parking supplied by a tandem tarmac driveway to the side of the property. In between the house and driveway is the private garden. A secure gate leads into the garden from the driveway and the garden comprises of lawn laid to the boundaries, with a full-width and deep section of decking that has plenty of room for outdoor furniture to be positioned outside of the French doors from the lounge. Tall wooden fencing and brick wall supplies the boundaries.

Ground Floor

As guest entre the home via the composite front door, they are brought into a welcoming hallway with plenty of space to remove coats and shoes. This lovely, carpeted area has doors leading off to the kitchen, lounge, and guest WC with wash basin, as well as there being a handy storage closet to the immediate right. The plush carpet continues ahead up the winding staircase to the first floor.

The lounge to the right is a generous reception room for the new owners to place a sofa suite around an entertainment unit and still have space for sideboards and other furniture. Natural light is allowed in via a double-glazed window to the front and the French patio doors to the side, that open out to the garden.

Like the lounge, the kitchen to the left of the hallway stretches the full length of the house and has an eye-catching suite at the rear of the room with a clear space at the front for a family dining table. The suite includes a chest-height double oven, four-burner gas hob and a composite one-and-a-half bowl sink and drainer. Dual aspect windows provide the natural light to the kitchen and the room’s presentation is perfectly finished by wood-effect vinyl flooring.

First Floor

The gallery landing is a lovely feature that guests will really enjoy as they make their way upstairs. From here there are doors leading off to two double bedrooms, a single bedroom, the family bathroom, and a deep storage closet. Above the landing is an access hatch to a thickly insulated loft space.

Bedroom one is positioned above the lounge and is an impressive double bedroom with a recess for further furniture requirements. As with the other bedrooms there is a double-glazed window to ensure the room is lovely and bright. The room also has access to a stylish en suite shower room that features a wide cubicle, wash basin and toilet.

Bedroom two is another generous double room that comfortably fits a double bed and wardrobe as depicted in the pictures. Bedroom three is a very good-sized single bedroom and the current owners have enhanced this space with fetching panelling to the walls. Finally, the family bathroom is another stylish suite with a bathtub, wash basin and toilet and – like the entire house – it has been tastefully decorated.

TRANSPORT LINKS

Hayward Drive is less than a five-minute drive from the A5 junction at Newtown and even closer to Junction T6 of the M6 Toll Road. These makes journeys to Birmingham, Cannock, Lichfield and Stafford very easy.

For trains, a twenty-minute drive (naturally longer by bus) to Lichfield provides access to two main train stations. These are Lichfield City and Lichfield Trent Valley train station, with the latter offering fabulous commuting links due to its split-level platform for the West Coast Mainline and the Cross City Line. This means there are regular services to Birmingham, Sutton Coldfield and Redditch as well as national routes to London, Liverpool, Manchester and even the occasional Glasgow service. Train services to Birmingham are also available from Cannock via the Chase Line.

For buses, the new owners can take a reasonable walk to Chasetown High Street where there are regular services to Cannock, Lichfield, and Walsall.

SCHOOLS & AMENITIES

Parents will be delighted that this home is within such short walking range of the catchment secondary school, Erasmus Darwin Academy, which holds a Good (2) Ofsted rating. The catchment primary school is likely to be Ridgeway Primary School which is located just over a half mile away and also holds a Good (2) rating. Going one better with an Outstanding (1) rating is St Joseph & St Theresa Catholic School which is less than half a mile away.

Furthermore, at the beginning of nearby St Annes Close is Chasetown Community Primary School which cares for children with special needs. All the above information regarding schools has been researched using the Staffordshire schools website. We do always recommend that buyers check with the local authority first, before confirming catchment.

Chasewater Country Park is a very short walk from the home and is a lovely place for recreational walks, wildlife spotting and exercise routes. Between the development and Chasewater is Burntwood Rugby Club and Chasetown FC. For shopping, Burntwood Shopping Centre at Sankey’s Corner is a short drive away and has a plethora of well-known and independent shops and businesses. Near to Sankey’s Corner are two well-known supermarkets and a restaurant.
