Broad Street, Cannock

REF: JC0739 - Built in 1898 as the mine manager’s house, this handsome red-brick home on Broad Street has seen Cannock grow and change around it but it’s never lost its sense of stature. What once was a symbol of early industrial success has been completely reimagined into a modern, elegant family home that blends period grace with contemporary design. Think high ceilings, feature panelling, rich tones, and light-filled rooms that feel as considered as they are comfortable.

Step through that distinctive arched doorway framed by manicured hedges and you’ll instantly feel the care and attention that’s gone into every inch of this house. The hallway is bright, detailed, and full of character, with statement lighting, crisp wall panelling and that classic tiled floor you only find in homes of this era.

At the front, the lounge is a proper grown-up space. The bay window floods the room with natural light while neutral walls and soft gold accents create an intimate, luxurious feel perfect for a quiet evening in or a film night with the family as the open fire crackles.

The kitchen at the back is where the home really comes alive. It’s been completely transformed with elegant cabinetry, a central island, and quality finishes that make every mealtime feel like an occasion. There’s an open fire, space to cook, chat, and gather. Everything a family home should be.

Off the hallway, you’ll also find a beautifully finished home office ideal for remote work or running a business along with a stylish downstairs W.C. that carries the same design flair as the rest of the home.

The conservatory is one of those spaces that quietly becomes a favourite. Flooded with natural light, it works year-round, a playroom in the winter, an entertaining space in summer, or simply a place to enjoy your morning coffee while looking out onto the garden.

Upstairs, the main bedroom is pure calm. Spacious, elegantly dressed, and finished with thoughtful detailing, from the feature wall to the soft lighting. The second bedroom continues that sense of style, finished in deep blue with fitted wardrobes, while the third is the sweetest pink retreat perfect for a child or guest.

And then there’s the bathroom. It’s bold, it’s beautiful, and it looks like it belongs in a boutique hotel. Panelled walls, marble tiling, gold fixtures and a freestanding bath. Every detail feels designed, not just fitted.

Outside, the garden feels private and full of life. With mature greenery, patio space for dining, and a little “secret garden” energy that you just don’t get with newer builds. It’s a space that’s both low maintenance and full of potential, whether that’s barbecues with friends or kids playing in the sun.

To the left-hand side of the house, the owners have purchased the adjoining land to create a private driveway, giving that rare combination of off-road parking and a central location.

This home is the perfect example of how old and new can work together. Rich in history, yet fully adapted to modern living. A piece of Cannock’s story, beautifully rewritten for today.


Location

Broad Street sits right at the heart of Cannock, and it’s one of those locations that gives you the best of both worlds. Step outside and you’re minutes from the town centre, coffee shops, restaurants, supermarkets and the Designer Outlet are all within easy reach, yet come back home and it feels quiet, settled and full of character.

It’s a street steeped in history, lined with handsome period homes that remind you of Cannock’s heritage. There’s a real sense of pride here houses that have been loved, restored, and cared for and 70 Broad Street fits right in with that story.

For anyone who loves the outdoors, Cannock Chase is just a short drive away. Whether it’s early-morning dog walks through the forest, weekend bike rides, or picnics with the kids, it’s one of Staffordshire’s most beautiful spots and it’s practically on your doorstep.

Commuting is a breeze too. Cannock and Hednesford train stations both have direct links to Birmingham, and the M6, M6 Toll and A5 are all within a few minutes’ drive. You can be in the city in under 40 minutes, yet come home to a proper house with space, history, and a garden.

Schools in the area have a solid reputation, with plenty of choice for families, and the community here still has that welcoming, small-town warmth that’s hard to find elsewhere.
